"Absolutely fabulous"

10.0

We were greeted by the housekeeper who was very pleasant and showed us to our room which opened out onto the garden overlooking the river. Bed extremely comfortable bathroom very clean with many extras. The hosts organised river boat cruise that afternoon which was lovely. Are in local restaurant for dinner. We chose the private game tour of Addo which is from the hotel with Tim who is Suzette (host) husband. After early and good breakfast we set off for our nearly 10 hour game drive. Tim was amazing so informative we learned a lot in that tour. The B & B had provided many bottles of iced water (essential as it was 35v most of the time) and also a picnic lunch. There were only 4 of us on the drive ourselves and a lovely young German couple and we all got along so well together. In the evening we went for dinner together and also met up with the hosts who were very interesting to talk to - a fabulous evening. Breakfast next morning delicious with a whole loaf of freshly baked bread per table. We had a fabulous stay and would definitely recommend Happy Jackal to anyone. Keep up the good work Suzette and Tim!

We loved our stay! Warm welcome. Room is very clean, and interior is magnificent! Delicious breakfast.

Breakfast is quite late, if you go to Addo. Also there is coffee machine in the room, but no coffee capsules :(
