    A good stay, right next to Addo Elephant Park.

    This is the perfect place to stay if you want to visit Addo Elephant Park. The guest house provides all you need for a short or much longer stay. A Spar is literally just down the road for all your shopping needs.

    Close to the Addo Park Gate the perfect hide away. Quiet and spacious cottage. Vicky made us dinner with a fingerlicking good Malva Pudding. Perfect for visiting Addo and the Sandsys River. Plan a day longer to explore the river. Many activities are offered. We will do it next time.

    The area itself is a bit lonely. But you still have options of two restaurants within 10 minutes drive. One small pain point is too less options for hanging the towels. We see that in many apartments, though.

    Vicky is a great host. Shared all relevant information on time and provided guidance when needed. Nothing to complain about. Location to visit addo ist just great. 10 minutes drive to the Southgate.

    What's not to like!

    Exceptional and that's an understatement so where do I start! The welcoming was simply spectacular. The accomodation we stayed in is just around the corner from Addo Elephant National Park (in fact it shares a fence with the park itself but no climbing over please lol), the Sundays River and indemnities. It's tastefully decorated with beautiful furniture and ethnic art and it has all the comfort and facilites one can dream of including solar panels so no load shedding annoying experience. Oh and did I mention the fantastic garden! And last but not least, Vicky the host is a truly remarkable lady. She gave us all the info we needed to know about the place and things to do during our stay. Her friendliness, dedication and communication skills are simply amazing, she is the epitome of hospitality and it was a privilege to meet her. Thank you so much Vicky! 😍😊💓🤩 Jean-Francois

    While the accommodation was great it is situated at the foot of a mountain and falls into the shadows and is frightfully cold. There were extra blankets but a heater to warm the air would have been great.

    The location to Addo game reserve was a mere 7-minute drive, ideal. Vicky was very friendly and welcoming and helpful with local knowledge of where to eat, shop, and local directions.

    Can’t find any fault with this place. if I am visit Addo again I would come back every time!

    The cottage is spotlessly clean, there is a lovely view from a first floor outdoor wooden deck which you can sit and look out onto Addo. The beds are super comfortable. a separate bedroom with 2 single beds which our daughter and her friends like ( privacy for them instead of being in the same room as us). Nice bathroom which is very clean. in addition, having a washing machine was very useful after 10 days of traveling! the location was ideal for visit to South Gate of Addo elephant park ( purpose of our visit). shops and decent restaurants (2) also nearby. we have helpful tip to visit the private beach behind the KwikSpar which was a lovely walk.
