Guest Reviews
- Fabienne (8/5): Un air de Montagne - Le calme, le personnel archi réactif. La décoration un peu désuète et les pièces un peu sombres.
- heather (10/5): -
- Natalia (10/5): - Beautiful location, amazing quaint lodge! Easy to find, great instructions provided on how to get there with helpful recommendations from the host! N/a
- Екатерина (6/5): -
- Alex (9/5): We had a relaxing great time - Great location for accessing the Blyde River Cannon. The kitchen was great, and having the house and dishes cleaned everyday was really awesome. The double bed ended up being two single beds next to each other, which is not what i was expecting.
- Shailendra (9/5): -
- Angela (5/5): - Lovely location and beautiful well kept grounds, good beds It was dark and cold in the houses. The interior definitely needs a face lift especially the bathrooms
- Camilla (10/5): - Beautiful in every way 😊
- Shanaya (10/5): we can’t wait to come again!!! - it was really beautiful, clean, calm and peaceful. we loved it there.
- NIR (9/5): בילוי מושלם בחיק המשפחה - המיקום היה סביר למי שרוצה לטייל באיזור האמור, כל המתקנים קיימים, ניתן שירות כביסה במקום. לא היו הערות
- Jerry (10/5): -
- Dionisios (10/5): -
- Lombard (10/5): So worth it! ❤️ - The Owner is very kind. The place has stunning views and is very conveniently located. We loved every minute of our stay! N/A
- Michelle (8/5): Neat, Tidy and well-equipped unit close to Graskop. - The Accommodation was clean and we were upgraded to a larger unit free of charge. The unit has everything you may need for a nice breakaway. The Wi-Fi didn't extend to our unit, and the TV was not functional, but we managed without those. We assumed the bad weather played a part in our internet issues. It would be nice if the unit had built in fans as the location can get very hot and humid in the summer. There was a small standing fan that we used, but maybe as an improvement a larger fan can be looked at.
- ylenia (9/5): -
- Gilles (9/5): -
- Felix (10/5): Perfect place to stay for Blyde River Canyon trip - Very close to everything, about 10 mins from Graskop, about 30 mins from the northern canyon viewpoints, 5 mins to God’s Window. Cosy little cottages, very comfortable and spacious. The owner was friendly and told us interesting things about his British heritage! Gave us lots of info on the surrounding area too. Only thing I can think of is the shower is quite slippery and has a concave design which isn’t the most comfortable, but that’s a minor detail.
- Igor (9/5): -
- Louis (6/5): Fair - The location was very central for many trips The facilities were very outdated and the shower didn’t have shower gel or shampoos and that for an 3 star?
- Bernard (10/5): Parfait - L'endroit est bien situé pour la région. Ras
- Nicholas (8/5): -
- Cameron (9/5): Wonderful scenic views with comfortabable and relaxed accommodation. - The central location to a lot of attractions was great. It was in a wonderfully quiet area with not much going on except for nature, exactly what we wanted. Lot’s of space and a wonderful setup.
- T. Hyvärinen (10/5): -
- Lukas .. (10/5): - Es war ein wunderbarer Aufenthalt mit einem tollen, fürsorglichen Gastgeber! Die Unterkunft bietet alles, was man braucht und ist darüber hinaus sehr wohnlich und gemütlich eingerichtet. Die Lage ist super, um in der Region Ausflüge zu unternehmen.
- Lesego (8/5): -
- Heike (6/5): -
- Robert (10/5): - So pleased with this Lodge, lovely location just outside Graskpp near Lisbon Falls. Room has everything you could want, very comfortable and had a great sleep
- Co-13 (9/5): Go there! - De locatie is geweldig!
De rust, de dierengeluiden, de omgeving. Er is ongetwijfeld een prachtige sterrenhemel te zien als het onbewolkt is.
Mooie tuin met heel veel vogeltjes Niks!
- Andries (10/5): -
- Mary-Ellen (8/5): A peaceful two-day stay with a helpful but unobtrusive host. - Lovely secluded location. Nothing not to like.
- Siboniso (9/5): -
- Raoul (10/5): - Lovely place and the host ist really friendly and provided us with great adives on what to do in the area.
- Manon (9/5): Simple, efficace, localisation parfaite je recommande ! - Localisation parfaite
Nous avons fait Lisbon et Berlin fall puis Three Rondalvels une belle escale pour aller ensuite à Kruger.
