"Bush cottage was good, as usual, this was our third visit. The cottage is well equipped but it is not always easy to make use of the equipment. There must be some secret code for using the TV, as I could not get anything around there to work. The seating and lighting in the living room area is, as they say, a challenge. As I said this was my third visit and the living room front door is still not secure. But having said all of that I still thoroughly enjoyed my stay as the location is perfect. There seems to be a lot less wildlife coming around to visit than before but that could be due to the very dry conditions."
"The setup is on the perfect spot for the Crocodile river. Except for the dark lighting in the house and the roof leaks in the kitchen and main bedroom, there are no shortcomings for this house. We enjoyed the animals around the house."
"Really enjoyed our stay!! Will definitely go there again"
"We had a wonderfull long weekend away at the Bush Cottage."
"Very nice accomodation, Spacious, clean, and everything you need for your holiday! Amazing view!"
"Enjoyed our stay which we unfortunately had to cut short. We left a day early due to the imminent storm. The cottage was fine - we have lived there before - but the seating in the lounge area is still abysmal. It also looks like the cottage does not get cleaned regularly as everything was covered in dust and cobwebs. The rubbish bags also had not been collected from outside for who knows when. Apart from that I would still go back to this cottage although it is expensive, my wife and I can stay B@B on the north coast cheaper than these tariffs."
"We had such a wonderful stay at Bush cottage. Very clean and comfortable little home away from home. My husband fed a Kudu and we had a few monkeys peeking through the windows in the morning and also a wildebeest mom and her baba come eat some feed right in front of us. <br/>Wis we booked it for longer but I am sure Bush Cottage will see us again."
"Very nice situated.Except for the busy seekoei rd(N1) in the late afternoons.The lounge suite is very uncomfortable and you sit very deep and strugggle to get out.We had alot of power failures and there was not enough alternative lighting.The oil lamps had oil but no lamp pits.<br/><br/>On the good site we had alot of animals visiting us on a daily basis."
"We enjoyed our holiday so much and the bush cottage was amazing, it was neat and tidy and gave us all the comfort we needed. Will definitely return."
"Very nice place!! Can really recomend it."
"Thank you so much for an amazing stay!<br/><br/>You got the view to the crocodile river, where you see all kind off animals! And at night you hear the hynas and lions calling!:)<br/><br/>If this is not enough, the giraffes, zebas, impalas, bushbabys and a lot more animals will visit and rest in your garden<3<br/>We even found a leopard track 20 m from the house!!:)<br/><br/>The house got everything you need+aircon.<br/><br/>All in one it was the perfect break away!<br/><br/>All the best!<br/><br/>"
"<p>We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bush Cottage in Marloth.</p><p>We have visited Marloth on many occasions and this was by far the best privately owned accommodation we have rented.</p><p>Bush Cottage is in the perfect location right across the river.</p><p>This is definitely our go to destination in future when visiting Marloth.</p>"
"<p>We had such a lovely time here and we have a toddler. The house is equipped with everything, no need to bring anything along for the kitchen, braai, potjie or even camping chairs.</p><p>The house is clean - home away from home. Everything is in working order... and if you are wondering if you should rent this cottage for a holiday, please do so, the pictures do not lie.</p><p>We saw elephants from the stoep almost every day</p><p></p>"
"We really enjoyed our 3-day stay at Bush Cottage despite the fact that we had no hot water our first day there. As soon as we told the owner about it, someone was at the cottage to replace the geyser. The spotting of animals, elephants, hippos on the river right across from the cottage and giraffes right in our yard made this stay amazing. Well appointed kitchen and outdoor living area. Would highly recommend Bush Cottage."
"Very nice place to stay. There was plenty game visiting the premises.we saw four of the big five across the river in Kruger Park. Keep it up Birgitta."
"we really enjoyed our stay we are booked in again for December its the perfect spot we saw 7 lion on the river bank, rhino, elephant and buffalo didn't need to drive we just walked from cottage its so nice and open we def found our future accommodation in marloth we don't need to look any further"
"The temp was really great, and the kids enjoyed the splash pool.The Crocodile river is close and can be enjoyed from the patio.We went with quite a couple ( 4 adults and 2 kids), the privacy is not optimal as all the rooms are connected as there are no ceilings."
"Very nice place. All you need and more. What a view!! Will definitely recommend!"
"We have been very happy to stay in Bush Cottage for 6 weeks. We have been in Marloth Park 2 times before, so it should be easy to find the house, but we have got post box number instead of house number, so it was a little difficult to find."
"We had a wonderful stay and will certainly be back! Bush Cottage is equipped like home! Comfortable beds, crisp bedding & lovely towels. Lovely kitchen with everything you could possibly need, gorgeous bathroom and best of all is the LOCATION! Highly recommended!"
"We had the most awesome time. We love the wildlife among us, and took every chance in feeding them the pellets that we bought. Amazing few over the river. Will definitely go back there again."
"We had a lovely stay at Bush Cottage. It is a beautiful house close to the river with a fantastic view from the deck. Thank you for letting us stay in your house that really felt like a home away from home."
