From the moment you drive through the gates of this small farm a sense of well-being washes over you and the warm welcome makes you feel as if you belong. You will arrive at this historic homestead and upon entering breathtaking views will unfold over an infinity pool which descends into a natural water hole at which game is present in the early morning and late afternoon. It is not often that one gets the opportunity to luxuriate in the tranquility of the Karoo countryside knowing that the town centre of Graaff-Reinet is a brief 5 minute drive away.

The Manor at Samara is a place to take time out and experience the serenity of the Karoo countryside. Relax on the veranda with a beverage of your choice and enjoy the vast landscape that is on your doorstep. The Manor House is for the exclusive use of up to 8 guests in luxury, air-conditioned en suite rooms with views over an extraordinary Karoo mountain landscape. The Manor at Samara is unique in its warm design which reflects the local landscape and traditions whilst retaining a lovely light modern twist. The style of The Manor at Samara is the inspiration of well known South African designer John Zwiegelaar of John Jacob Interiors. Carved out of African mahogany, the exotic 4 poster king size beds give the rooms the appearance of a Sultan's private quarters. Dining experiences include a boma, veranda, dining room and breakfast room as well as various bush dining experiences. Relax in four spacious luxury suites, with the softest linen that lulls you to sleep. All the suites have en-suite bathrooms with free-standing antique style baths.
