  "Great boma with firewood provided and clean bathrooms - an oasis after rough camping in Botswana and very conveniently close to the border at Mcarthys Rest."

• "Expected more for the price"

  19 July 2018

  "Wasn't impressed. We stayed in a half finished container type of unit - no doors inside, not even the bathroom. Terrible mattress. Gass geyser not working properly. Over priced."

• "The braai in the Lapa"

  29 May 2018

  "A faulty electricity system and no back up facility ruined our stay. No lights, no warm water although management went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Kudu fillet steaks obtained at the farm was excellent and uplifted our spirit when prepared in the braai Lapa."

• "Comfortable chalets"

• "Space!!"

  05 March 2017

  "Provided with a bag of braai wood that burned so well we bought another before we left.Choice of large sites - most with bomas.Neat, clean ablutions but toilets didn't flush properly. Didn't shower as hot water taps tingled - bad connection from electricity supply."

• "Teleurstellende ondervinding"

  18 February 2015

  "Na 'n lang, hobbelrige grondpad en uitgeput van die hitte, bereik ons Springbokpan langs die Botswana grens. By ontvangs, geen siel om ons te ontvang nie. Na 'n paar minute se gewag in die hitte (wat gevoel het soos 'n ewigheid) het ons besluit om in die rigting van die wooneenhede te stap, waar ons 'n skoonmaakster opgespoor het. Sy het ons na 'n stoor anderkant die huis geneem, waar 'n oom besig was om te werk. Hy het gehoor "dat hier mense gaan kom, maar verder weet hy niks". Terug by die kamer, het hy ges, dat as ons die air-con wil gebruik, moet ons net eers 'n "extension" soek. Buitekant, het hy ons gevra of ons sal wil braai en aangesien die naaste beskaafde dorp omtrent 160 km ver is, het ons ges ons sal graag braai. Die oom het ges hy sal net eers dan 'n braaier moet gaan soek. Hy weet nie waar nie, maar hy sal een kry, andersins kan ons van die braaier in die binnehof gebruikmaak. Die kamer en ablusie is 'n hele paar meter weg van mekaar en nie "en-suite" soos op die internet beskryf word nie. Tussen die kamer en die ablusie is 'n skuifhek wat toegehou moet word. Voor die kamer staan 'n haan en kraai en oorkant die kamer is volhokke met kwetterende vols (soos Love Birds). Die sementtafel en -banke (soos 'n bench) is versier met hoendermis, waar ons ons etes sou nuttig het. Nadat ons 'n verlengingskoord by die yskas ontdek het om die air-con aan te sit, het die gedoente 'n helse geraas aan die buitekant gemaak, maar binne-in die kamer was daar nie 'n liggie of die beweging van 'n luggie van 'n dag-oud nie. Die waaier op die tafel, het ook geen verskil aan die hitte gemaak nie. Ons het nie daar oornag nie en het so 4km buite Kuruman by Chapman Safari's oornag - die twee aande wat ons by Springbokpan sou oornag. Wat 'n belonende ligpunt op die teleurstellende ondervinding op Moedverloor-se-vlakte by Springbokpan. Pragtige wildsplaas met pragtige mense! Dit sal gaaf wees indien ons geld aan ons terugbetaal kan word, aangesien ons nie by Springbokpan wou oornag nie. Die goue-ster wat toegeken is, is vir die netheid van die kamer."

• "A little bit of heaven"

  "What a wonderfully warm reception after a very long two days in the car. Clean ablutions, and a really exquisite environment made us wish that we had booked for more than just an over night stop. Our hosts were so accommodating and helped us out when we were in a spot. They took the time to find and show our children the desert rain frog, enriching what would have been a simple overnight stay for us. Thank you! We would definitely recommend this."
