Restful - a great surprise.

The venue was a great surprise after 12 hours on the road. The lodge has a wonderful view over a river flowing through the bush and is packed with all sorts of wild animals. We all enjoyed unwinding at the pool watching the fairly tame giraffe a few meters away.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at the lodge. From booking all the way through to check-out. The rooms were perfect and had everything we needed. We made use of the pop-up restaurant for dinner and had a super tasty meal with great service! We also ordered breakfast packs and these were ready on time and delicious.

Lovely accommodation surrounded by African bush.

The accommodation in the BnB chalet was beautiful, large and airy with a lovely view over the hills. Our hosts were helpful and attentive, but overall we were very disappointed as we expected to find a lovely lodge with a swimming pool, restaurant, and lounge with a view of the river as advertised. We found out when we got there that it had burnt down last year.

Besonders teleurstellend.

Die toegangs pad is gedaan. Die geriewe is iewers tussen vuil en vieslik. Die kombuis toerusting is onvoldoende. Instandhouding word nie behoorlik gedoen nie. Ek het 'n lys van 17 items wat is indien die eienaar my wil kontak. Dit is onaanvaarbaar teen die prys wat gevra word. Die restaurant is heel goed, maar om net een keuse van wyn op die lys beskikbaar te hê, is nie in lyn met die verwagting wat deur advertensie geskep word nie.

Particularly disappointing.

The access road is done. The facilities are somewhere between dirty and filthy. The kitchen equipment is inadequate. Maintenance is not done properly. I have a list of 17 items that are if the owner wants to contact me. This is unacceptable at the price being asked. The restaurant is very good, but having only one choice of wine available on the list is not in line with the expectation created by advertisement.

Heerlik rustig en beeldskoon. Ons hoef oor niks te bekommer, aandete en ontbyt is gereël, vuurmaak hout vir die kaggel lê en wag.

Ons stop gereeld by Boschrand. Ons bring ons hondjie saam en geniet 'n skemer kelkie op die stoep terwyl die son sak. Aandete by hul restaurant (of dan' room service as mens lui is) is altyd heerlik en hulle ontbyte ook. Diens is vriendelik en die natuur is beeldskoon.

Heerlike wegbreek.

Ons het die naweek terdeë geniet. Die eenheid waarin ons gebly het, was ruim en netjies en die kaggel het ons regdeur die naweek warm gehou. Die beddegoed was luuks en die elektriese komberse 'n bederf. Die diens was puik en flink. Volgende keer gaan ons in die somer om die houtdek en braai ten volle te geniet.

Awesome views from rooms.

Driving around the game farm was great, girrafes, many buck, wildebeest, and warthogs. The view from the room was awesome, just an open bush. Seeing so many stars at night was a delight. Our dog was welcome with minimal restrictions (on a leash whenever outside). The food was good considering the temporary arrangement for the kitchen. Previously the food was top-class and excellent. Paying a little extra was well worth it.

10 uit 10.

Ons het Boschrand gebruik as 'n oorslaapplek, maar gaan defnitief terug vir 'n langer kuier. Die lodge se diens was uitstekend, die restaurant is ook uit die boonste rakke (die 'sticky pork ribs' is van die beste), en ons het te lekker op die houtdek gekuier met sy ongelooflike uitsig oor die rivier. Die kamers is baie ruim met aircon vir die somer en 'n vuurherd vir die winter, groot gemaklike beddens, groot badkamer met 'n stort en 'n bad, en elkeen met sy eie houtdek en buitemeubels. Hoogs aan te bevele!

We used Boschrand as a stopover, but will definitely go back for a longer visit. The lodge's service was excellent, the restaurant is also top notch (the 'sticky pork ribs' are some of the best), and we enjoyed hanging out on the wooden deck with its incredible view of the river. The rooms are very spacious with aircon for the summer and a fireplace for the winter, large comfortable beds, large bathroom with a shower and a bath, and each with its own wooden deck and outdoor furniture. Highly recommended!

