Looking for a lodge?

Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.

    Despite the awful weather, Sam and his staff endeavoured to keep the lodge completely spotless. Everyone was so friendly and it was very close to all the local restaurants. Every morning, Sam checked to see whether we had a good night’s sleep and went out of his way to ensure we enjoyed our stay.

    I had numerous challenges which affected the Lodge-but Cami was kind, efficient & professional in assisting and resolving issues. She went above & beyond to facilitate the stay and renewed my faith in people. She was accessible and responded timeously. The grounds were lovely and safe; the room was clean, equipped and comfortable with an intimate secluded feel. Location was ideal for us and I was very pleased we found a great place in the area.

    It is my third time, and it has quietened a lot since my first stay many years ago with the removal of the downstairs bar. Right now it is a cozy and comfortable lodge with full of character.
