Schöne Unterkunft mit freundlichen Leuten. Waren leider nur für eine Übernachtung dort, haben uns aber sehr wohl gefühlt. Guter Ausgangspunkt zum Addo Elephant Park.

Fijn hotel aan de rand van het Addo nat park. Vroeg in de ochtend erg aardig ontvangen. Mochten de bagage alvast op de kamer zetten. Vervolgens enorm goede informatie gekregen over het park en de super leuke game drive via Scotchia….

Deze lodge is ideaal gelegen voor het verkennen van het Addo Elephant Park, op een paar minuten van de zuidelijke ingang. De kamers zijn super proper en gezellig ingericht. De buitendouche is heerlijk! Het ontbijt is niet enorm uitgebreid maar zeker voldoende. En het personeel was heel vriendelijk en enorm behulpzaam.

Magnifique lodge que j’ai découvert lors de ma visite à Addo. Chambre spacieuse : en réalité, c’est une suite avec salon, douche extérieure agréable l’été ou réconfortante baignoire en hiver. Bon chauffage et couverture chauffante, le top du confort. Accueil vraiment très agréable. Excellent petit-déjeuner. Je recommande vivement ce lodge qui a été un véritable coup de cœur lors de mon séjour en Afrique du Sud.

Friendly, helpfull staff, ready to give you the home away from home feeling. Meals, delicious typical South-African menu’s. Comfortable big rooms, incl bath and an outside shower. Could hear the neighbours quite clearly though. Courtyard with waterfall pool/pond invites to take it easy and just relax. 5min away from the southgate of Addo Elephant Park, staff ralsi eady to advise what the best options are for your safari. Overall a lovely stay, and would certainly return.

The best experience we had in a very long time. We enjoyed every moment of staying at the lodge. The food, room, and whole setup were perfect. We even got a farewell present! Johan and Riëtte Morkel

It is a pity we only booked one night, tge guesthouse is beautiful and the staff is very friendly. The gardens are so well kept and you can have dinner in the evenings. We will definitely stay longer on our next trip

Absolutely loved our stay. We had 3 nights (spent one day self-driving in Addo Elephant Park and one day on a safari at a nearby private game reserve). Lovely place with really lovely and friendly staff and good food. Excellent location near the entrance to Addo Elephant Park. Highly recommend staying here!