Netjies, rustig en waarde vir geld.

Ons slaap gereeld by Boschrand en ons is altyd baie tevrede. Pragtige uitsig vanuit die ruim, netjiese wooneenhede. Dis rustig en veilig, die ontbyt is heerlik en die kliëntediens is puik! Ons sal in die toekoms weer daar oorbly.

Boschrand is ideaal vir 'n oornag verblyf op pad huis toe.

Ons het baie lekker geswem, wild gaan kyk, geëet, gekuier en geslaap. Die 6-slaap eenheid is perfek en spasieus toegerus en ons het baie gemaklik gebly. 'n Paar klein dingetjies van die eiendom kort bietjie werk, maar die eienaars is darem stadig maar seker besig om aandag te skenk daaraan.

Boschrand is ideal for an overnight stay on the way home.

We had a lot of fun swimming, watching wildlife, eating, hanging out and sleeping. The 6-bed unit is perfectly and spaciously equipped and we stayed very comfortably. A few small things about the property need some work, but at least the owners are slowly but surely paying attention to them.

Baie lekker gebly.

Boschrand het 'n traumatiese tyd agter die rug met hul hooflodge wat 'n week gelede afgebrand het. Hul verblyfeenhede is gelukkig nie geaffekteer nie en was in 'n puik toestand. Hulle gasvryheid was eersteklas en ten spyte daarvan dat hul baie toerusting verloor het in die brand, steeds vir ons 'n lekker aandete voorberei en ook 'n heerlike ontbytpakkie gepak het. Ons sal hulle vir seker weer ondersteun wanneer ons in daardie area oornag. Kan hulle aanbeveel met vrymoedigheid!

Very nice stay.

Boschrand has a traumatic time behind them with their main lodge burning down a week ago. Their accommodation units were fortunately not affected and were in excellent condition. Their hospitality was first class and despite losing a lot of equipment in the fire, they still prepared us a nice dinner and also packed a delicious breakfast pack. We will for sure support them again when we stay overnight in that area. Can recommend them with confidence!

Totale ontspanning in die natuur na 'n uitputtende dag se reis.

'n Rustige, ontspanne oord 'n klipgooi vanaf die N1, maar ver genoeg om die geraas van die verkeer uit te sny, met uitsig op 'n vallei van pragtige ongerepte natuur.

Baie aangenaam.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Die diens en kommunikasie was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. En die uitsig vanuit die kamer was ongelooflik mooi. Die kamers is groot, gerieflik en met toepaslike temas versier. Die enigste kwelpunt is die veiligheid van die toegangspad na die lodge, veral as reisigers laat aand daar moet aankom. Klein goedjies soos een of twee 'lightcovers' wat nie daar was nie het dalk aandag nodig, maar het nie weggeneem van die algehele ervaring nie. Ons sal ook dalk 'n ander stortkop verkies het.

Very pleasant.

We had a very nice stay. The service and communication was very friendly and helpful. And the view from the room was incredibly beautiful. The rooms are large, comfortable and decorated with appropriate themes. The only concern is the safety of the access road to the lodge, especially if travelers have to arrive late at night. Little things like one or two 'lightcovers' that weren't there might need attention, but didn't take away from the overall experience. We also might have preferred a different shower head.

Die kuier by Boschrand Lodge was baie rustig, veral om oor die spruitjie uit te kyk vir diere.

Ongelukkig het Boschrand Lodge se restaurant onlangs afgebrand. Hulle voorsien nou net vanaf 'n beperkte menu. Ons was enigste gaste en hulle het ons na selfsorg opgegradeer, wat baie aangenaam was en ons kon lekker vuurtjie maak vir braaivleis tydens beurtkrag.

Unfortunately, Boschrand Lodge's restaurant recently burned down. They now only provide from a limited menu. We were the only guests and they upgraded us to self-catering, which was very pleasant and we were able to make a nice fire for barbecue during load shedding.

