Nice people, a nice place away from it all.
Very nice stay by the river. That the river was running was a bonus. Excellent for bird watching - would have liked to stay longer, will do again one day.

Not for me.
Not what the accommodation booking and pictures pretend to be. "Lodge" in the name is misleading, which is actually a hunting lodge. Not what you expect when you book travel accommodation on Lekkerslaap. There was an empty soda bottle on the bed, which does not indicate proper cleaning. . Kettle in room - no plug in kitchen. Sickly old cats who keep staring at you for food; so are the dogs that are right there. Place needs a braai tong and/or crab stick.

With motorbike buddies to Nieu-Bethesda and on the way back at Bhejane overnight.
Website images and reality do not match. 3 persons in tent by river and 1 in cottage next to it. Tent very basic and almost like back then in the army. Cottage not even a glass or coffee facilities. Also no chair to sit inside or on small porch. Superficial lodge-type detail such as horns on the outer wall, but in our case a misrepresentation. Also no wildlife to see or offer to see. Apart from delicious meat and salad provided by owners a disappointing experience.

Tussen niks en nêrens, so 'n lekker still oornag na die jaar se gejaag.

Between nothing and nowhere, such a nice still overnight after the year's rush.
Beautiful and quiet setting, the accommodation was as advertised. The starry night and mountains were breathtaking. No cell phone reception makes it the ideal place to get away from technology and the hustle and bustle of life. It was a lovely refreshing overnight stay after a long drive from JHB on the way to Cape Town.

The summary on Lekeslaap is misleading and the accommodation is only suitable for those who prefer rustic, prefer camping.
More suitable for hunters than families.

I did not realise that Bhejane is a hunting game farm.
Bhejane Game Reserve 's response
Good day, Sonja due to the draught and visit in January with the degrees over 40, it is understandable that you did not see many animals in the veld. We only hunt in winter time, so I do not think that has anything to do with the fact that you did not see any animals.
Thank you for your support

Perfekte plek om te herlaai en die natuurskoon te geniet.

Perfect place to recharge and enjoy the scenery.
It's a beautiful area and the owners are lovely people. We stayed in the lodge. It's basically 2 separate rooms (2 single beds with a bathroom and a common outdoor kitchen and braai area). It was just us and the view is fantastic. I do think it would be awkward if there were strange people staying in the next room. I would love to stay again for more than just one night!

Beste Chrisna,
Dankie vir jou positiewe terugvoering. Ons eenhede word net aan 'n familie uitverhuur, dus is daar geen bure nie. Ons verwelkom julle graag terug!
Geniet die res van julle vakansie!

Forest getaway without technology. Recharge those batteries!
We had a wonderful recharge at Bhejane and 4 nights felt like two weeks of rest. This is what one does here: completely switch off from the outside world. Phillip and Adriana are an excellent team and made us feel very welcome. Feel free to try their home-baked, fresh, warm farm bread! We also recommend the game drive. I am not sure that it is clear on the web how many people can be accommodated per chalet. 4 or 5 guests can be accommodated in a Chalet with ease as each has two rooms. I suggest this is well communicated with Phillip and Adriana.

Very disappointed.
The place was dirty and smelled unpleasant. The owner forgot we were coming. The toilet did not work and the water in the shower did not drain. We had to wash all kitchen equipment before we could use it. It was definitely not value for money. We were very disappointed.

Friendly reception and the rooms were beautiful. There was no hot water and the place was a bit dusty and difficult to access by car. Otherwise it was gorgeous there and I will recommend it for sure.

Fantastic people, so peaceful, beautiful Karoo farm!
The woman who runs/owns the place is really a fantastic person. There was a misunderstanding with our booking and she upgraded us from a camping spot to a chalet with a smile without asking any questions. We really appreciated it and we had a great stay. Fantastic view, very quiet and relaxing, good facilities in the chalet. Will definitely recommend. Thanks for your trouble and hospitality, God bless in 2017!

What a pleasure to stay at Bhejane.
Peacefully nestled in the "bushveld" of the Karoo. Picture perfect. I will recommend it to anyone who likes getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city noise, to pay this place a visit. We saw animals and birds from the patio and the mountains in front of our tent amazed us, especially when we woke up. The "biltong steaks" are a must and can be bought from the owner. Friendly, hospitable owners who likes a chat, a nice braai and picture perfect scenery. What more could you want?

More of a terminus stay than a stopover.
Beautiful surroundings and blissful silence. Unfortunately no wildlife seen because the woods are very thick and the water drinking place is far from the lodge. The lodge is more geared towards men who would only grill meat and the kitchen facilities can therefore be improved. The road signs are not clear. It is 32 km on a poor cement road from Willowmore to Steytlerville and then 10 km on a good wide dirt road (correctly indicated on the directions so far), but then you have to turn off on a small dirt road (good condition for ' n sedan) with no directions for a further 10 km.

Friendly reception and clean and tidy place!
For tent camping in the woods, the setup is really, really nice. The owner received us kindly and personally took us to the accommodation. Everything was clean and tidy. It is very quiet and safe. Kids loved the view and silence. Bonus is no cell phone reception. The only negative aspect is the road from Willowmore. The road is bad and I wouldn't recommend an ordinary car. Rather a larger SUV or van.