Conseil pour le petit dej, on a adoré : the chubby pig (gentillesse +++ localisation +++ rapport qualité/prix +++ Attention à ne pas conduire la nuit dangereux beaucoup de singes sur la route
- ISAAC (9/5): - Todo y la amabilidad de los propietarios Una pena que por una tormenta eléctrica no hubiera wifi pero son cosas de la naturaleza
- Sydney (8/5): -
- Marils (8/5): - Cleanliness and location outside of Graskop Furnishings and interior dated and quite dark.
- Peter (9/5): - Thaba Tsweni was a tranquil place nested in the hills of Mpumalanga, next to Graskop and surrounded by many interesting places. We essentially spent the time walking and exploring the area, even went to the Kruger Park for the day. The place itself was clean and welcoming, no fuss just a genuine place to relax and chill. We will be back again hopefully soon
- Willie (8/5): Very good. - Cleanliness and excellent service.
- Joseph (8/5): - Its location
- Volker (10/5): Vielen Dank! - Lage top, Personal und Gastgeber sehr freundlich. Gemütliche Unterkunft mit allem, was man braucht. Ein paar kleine Reparaturen sind fällig, aber nichts wildes.
- Moodley (7/5): -
- Arina Fontini (4/5): - The place smelled dusty.
Not very clean.
Dishcloths and sponges were disgusting.
Knifes were dirty.
- Sander (8/5): -
- Jeanie (4/5): Disappointing - The cleaning lady was very nice. The layout of the unit we had was awkward and uncomfortable. The unit was accommodating a bed in the lounge which made it all very cramped. Fine for students away for a weekend needing a place to crash at night. We had to make a late booking and there was little available in the area. We won't stay there again.
Not nice to try and watch the TV with the layout. The open plan kitchen with little lounge was very cramped and the small sofa and chair against the wall were super hard and uncomfortable. The small outside patio was fine if you had no neighbours as a small wall divided you. If you had neighbours it was as if they were with you. The curtains were dirty and the extra blankets felt like they needed a wash. So much that could've been fixed. The pictures in the frames had all slipped badly out of their mountings, no place in the kitchen to put any groceries and an extra fridge sitting in the kitchen taking up space. Bad lighting in the unit. All very disappointing.
- Victoria (8/5): -
- Noémie (9/5): - Un emplacement idéal à quelques pas de Graskop, parfait pour découvrir Lisbon & Berlin Falls, God's window et les alentours.
Un grand espace de vie
- Stephanie (9/5): -
- Botha (9/5): Excelent - Neat and clean WiFi was slow
- Redelinghuys (9/5): A definite gem! - We had a wonderful stay! The property was clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. Our host was super friendly and accommodating to my partner getting hurt and we had to move our stay up with a day. The surroundings were peaceful and serene. We'd definitely book again and highly recommend!"
- Geoffrey (10/5): -
- Matthias (10/5): - Wonderful property, very convenient location, clean and very well equipped
- Michael (8/5): -
- Melissa (9/5): Sichere Lage für alle Vorhaben rund um den Blyde River Canyon - Der Besitzer war sehr nett und wir konnten interessante Gespräche mit ihm führen. Die Unterkunft hat eine perfekte Lage und wirkte sicher. Die Wohnung war voll ausgestattet. Wirkt etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber ist Geschmacksache. Kein wirklicher Grund.
- A (9/5): - Wendel was very welcoming and gave us precious advices for Kruger.
Simple but confortable accommodation. Nothing
- Peter Ernst (8/5): -
- Justine (9/5): - Incroyable domaine, nous avons reçu de supers informations concernant la région, endroit à visiter et randonnée. Propriétaires très accueillants ! Pas de possibilité de restauration sur place mais ville à seulement 10min de route
- Northon Rodrigo dos Santos (10/5): - Ficamos apenas uma noite ,mas voltaríamos com certeza.
O lugar é muito bonito, espaçoso e bem tranquilo.
- Walter (3/5): Great location, not the best host in accommodating as most advertised things weren’t working. - Fire place, location and space. Wifi didn’t work, TV didn’t work and there were restrictions that Sundays people must check out earlier on top of not sticking to the usual 10am check out standards. Also they charge for washing pots if burned.