Staff and management friendly and accommodating.

Facilities showed some neglect, the chalet was clean inside but the patio was not as well as the built-in braai, litter around the chalet and a geyser leak on top of the entrance. Towels are worn out. The manager is very friendly and helpful. The food was good value and tasty. We did cut our stay short by one night because we were not impressed overall. The setting and scenery are spectacular. Around one river bend lots of litter on the bank, mostly empty plastic bottles.

Verras met die prag, sowaar 'n versteekte diamant.

Die oomblik wat ons deur die ontvangs area gestap het tot op die dek was ons ontmoet met die mees mooiste uitsig. Volop met diere wat die plaas geniet. Die diens was uitstekend, en ek sal sterk hulle spa ladies aanbeveel! Die kos was oortreflik, ons gunsteling was die hoender vlerkies en die grilled chicken. Aamazing! Ons sien uit na ons volgende besoek! Reeds aan 3 ander gesinne aanbeveel. Die plek is mooier as die fotos.

Already recommended to 3 other families. The place is more beautiful than the photos.

Great escape and stop-over en route from Cape Town to KZN.

What a fabulous find. Boschrand Lodge is so conveniently situated close to the N1. It is the perfect stop-over (feels like part of the holiday) and provided a relaxing haven after the bustle of the N1 traffic. The BnB cottage deck gave us private space to enjoy a sundowner whilst enjoying the view. The room and bathroom are spacious with everything we needed. The meals at the restaurant were excellent. Warm and friendly staff. All around a fantastic experience. Highly recommended.

Fantastiese, verrassende ervaring waar jy dit nie sou verwag nie.

Ons ry al donkiejare deur Winburg - so vinnig moontlik. Toe stuit ons op Boschrand Lodge en was stomgeslaan van verbasing en gelag van verrukking. Wat 'n geweldige ervaring. So ontsettend mooi, die natuur, die diere, die uitsig, die huisies, die dienslewering ens. Ons het 'n heerlike ervaring met die mense wat daar werk gehad. Lanklaas (het ons al ooit) so 'n lekker stukkie vleis in die restourant geëet? Ons sal nie sommer weer verby Winburg ry nie.

What a tremendous experience. So stunningly beautiful, the nature, the animals, the view, the houses, the service delivery etc. We had a wonderful experience with the people who worked there. Haven't (have we ever) eaten such a nice piece of meat in a restaurant? We won't just drive past Winburg again.

A short stay, but thoroughly enjoyable.

We arrived late, so unfortunately did not have the opportunity to have a good look around. Our room was very big and as a result, it was quite cool in mid winter temperatures. We did make use of the AC to warm it up and there were electric blankets on the bed. Our balcony gave a lovely view the following morning, but probably needs a bit of maintenance which I am sure the owners are planning, as well as our bath which had a small leak, and a loose tap, both of which we reported as many visitors don't bother to give feedback to management. The dinner arrangements were relaxed and the food was absolutely great with a broad menu to choose from. Staff were very polite, attentive and responsive. We felt very safe there, and had undercover parking. The lodge is a few kms of the N1 which is good because the traffic noise is a non-issue. We expect to make use of the lodge again in future if our travels take us to the area.

Die WiFi se ligte pla in die nag. Ek stel voor dit word geskuif of bedek.

Convenient, reasonably priced, very good dinner.

The room was still being cleaned when we arrived at 3pm, there was a strong smell of woodsmoke, and the sewage pipes may need attending to; however, the room itself was spacious, the view more than compensated for our initial doubts, and the service we received from Bouer was exemplary.

Little gem just off the N1.

Great overnight accommodation, but worth it if you want to stay longer. Beautiful views from your chalet over the river and nature reserve. Lovely restaurant setting with a pool and Jacuzzi. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We had dinner at the restaurant and although the menu is very limited, the food was delicious.

