If you are looking for a luxurious experience surrounded by the peace and tranquility of the African bush and far from the distractions of the modern world where the only disturbance is the call of the magnificent fish eagle piercing the morning skies and the lazy flow of the river far below, then Huntshoek Game Lodge is the place for you. We have two different establishments which cater for all budgets and needs.
Huntsdrift is an intimate self-catering lodge ideal for small groups. There are five rooms with en-suite bathrooms and a communal open-plan lounge, dining room, bar and kitchen area that open out onto a central gathering point where guests can draw together around a crackling fire.
Huntshoek is a luxury lodge consisting of five chalets each with a private deck and magnificent views of the Fish River. The chalets have en-suite bathrooms as well as open-air showers for the adventurous. Huntshoek offers dinner, bed and breakfast with the rate per day exclusive of all beverages. Light lunches are not served on arrival but served if you stay more then one night, between breakfast and dinner.
Bring your mountain bike or walking shoes and explore this very diverse and rugged countryside which is alive with warthog, buck, zebra and wildebeest to name a few. With an abundance of bird life, it is the avid birdwatcher's delight so make sure you bring your bird guide and binoculars. Discover a surprise around every corner, from fragile flora to the slow moving tortoise; you will not be disappointed. The river offers great fresh water angling experiences and a challenge to any addicted angler or newcomer. At nightfall, sit on the deck and gaze up at an unforgettable star-studded sky or simply soak up the sounds of the bush and the beauty of a moonlit night while sipping one of our superb South African wines.
"We loved our stay at Huntshoek Lodge, the staff were amazing. Loved the gamedrive. We will definitely be back"
"Beautiful surroundings and accommodation. Huntshoek lodge was a pleasure to visit - will go again! The lodge really provides you with everything you need (even wood for the braai!). The showers are divine, the lovely fluffy beds are just what you need after a long dag of exploring the magnificent Eastern Cape, and the kitchen area is a treat with everything you could possibly need. Only problem: it's a little out of the way from Grahamstown - but if you are looking for a getaway from city life, definitely the place to be!"
"We were fortunate enough to be upgraded and were given the run of the main lodge and the Presidential Suite - what an absolute spoil. Thank you to Charles and his team - they were amazing and the location perched on the rim of the valley overlooking the Great Fish River is noting less than spectacular!!"
"We had the most amazing stay at Hutshoek Lodge on our way to the Transkei. It is beautifully appointed and situated looking out over a river. Hendrik, the manager, could not have been more helpful and welcoming. Everything was beautifully kitted and we highly recommend it."
