Bosch Luys Kloof is a special piece of land in the Karoo. It is family owned and has been transformed into a private nature reserve. The vision and strive is to restore it to a true nature reserve instead of an artificial commercial development.
The reserve’s attraction to guests is its unspoilt natural beauty, remoteness and tranquility. Each building, and in particular the guest units, has wonderful views.
The views from the mountain pass, shortly after entering the reserve, enticed the following historical remark from Thomas Bain and Dr Atherstone in 1871:
“…A scene burst upon us I shall not forget in a hurry. Breathless I gazed down the valley on the boundless sea of blue mountains, cones and peaks, table tops and jagged lines of hillocks tingled with the faint blush of glowing rays of the unseen sun. What a wild charm thrown over the distant labyrinth of hills in the soft glow of early morn.”
This particular vista was also sketched by the known Sophia Gray in 1871.