Personeel was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Kamers is pragtig en ruim en die kos was heerlik.

Ons het ons besoek baie geniet. Was effe teleurgesteld omdat die Jacuzzi nie benut kon word nie, maar dit het nie afbreek gedoen aan ons besoek nie. Daar is baie wild om te sien en die uitsig uit die kamers en vanaf die lodge is pragtig. Ek sou voorstel dat 'n meer privaat skeiding tussen eenhede se stoepies aangebring word om sodoende meer privaatheid te bied. Die kamers is egter baie ruim en skoon. Ons kamer se elektriese komberse was ook buite werking, maar gelukkig was die aand darem nie te koel nie. Die kaggel in die kamer was lieflik!

We really enjoyed our visit. Was slightly disappointed because the Jacuzzi could not be used, but it did not detract from our visit. There is a lot of wildlife to see and the view from the rooms and from the lodge is beautiful. I would suggest that a more private separation between units' porches be installed to provide more privacy. However, the rooms are very spacious and clean. Our room's electric blankets were also out of order, but luckily the evening wasn't too cool. The fireplace in the room was lovely!

Die B&B-eenhede was baie gerieflik, skoon en ruim. Die eenhede het ook ’n pragtige uitsig oor die reservaat! Die restaurant se kos was baie lekker - die kombuis het baie moeite gedoen! Die personeel was vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons het uitgesien na die wildrit, maar kon dit ongelukkig nie benut nie weens swaar reën die vorige paar dae. Bietjie teleurstellend, maar verstaanbaar.

A bit disappointing, but understandable.

Excellent hospitality, a secret gem higly recommended.

We were so pleasantly surprised to find this gem of a Lodge a kilometer or two off the main route to Johannesburg. The staff were exceptionally welcoming and dinner was superb, chosen from a no-fuss menu, just what travelers need after a long drive. The huge bedroom overlooked a beautiful view of the two rivers running through the game reserve and was well-appointed with a very comfortable bed and good quality linen and pillows. All staff was exceptionally friendly and attentive to our needs. We will definitely return.

Fantasties.

Die webtuiste het die verblyf vir my gekry, toe ek nie my ander verblyf kon vind nie. Die dame by ontvangs was baie behulpsaam. Sy het my dadelik in 'n familliekamer gesit, sonder enige moeite. Daar was hout, charcoal, vuuraanstekers, ys en water vir ons gewees. Ek kan net baie dankie sê.

Fantastic.

The website found the accommodation for me, when I could not find my other accommodation. The lady at reception was very helpful. She immediately put me in a family room, without any effort. There had been wood, charcoal, fire lighters, ice and water for us. I can only say thank you very much.

The staff is very professional and friendly. The rooms are clean and spacious. The view from the balcony - stunning!

We had a late check-in, which was hassle-free. We appreciated that we could go directly to our units, since we had a 6-hours drive. The Lodge called us en route, to check if we wanted to order dinner and have it dropped in our rooms, before the dining room closed. So thoughtful! Breakfast was surprisingly basic though. I definitely expected a better spread. Perhaps consider a mini-buffet breakfast - add a selection of cereals, fruit salad, fresh baked pastries, honey, selection of yoghurt, cheese and biscuit board. We had looked forward to breakfast and it was disappointing, in comparison to the venue itself. The 2-km stretch of dirt road from the main road to the entrance should be mentioned, as this caught us by surprise. Perhaps this can be lightly surfaced. Not everyone wants to take their luxury vehicle off-road.

Ons het daar oornag op pad terug van vakansie in Mosselbaai.