It’s basic things which are fine but I would call it luxury like the claim.
- Peter (10/5): - Sehr freundlicher Empfang mit Hinweisen und Erklärung was , wo zu tun ist um die Region zu erkunden.
- Adrian (8/5): - Brilliant location and setting. Nice walk and run around to the falls
- Armand (10/5): Excelent location for getting around all the sight seeing spots. - The location is actually the best for travelling around.
The owners will tell you about places to swim that aren't widely known, if you ask politely.
It's clean and gets cleaned every day. The Manager checks to see if the cleaners did their job after everything is done.
- rogerio (9/5): - Lugar é lindo, fomos recebidos muito bem inclusive com boas dicas, O fogao esquentou muito lentamente, claramente se fossemos fazer algo mais elaborado ou demoraria demais ou desistiriamos. Chuveiro tem uma quantidade de agua quente, apos isso fica bem morno,
- Eloïse (8/5): - Grandes chambres et grand espace extérieur Un peu sombre à l'intérieur et il n'y avait plus l'aire de jeux pour enfants
- Lisa (7/5): -
- Kadja (10/5): Es war einfach Mega. Würde es sofort weiter empfehlen -
- Christophe (8/5): -
- Ammar (10/5): Best place to stay in Panorama Route - The location, approach to the property, esthetics, cleanliness and best of all, value for money. Not much to NOT like
- Sahil (4/5): - Location
- Helen (10/5): - Perfect location - in the countryside but so close to Graskop and a convenient drive from all the main Panorama Route sights -
- Sophie (7/5): -
- Marie-Louise (7/5): Locatie prima, geen restaurant in omgeving - Ligging, perfect op panorama route, dicht bij God’s Window, 3 Rondavels. Het fornuis in de keuken is voor slow cooking, de elektrische verwarming werkte niet. We hebben de open haard gebruikt.
Badkamer is gedateerd
- Sajeeshkumar (8/5): Very good - Good location
As all view points and falls are near
Kitchen do have all appliances
WIFI wasnt stable
Nothing for kids to enjoy- please consider
- Pretorius (8/5): Very good -

- Ross (9/5): Superb -
- Lygia (10/5): Ótima parada - Ótima hospedagem em Graskop, chalés amplos com infra. Recomendo
- Kirsty (10/5): Comfortable unit in a peaceful location - Perfectly located for the Panorama Route sites. Nice to be able to walk to Lisbon and Berlin Falls. Fireplace was great for winter
- Winlove (9/5): Location is great! Close proximity to most places to visit while in Lowveld. Literally less than 5mins away from Berlin - Location is great! Close proximity to most places to visit while in Lowveld. Literally less than 5mins away from Berlin Falls. We rented the whole place! Each room area have kitchen and braai facilities. Clean room and in good condition.
The owner welcomed us so nicely even we checked in late in the evening. Very speedy checking process. I wish we could have stayed more days. Definitely recommended and will stay again soon!
- Khensani (9/5): Superb -
- Gillian (9/5): NICE SERENE OVERNIGHT STAY -
- Meintjes (10/5): The place is beautifully kept, it's quiet. You wouldn't think there are other people at the Lodge. -
- Vvv (9/5): Superb - We had a family cottage witch was huge and allowed us to hand with the extended family staying in one of the other rooms. nice setting close to the Berlin waterfall witch is only a short walk away, graskoop is close by. also just 30 min drive to the hikes in blade river canyon
- Keith (8/5): Great spot for an overnighter - Location near Panorama Route. Quiet. Neat and tidy. Very nicely built accommodation Needed heating and better lighting
- Slowglen (9/5): Superb -
- Danie (7/5): Good -
- Le (9/5): Superb - Great location, friendly host Would have preferred another unit, and the option to select a specific unit for our stay.
- Andre (9/5): Superb -
- Fumisa (7/5): Please invest in an electric gate it’s unfair for us as guests to get out of the car at night to manually open and close - I liked the area where it was situated.
I liked how peaceful and serene it was. It has a manual gate so you literally have to keep going in and out of the car to close and open it. It’s really burdensome and the owner should invest in an electric gate.

- Monica (10/5): Exceptional -
- Simona (10/5): A Place to Stay: Longer! - Location, chalet inside and outside and the Library Nothing
