    Thanks Hennie, we had a wonderful stay at Thabile Lodge, unfortunately only for one night. The room is perfectly cleaned, and we felt like at home talking with you and your wife in the dinner room, next to the wood stove and stroking your lovely dogs! And last but not least, the dinner and the breakfast were amazing!

    We loved the dogs, but be aware there are a couple of beagles and a terrier in residence. They love attention but if you are not used to them, it may worry you. Look carefully for the turnoff to Vergelegen, the owner is still battling the authorities to get a roadside sign.

    Beautifully run with excellent meals. We had supper and breakfast. The bedroom was large with a king size bed. The appointments are bush quaint but very welcoming.

    Amazing place to stay in the Karoo. Rustic lodge style - very South African 🇿🇦. We loved it so much we stayed another night. Len and his team were so welcoming and fun. Breakfasts were yummy. Dinner was really delicious - we ate there both nights. The garden is beautiful, views and sunsets amazing. Great place to stay. Thanks for having us!

    The accommodation exceeded our expectations! Unfortunately, we were only there for one night as we were passing through. Definitely a place where you can and should stay longer. Beautiful outdoor facilities. The dinner was terrific and the breakfast was also very good. The accommodation is furnished with great attention to detail.

    Booking.com messed up the booking, and Len and Hennie sorted us out to their expense and not ours. A big thank you to them as it added to our holiday. The facilities were beautiful, the views were spectacular and the beds were the best I slept in my entire time in south Africa. We will be back when we visit south Africa again. Thank you

    We hate to say anything negative because it was such a great find, the only "suggestion" would be to have softer single beds :-)

    The food prepared by Hennie the chef was just absolutely incredible, attention to detail and a creative twist to each meal we had. The personal services and friendliness was world class from all staff. Len has everything covered and the property has an attention to detail which is worldclass.

    Other guests being rude to staff obviously you get theses people who don’t enjoy life and would find themselves being miserable even if they were in paradise

    It’s like staying with family : we came here last year as its dog friendly: this year we came back as we so enjoyed the ambiance relaxed atmosphere and the layed back vibe of the whole place it’s like being in a loving family members home ❤️