Ons geniet dit om daar oor te slaap en is die geriewe baie goed. Ons verwelkom die rustigheid en stilte en kies daarom om op die lodge op 'n natuurreservaat oor te slaap. Albei keer was op 31 Desember en omdat ons rustige oujaar verkies slaap ons nie graag dan in 'n woonbuurt of vakansieoord oor nie. Ons braai dan ook graag op die dek terwyl ons die natuur en wilde diere geniet. Die vorige keer en nou weer het ons egter langs gaste geland wat vanaf 18:00 tot na 24:00 gerumoer het. Die musiek was hard, maar kon ons dit verduur, maar die luidrugtige geskree en uitbundigheid was totaal onvanpas in 'n natuurreservaat. Die geraas was ook nie beperk tot die chalet langs ons nie maar was die gaste tot in die vroeë oggendure op en af derby ons kamer venster met 'n geraas. Ander gaste aan die ander kant (ons was drie chalets in 'n ry) het met ons aankoms aangedui dat hulle gaan kla het by die bestuur. Niks is egter deur bestuur gedoen nie. Verder kon ons 14:00 reeds die chalet kry, maar by ons aankoms teen 17:30 was hulle steeds besig om dit op te ruim en skoon te maak. Daar was geen handdoeke en het die skoonmaker aangedui dat sy die volgende oggend handdoeke sou bring. Sy het nadat ons daarop aandring het die handdoeke later gering. Daar was geen waaier soos in 2018 nie en weens veiligheidsredes kon ons nie die vensters oopmaak nie - geen diefwering en geen sekuriteitswagte nie. (Ons kan dalk net ook noem dat in 2018 (ons het ook deur die webtuiste bespreek), toe ons daar kom was daar geen bespreking via ons nie en moes ons amper twee ure wag vir 'n chalet.) Ons sal beslis weer daar wil oornag, want dit is gerieflik op ons pad en geniet ons dit. Ons sou egter dringende terugvoer vanaf die bestuur self wou hê rakende ons klagtes hierbo.

We spent the night there on our way back from holiday in Mossel Bay.

We enjoy sleeping over there and the facilities are very good. We welcome the peace and quiet and therefore choose to spend the night at the lodge on a nature reserve. Both times were on December 31 and because we prefer a quiet new year we don't like to sleep over in a residential area or holiday resort. We also like to barbecue on the deck while enjoying nature and wild animals. However, last time and now again we landed next to guests who were rowdy from 6:00 PM until after 12:00 AM. The music was loud, but we could bear it, but the loud shouting and exuberance was totally inappropriate in a nature reserve. The noise was not limited to the chalet next to us either, but the guests were up and down our bedroom window with a noise until the early hours of the morning. Other guests on the other side (we were three chalets in a row) indicated upon our arrival that they were going to complain to the management. However, nothing was done by management. Furthermore, we could already find the chalet at 14:00, but when we arrived at 17:30 they were still tidying and cleaning it. There were no towels and the cleaner indicated that she would bring towels the next morning. After we insisted, she ringed the towels later. There was no fan like in 2018 and for security reasons we couldn't open the windows - no burglar bars and no security guards. (We might also mention that in 2018 (we also booked through the website), when we got there there was no booking through us and we had to wait almost two hours for a chalet.) We would definitely like to go there again overnight because it is convenient on our way and we enjoy it. However, we would like urgent feedback from the management itself regarding our complaints above.

Teleurgesteld in netheid.

Lodge het 'n pragtige ligging, maar was baie teleurgesteld in netheid. Handdoeke het bedompig geruik en lakens, kussingslope en van die duvets was of nie gewas nie of baie gevlek. Dis 'n basies van 'n lodge wat goed moet wees. Ook baie dooie goggas op die vloer wat dit laat lyk of dit glad nie uitgevee was nie.

Disappointed in cleanliness.

Lodge has a beautiful location but was very disappointed in cleanliness. Towels smelled musty and sheets, pillowcases and some of the duvets were either unwashed or heavily stained. It's a basic of a lodge that has to be good. Also lots of dead bugs on the floor which makes it look like it wasn't cleaned at all.

