The location and thé view

Stayed in October 2023

It was quite far from Augrabies. We did not realised when we did the booking. Had travel on dirt road for more than an hour to get there from Augrabies. There was not enough warm water for 2 of us to shower. There were no glasses in the room.

Beautiful setting. The view from the room was stunning. We had dinner there and it was absolutely outstanding. We could not do the breakfast as we need to leave early. The owner packed us some delicious sandwiches for the road.

Verblyf was uitstekend. Dag by rivier was stunning. Ontbyt en aandete was onverbeterlik. Sal ons defintief weer sien. Baie dankie Lia

The gravel road is quite long so getting in and out is time consuming.

Picturesque, quiet, friendly host and beautiful views. My daughter was enthralled with the two kittens. The host went to a lot of trouble to cater for the vegans in the group.

Excellent breakfast and dinner. Spectacular mountain view from our room - never had a room view quite like it. Felt at home with our hosts.

Breakfast was great and dinner absolutely delicious. Owners and staff exceptionally friendly. Remote location and an excellent break.

Stayed in July 2022

I missed a bench to put my suitcase on. Missed a lounger in the room -- was raining for two days and veranda wet. But even that was good.

Most definitely the view from the room. Hot shower; river lookout point; long walks; quietness... Hospitable hosts who catered to our extra needs.

Stayed in June 2022

Rooms should be thoroughly cleaned and remove webs

Breakfast and supper Climbing rocks and taking a walk around the lodge

Stayed in May 2022

Not a dislike, but would love it if bedroom and bathroom had more clear open surfaces to put down all our "stuff". Admittedly we do travel with quite a bit of clutter!

Our hostess Lea was fantastic and we enjoyed 2 delicious dinners and 2 delicious breakfasts prepared by her. The views are incredible and the morning sunrise and evening sunset light on the landscape was out of this world! If we are ever back in this part of the world again, we will definitely stay here again!

Stayed in May 2021

No Airconditioning in the room. No hot water neither in the evening or the morning. We did not lodge a complaint as we left after staying one of the two nights we booked.

Our host was very accommodating. This is not a real lodge, there is one large room and a patio connected to the main house that is positioned as the lodge area where guests take meals and can have a drink at the bar

It's about 30km of traveling on dirt road to get to the lodge. It's very hot there. The temperature was 40 degrees Celsius and the fan did no justice to the room. An aircon would work better. The room was not cleaned properly. It was dirty under the bed when we checked for anything that could be out there. We relocated and slept in the car after being bitten by a baby scorpion that fell from the thatch roof onto the bed. As we were trying to get rid of the scorpion from the bed, we found a big spider in between the sheets. Perhaps an ideal place for the lover of outdoors! When I walked into the bathroom to use the toilet I found something like a frog or lizard in the bucket. I frantically closed the lid and flushed the toilet. Above the cistern were two beautiful yet creepy well-fed looking lizards. The shower has two sets of taps for his and hers but some of them were not working well. There was no cold water coming out of the taps.

The views are out of this world. The dinner was good. The steak was juicy and the portions were big. Meat lovers would have definitely felt at home.
