Absolutely a must do experience on your wish list for any outdoor animal lover! The minute you enter the gate, you feel the peace surrounding you and then the amazing animals like giraffes, bucks, warthogs etc., greet you as you travel to reception. The reception staff, especially CJ, were amazing and friendly from the time we booked until we went home. Our first glamping experience and what a surprise to find our accommodation with everything you need, in a very well-equipped tent. The air conditioner was such a blessing as it gets very humid during the day and coming back from a game drive, you really appreciate the cool rooms. The only two negative things we think need attention were the braai stand at the tent - why is it built so high, and why such small fridges? The nearest town is 50 km away and when you arrive and want to unpack you realise the fridge is a bar fridge (1 inside and 1 outside) which does not cool properly.

Nice place but a few problems. Quiet place for a weekend getaway, but units are not suitable for two couples. Little privacy and shared bathroom locking mechanism is a problem. The braai is so high that you have to be over 2m tall to be able to braai. Game drives at R540 pp are very expensive for what you get, compared to other game reserves. Manager was very friendly and helpful.

Lekker plek maar paar probleme. Rustige plek vir naweek wegbreek, maar eenhede is nie geskik vir twee paartjies nie. Min privaatheid en gedeelde badkamer se sluitmeganisme is 'n probleem. Die braai is so hoog dat jy meer as 2 m lank moet wees om te kan braai. Game drives teen R 540 pp is baie duur vir wat jy kry, in vergelyking met ander wildreservate. Bestuurder was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Good day Johannes, thank you for your feedback. While our glamping tents accommodate up to five people, they are designed with families in mind. For added privacy, we recommend booking two tents. Thank you for your feedback regarding the bathroom, braai and game drive. We’re also glad to hear that our team was friendly and helpful. We hope to welcome you back soon for another glamping adventure.

Perfect place for a couple. Very nice stay. The only complaint is that the hot tub was dirty and the water in it smelled, so we couldn't use it.

Perfekte plekkie vir 'n paartjie. Baie lekker gebly. Die enigste klagte is dat die "hot tub" vuil was en die water daar binne het gestink, so ons kon dit nie benut nie.

We want all our guests to fully enjoy their stay, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We hope to welcome you back soon for another wonderful stay!

Indeed a boutique camping experience. Such a relaxing and luxurious stay. The hot tub was a big treat. First a cool down pool and then a warm soak at night. Everything in the tent was very efficient and well maintained.

Relaxing and comfortable African bush holiday. It was a great holiday. A great way to affordably and comfortably get up close with nature and the African bush. Lorraine was a lovely host.
