Ou Kraal Tented Lodge

Staying at the lodge was a very special and unforgettable experience. Location: the lodge is in an amazing picturesque location, secluded but still accessible for beautiful animals. We were welcomed by a giraffe on the way to the location and then we saw gazelles and impalas during sunrise too. Was so lovely! Also it is very close to the game reserves in the area, perfect! Facilities: The Lodge was so nice, we had a really nice spacious tent with a bathroom where even warm water was provided for showers and filtered water for drinking. We had a fridge and kitchen facilities so we could make our own food. There was also a swimming pool. Breakfast and dinner: we also ordered breakfast which was great and we asked if we can have dinner too. Anton himself (who runs the lodge) with his lovely company made us unforgettable barbecues every night. His hospitality is out of this world! He made us feel like we were at our best friend's house. He made us real South African specialities for a really reasonable price such as braai which were home made and tasted like heaven. We stayed at the campfire till late and talked long about everything with them. Was absolutely fantastic, it felt like we visited family. Our kids enjoyed it so much too as they could play with their kids. Anton is very knowledgeable, he helped us with so much information regarding excursions and he knows every animal and tree in the Pilanesberg park. He even does walking tours. He is such a great host, really took care of us and I could not recommend him and his lodge enough. He even organised some souvenirs for the kids that they adored. The only negative is that we could not stay longer. Thank you for this wonderful stay Anton, I hope we will see you again but we will definitely keep you all in our hearts forever.

That we had to leave 😪

Tent was amazing and place is also good for family we can refresh our minds,Anton and kgomotso helped us with everything we need or ask with a smile

Closed parking or carport is not there but I understood because aton the owner he is still working hard to get everything right maybe next visit will be different,even they build a carport with woods will be perfect

It was a great surprise for us. Gave us a weekend to slow down, watch the beautiful nature around, meet giraffes on the road.

A little tricky to find via GoogleMap

Fantastic setup

it was so peaceful

nothing at all

The host was so informative and very friendly. The place absolute lived up to expectations, we were looking for the perfect balance between home comforts and an authentic bosveld experience. The children loved the open space to explore! A special bonus was having the wildebeest and gloworms pay a visit that evening.

Very minor issue and nothing the host could do but, despite the road been very far from the camp, because it was a beautiful clear night and so very quiet, we could still hear some traffic.

Out of town with wildlife roaming around