Ons het in 'n self-catering huis gebly. Dit was netjies, ruim en skoon. Ons het oggend en aand in die restaurant geëet en die kos was heerlik! Hulle het uitstekende voorsiening gemaak vir 'n vegan-persoon. Die wildrit was baie interessant, ons het baie by Bouwer geleer en dit was uiters waarde vir geld. Sal graag weer kom.

Fantastiese bosveldwegbreek.

Ons het elke oomblik by Boschrand Lodge geniet tydens ons 3 nag tydperk. Ons kamer was stylvol en gemaklik ingerig met daaglikse skoonmaakdienste. Die restaurant het heerlike kos bedien teen billike pryse (hul melkskommels was hemels). Ons kon vanuit ons kamer oor Whatsapp met die ontvangs kommunikeer en hul het al ons vereistes nagekom om ons verblyf gemaklik te maak. Daar was lekker baie diere gewees om te sien en ons kon diere kyk vanuit die swembad en die Jacuzzi. Ongelukkig kon my man nie op 'n game drive gaan nie, want ons was die enigste gaste wat belanggestel het. Daar was verskeie dames by ontvangs wat ons welkom laat voel het, behalwe die jongste dame. Sy het ons ongemaklik laat voel en sy was nie vriendelik nie, maar anders as dit, sal ons baie graag weer wil teruggaan in die toekoms.

Fantastic woodland break.

We enjoyed every moment at Boschrand Lodge during our 3 night stay. Our room was stylishly and comfortably furnished with daily cleaning services. The restaurant served delicious food at reasonable prices (their milkshakes were heavenly). We were able to communicate with the reception via Whatsapp from our room and they fulfilled all our requirements to make our stay comfortable. There were lots of animals to see and we could watch animals from the pool and the Jacuzzi. Unfortunately my husband could not go on a game drive as we were the only guests interested. There were several ladies at reception who made us feel welcome, except the youngest lady. She made us feel uncomfortable and she was not friendly, but other than that, we would love to go back again in the future.

Baie dankie vir die ongelooflike lekker bly. Die self-catering plekkies is regtig mooi. Die dekor pas so mooi by die ligging. Leerbanke, groot kaggel binne, lekker groot stoep buite met groot braaiplek. Hulle gee tot melk, water, ys, hout, brikette en aanstekers. Beddens is baie gemaklik. Lugversorging en warmkomberse maak dat mens vergeet van die koue. Baie mooi kroeg met billike pryse.

'n Pragtige plek, goeie waarde vir geld.

Ons was ontvang met die woorde "almal is al huis toe en hier is niemand meer nie, julle moes vooraf gereël het vir 'n game drive" (wat ons gedoen het). Ons was verstom, het nog nooit in ons lewe so onwelkom gevoel nie, het nie geweet wat nou nie, moes ons nou maar 'n ander plek gaan soek om oor te bly, of wat nou? Dit was 'n Sondag, ons het so tussen 4 en 5 uur opgedaag. Daar is vir ons gesê almal is bitter moeg van 'n groot troue wat daar was. Verstommende swak kliëntediens! Nadat ons kapsie gemaak het, het die eienaar se seun opgedaag en die verblyf en game drive was heerlik. Die lodge se kamers (wat apart sit van die lodge) is van die mooiste wat ons nog gesien het. Sal ons weer gaan: ja beslis.

A beautiful place, good value for money.

We were greeted with the words "everyone has gone home and there is no one here, you should have pre-arranged for a game drive" (which we did). We were stunned, never felt so unwelcome in our life, didn't know what to do now, should we just go find another place to stay, or what? It was a Sunday, we arrived between 4 and 5 o'clock. We were told that everyone is very tired from a big wedding that was there. Amazingly poor customer service! After we made the hood, the owner's son arrived and the accommodation and game drive were wonderful. The lodge's rooms (which sit separately from the lodge) are some of the most beautiful we have ever seen. Would we go again: yes definitely.

Goeie oornag verblyf teen redelike prys.

