The setting by the dam is Idyllic with a constant stream of birds and animals. The beds are very comfortable and the outdoor shower and large (indoor) bath are a real treat. The breakfast box and welcome box were more than adequate.

Peace and quiet, beautiful location. Nice wooden cottages with good beds and bathroom. Very helpful and kind owners. Great breakfast. In the winter they supply wood for the dure place and electric blankets which are very comfortable, as it can be cold during the evenings and nights. We would definitely book again!

The breakfast was so delicious, and I particularly appreciated the accommodation of our dietary requirements. Loved the fast and efficient service. Location of the place was perfect and easy to find. I was touched by our hosts Tessa and Gail who left their Christmas party early to welcome us.

This stay was unplanned and booked last minute. And we didn´t regret it! Tasty food, great wine and a lodge with a view over the game farm. The 2 game tours (evening and morning) ,included into the room rate, are fascinating. We saw all big 5, except leopard, but therefore Cheetahs on the hunt.
