    29 August 2010

    "A lovely setting to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. A wonderful view from our chalet and the lodge house deck. Very friendly staff and great service. We were very lucky to have a number of great game drives and in particular saw a Black Rhino up close as well as many other game and interesting birds across the reserve. Special thanks to Johan, our ranger, for his wide range of nature knowledge."

  • "Moorhouse family - August 2006"

    24 August 2006

    "Our family had a very enjoyable 2 night stay at this luxurious and peaceful lodge.The location is wonderful, although you need to be prepared for a long drive along a pretty basic dirt road that was almost impassable by two wheel drive car after a night of heavy rain!The staff were very attentive and the food/wine was very good, although preparation was a bit of a challenge following a power cut.The kids loved the swimming pool and the Lodge's dog and cat and this partly made up for the wild-life viewing which was limited by poor weather."