Ons het as 'n groot geselskap opgedaag en die ontvangs was vriendelik en flink. Ons huisies was netjies en toegerus met alles nodig vir selfsorg. Een probleem was egter die lekkende rioolpyp net onder die dek van die swembad. Dit was onmoontlik om daar te sit en die twee kinders dop te hou vanweë die vlieë en reuk. 4 van ons groep en twee kinders het die wildrit gedoen en 'n groot verskeidenheid wild gesien. Ons het aandete en ontbyt daar geniet en weereens was dit waarde vir geld.

Good overnight stay at a reasonable price.

We arrived as a large group and the reception was friendly and prompt. Our cottages were neat and equipped with everything needed for self-catering. However, one problem was the leaking sewer pipe just below the pool deck. It was impossible to sit there and watch the two children because of the flies and smell. 4 of our group and two children did the game drive and saw a great variety of wildlife. We enjoyed dinner and breakfast there and again it was value for money.

Uitstekende diens, hulle het spesiaal ete vir my gereël en na die kamer toe gestuur met my laat aankoms. Kamers is baie mooi en ruim en goed ingerig, uitsig oor die plaas vanaf die stoep is ongelooflik. Sal enige tyd aanbeveel.

Bring die familie, hou 'n partytjie.

Die plek lyk asof jy 'n moewiese party kan hou, groot decks, nice bar, Jacuzzi, swembad alles terwyl jy uitkyk op die wild doer ver onder. Ons een aand gebly in die B&B unit. Baie netjies. Die outjie wat ons aandete gemaak het braai 'n skaaptjoppie dat hy so sag is soos 'n fillet. Hoop ons sien julle weer.

Gemaklike oornag stopplek.

Boschrand was die perfekte halfpad stop van Sedgefield na Hazyview. Ons het 2 aande bespreek in B&B chalet en ons het gesukkel met warm water. Na die eerste dag het ons na een van die selfsorgeenhede geskuif wat pragtig was. Kos was baie goed in die restaurant. Een nadeel is dat dit baie naby aan die N1 is en die voertuie nogal raserig is. Dit is egter ‘n heerlike oornag stop.

Comfortable overnight stopover.

Boschrand was the perfect halfway stop from Sedgefield to Hazyview. We booked 2 nights in the B&B chalet and we struggled a bit with the hot water. After the first day we moved to one of the self-catering units which was beautiful. The food at the restaurant was very good. One disadvantage is that it is very close to the N1 and the vehicles are quite noisy. However, it is a lovely overnight stop.

Baie veilige juweel van 'n oornagplek op ons reis na die Kruger Wildtuin. Die kamers is modern, skoon en netjies. Ons is vriendelik en professioneel ontvang deur Jacques, hy is 'n ware aanwins vir Boschrand Lodge. Kan dit opreg aanbeveel, dis beslis waarde vir geld. Die uitsig oor die reservaat vanaf jou kamer en restaurant is 'n bonus - vandaar kan 'n verskeidenheid diere besigtig word. Die aandete en ontbyt was ook van goeie gehalte. Nogmaals baie dankie.

Een hele leuke plek om te genieten van de natuur, de mensen daar en vooral ook de grote varieteit aan prachtige dieren. Vanaf je veranda kijken naar de rivier beneden, de dieren aan de bosrand, het wijdse uitzicht over de vlaktes. En een gamedrive die absoluut is aan te raden. En 's avonds een heerlijk diner.

Wonderlike hawe op die langpad!

Ons het by Boschrand Lodge gebly as 'n oornagstop tussen Pretoria en Kaapstad. Dit was 'n wonderlike hawe na 'n lang pad. Die kinders het dadelik op die klimrame en trampolien gespeel om van oortollige energie ontslae te raak. Ons het bespreek vir aandete by die restaurant en dit was voorwaar heerlik en billik. Hulle het met 'n glimlag ons kinders akkomodeer. Vanaf die restaurantdek kon ons kameelperde, verskeie boksoorte en tarentale sien onder by die rivier. Daar is 'n pragtige uitsig van die dek af. Die volgende oggend het ons daar ontbyt geëet (R85 per persoon) en weereens het hulle die kinders spesiaal akkomodeer. Baie dankie vir jul goeie diens, ons was uitgerus en weer reg vir verder ry. Die Lodge is baie naby aan die N1, dit maak dit baie gerieflik, al kan aan die ander kant die karre hoor as jy aan die agterkant van jou huisie staan.

