My best recommendation. The staff were so nice and helpful. Immediately you felt as a part of their family Eg.: When we came back from our first full day safari, they greeted us – with dogs, puppies and all – just to welcome us back. Landlord is a very skilled ranger and gave us a bush-walk, teaching us about the fauna and how it is to share fence with The Krüger. Landlady is a fantastic chef, preparing healthy inspiring dishes and great lunchboxes. Huge room and also a big furnished patio. Bonfire every evening to the sound of zebras or monkeys and a lovely pool to dip into. A perfect spot if you travel in a group and I am sure that singles and couples always will feel included as well.

Nice hosts, they prepared dinner for us for 150 ZAR/person on request, but the dinner was a 3-course buffet. Beef stew with rice, vegetable salad with dressing, Greek salad, and fruit salad for dessert. I have to say the food was the best of the whole holiday I have spent in Africa. Big comfortable bed and pillows, shower for 2. Close to Kruger park.

Everything about the property is great, lovely dinners, lovely ladies from reception to the serving. Lovely room, very clean and cosy. The location also great, I’ve travelled more than three times and I use a small hatchback but the roads aren’t bad.

We felt very special in this beautiful place. The service was outstanding. The pool area was the perfect place after an exhausting safari. Also the view platform is very nice and if you are lucky you can see some animals as well. Plus point: There are three very friendly ostriches in the place. Thanks a lot for a very special time for us. Highly recommended! Dinner was also delicious in a modern and artful Restaurant.

The place is incredible. The tent was luxury, with colonial furniture and wonderful decorations. The allocation was perfect, in front of the lake, where some animals came to visit us at night. The staff is amazing: friendly, professional and very well skilled (we already miss Pelon!!). We enjoyed the game drives and bush walks. Special mention to the restaurant: fine cuisine.

A beautiful, authentic bush camp in a glorious setting surrounded by bushland and wildlife. Barry, Wendy and their 2 young children were wonderful hosts. We had a delicious BBQ in the evening served under the stars around a camp fire. The beds and ensuite bathrooms were fine. After an extensive full English breakfast we said our good byes in washed car, what a service! Thank you Barry and Wendy for an unforgettable stay!
