Home away from home by

Betsie and Kobus could not be more welcoming and accommodating. The cottage is more than adequate and has all the comforts to keep one warm during the cold winter nights. Make sure you spend some time in Sutherland and arrange to visit the church and do a walking tour of the town. Fascinating history and very friendly locals. Obviously one visits SAAO and SALT but would recommend the day tour as you get to see SALT up close and the views from the mountain top are out of this world. The stars are exceptional and the local tour is really interesting. Dress warmly as no matter how many layers you have on you will still be cold. Being able to cater for yourself is really nice and the breakfast served by Betsie and Kobus is wonderful on the enclosed, warm, sunny veranda. Highly recommend The Galaxy.


GREAT STARS AT THE GALAXY by

We stayed at The Galaxy on Saturday night and encountered wonderful hospitality from Betsie and Kobus Muller, the charming and delightful owners of this quaint B&B. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable, the breakfast which they personally served was generous and tasty, typical Karoo morning fare from fruit cocktail (including prickly pear), juice, warm oats with cinnamon, coffee and tea, full cooked breakfast of eggs, sausage, bacon, etc..it kept us bikers going for half the day! And there was very little about Sutherland and its history the Mullers did not know and they share their fascinating knowledge enthusiastically, and all of this for R320 a head. We will be back! We cannot recommend The Galaxy highly enough - what a pleasure. Thank you again Betsie and Kobus


Spacious, comfortable and immaculate by

Clean, spacious and comfortable. Welcoming Earl Grey tea, coffee and rusks set out for guests. Lovely garden and bird life - we enjoyed watching the red-faced Mouse birds in the blossom trees just out side our bedroom window. Many thanks!


Chill out at the Galaxy by

We have just spent three marvellous days slowing down and relaxing in Sutherland. With easy access to the stargazing ( if you have any flexibility in your schedule, check the phase of the moon for the best effects ), the Galaxy offers clean and very comfortable accommodation and a charming host in Kobus.
