We were looking for a quiet break in the country. It could not have been better. The setting at the foot of the Swartberg mountains is breathtaking. As there is a constant stream of water from the nearby mountains, the dams are full. There is abundant game on the property some of which can be observed from the Lodge. The rooms are luxurious and very comfortable. The atmosphere is quiet and relaxing, the perfect place to chill and unwind. The meals were most appetising and enjoyable.

I did not experience anything that needed extra attention.

We enjoyed every minute of our stay! The staff were friendly and made us feel right at home. They went out of their way to cater to our dietary requirements- all the food at breakfast and dinner was delicious! The game drive was lovely and thanks to the keen eye of our guide we saw many beautiful animals. The beds were comfortable, the showers were hot - perfect after a day of exploring. The lodge is close to the Cango Caves and the Swartberg Pass so ideally situated for sightseeing in the area.

The room was large and comfortable, and the location was amazing — we woke up to zebra, antelope and giraffes right by the lake.
