Located in Waterval Onder, a few steps from Krugerhof House Museum, Wayside Lodge provides accommodation with a restaurant, free private parking, an outdoor swimming pool and a bar. 5 km from Elands River Falls Viewpoint, the inn offers a garden and a terrace. The accommodation features a shared lounge for guests.

Really enjoyed our 4 night stay at Wayside Lodge, Pierre was the perfect host, nothing was too much trouble - from finding the perfect room for my 85 year old mother, to organising hiking and ziplining, to cooking delicious meals for us every evening. The beds are very comfortable and showers nice and hot, gardens are beautiful and the lovely big pool is a bonus. We found a lot to do in the area and could have stayed longer. I can highly recommend spending a few days at Wayside Lodge and enjoying the surrounding area.

Set in Machadodorp, The Grey's Inn has barbecue facilities and garden. Boasting a shared lounge, this property also provides guests with a terrace. The property is 600 metres from Dutch Reformed Church Machadodorp.

The host Ged is incredibly welcoming and a mine of information about the history of Africa. There is so much character to his restaurant /bar. I totally recommend as a stop of on your African adventures.

    This was our stopover between Graskop and Johannesburg and we did not really explored the area only stayed overnight. The room was a little bit outdated but overall this place has its own charm so it really did not bother us at all. The service provided by Sue and Belinda was really exceptional and the dinner was really wonderful, we felt spoiled!

    The hospitality from the host was amazing. We felt right at home from the beginning. The rooms were cozy and clean. The homecooked meals (breakfast and dinner) were very nice.

    It was absolutely incredible. Rustic but clean and well thought out decor accommodation set right next to a lovely little stream that the kids can play in. Nice short hike to a waterfall which makes it easy with small kids. Natural pool was lovely. Owners were very thoughtful and friendly. We will be back again. Oh yes don't forget the friendly dogs and cats who our kids loved.

    We had a restfull one night stay with stunning sunrise and delicious homemade lasagne for dinner. Beautiful surroundings with mesmerising view from balcony. Our room was situated in the peacful end of the house with comfy bed, bathroom with bathtub dirrect access to balcony/terrace overlooking the mountains. Garden is full of fruit trees and very fragrant and colourful flowers. Owners are wonderful and very welcoming people with two absolutely beautiful rhodesian ridgeback dogs who are gentle and friendly.

    Such a beautiful B&B with so much history...The perfect half way stop between Johannesburg and the Kruger National Park. A warm welcome from Sue and Belinda on arrival with all the comforts in your room. Wifi, mini bar, TV, aircon, electric blankets etc. After a short rest and shower, we went for dinner, great meal and hospitality! A must stay, only a few minutes from the N4.

    The best place that i have ever been. Very big and nice house, well decorated, very comfortable, lovely terrace and pool, the views... The room is very big and the bathroom too. The dinner was delicious. And they did for me a very big bag with meal for breakfast and lunch because I had to leave very early. The stuff is very friendly and the owner is very lovely host. And all of this in a very good price. Thank you very much.
