"Quiet and peaceful"

10.0

Wunderbare Lodge mit tollem Garten und sehr schönen Appartments. Sehr freundliche Begrüßung. Toller Spaziergang zur Schlucht. Obwohl Caffee und Restaurant geschlossen waren, bekamen wir Lasagne zum Diner.

Auf der Terrasse fehlte ein bequemer Stuhl oder eine Liege. Nachts gab es ein paar Mücken.

"Exceptional. I cannot fault the experience. Location is worthwhile. Will be back :)"

9.0

Superb stay. Location is great. Facility is fantastic, and VERY SPACIOUS, which was a pleasant surprise. The staff, Bongi and Armstrong had flawless customer service and helped me surprise my partner for her birthday weekend during our stay. Myself and the rest of the family are coming back :) !

Depending on where your room is on the facility, you may be out of range for the Wifi. For my partner and I, this wasn’t an issue as we like to be present in the moment when travelling- also, if you are in range, the Wifi works fantastic.

"Gorgeous setting near Oribi Gorge"

10.0

The setting of the Lodge amongst farmlands, dams, Gorges and the Oribi Flats leans itself to be a base for various outdoor activities. The many on-site facilities and gardens invite guests to wander around, including a short walk to the famous Wild 5 activity center and the Farmer's View Coffee shop. If you like hiking, the Lodge is the perfect accommodation since the Oribi Gorge is just down the road. My unit spanned over two floors with a balcony overlooking huge trees attracting lots of birds.