Wonderful accommodation on the road!

We stayed at Boschrand Lodge as an overnight stop between Pretoria and Cape Town. It was a wonderful stay after the long road. The children immediately played on the jungle gym and trampoline to get rid of excess energy. We booked dinner at the restaurant and it was truly delicious and reasonable. They have accommodated our children with a smile. From the restaurant deck we could see giraffes, various species of antelope and guineafowls by the river. There is a beautiful view from the deck. The next morning we ate breakfast there (R85 per person) and once again they accommodated the children specially. Thank you for your good service, we were rested and ready to drive further. The Lodge is very close to the N1, which makes it very convenient, although the cars can be heard on the other side of the house.

Vriendelike ontvangs, pragtige kamers en heerlike nagrus.

Boschrand is 'n pragtige lodge 'n hane tree van die N1 net buite Winburg. Ons is baie vriendelik ontvang deur Angelique. Die paadjie van die parkering na die ontvangs is dalk bietjie donker in die nag, maar die aanwysings is goed. Ons het in die B&B kamers gebly (Kudu) - die kamers is baie ruim, en die kaggel skep 'n heerlike atmosfeer. Die kamers is ook baie goed ingerig en het alles wat jy sou nodig hê. Genoegsame kragpunte. Beide etes (aandete en ontbyt) was baie goed voorberei en baie smaaklik. Ons sal defintief Boschrand aan enige persoon aanbeveel!

Boschrand is a beautiful lodge a stone's throw from the N1 just outside Winburg. We were very kindly received by Angelique. The path from the parking to the reception may be a little dark at night, but the directions are good. We stayed in the B&B rooms (Kudu) - the rooms are very spacious, and the fireplace creates a lovely atmosphere. The rooms are also very well appointed and have everything you would need. Sufficient power points. Both meals (dinner and breakfast) were very well prepared and very tasty. We would definitely recommend Boschrand to anyone!

The sorting out of the room and the lodge was very nice. Food was very good. Bed was not good. Hole in the middle. Slept poorly. Shower had cracks in it so water sprayed everywhere.

Een van die bestes!

Hierdie lodge was regtig een van die bestes waar ons nog oorgeslaap het, hulle is so professioneel, glad nie buitensporig duur nie. Ongelooflik vriendelik en het ons met die lekkerste aandete en ontbyt voorsien. Ons het op 'n "game drive" gegaan en dit was ongelooflik gewees. Ek kan Boschrand Lodge hoog aanbeveel! Die geriewe is baie skoon en uiters puik! Daar is 'n klein pretpark vir die kinders. Niemand kan verkeerd gaan om by Bouwer en sy span in te klok nie!

One of the best!

This lodge is really one of the best ones I've stayed at. They are so professional, and not too expensive. So friendly and we were spoiled with the best dinner and breakfast. We went on a game drive an dit was unbelievable. I can highly recommend Boschrand Lodge! The facilities are very clean and excellent! There is a small play park for kids. Nobody can go wrong by choosing Bouwer and his team!

Waarde vir geld, vriendelike, hulpvaardige personeel en om aandete daar te kon nuttig, was 'n groot pluspunt.

Die eenhede was bo alle verwagtinge. Ons het nie handdoeke gehad nie, maar dit was onmiddellik voorsien toe ons daarvoor vra. Die diens was puik en die etes was uit die boonste rakke. Was lekker om in die winteraande 'n elektriese kombers en 'n kaggel in die kamer te kon hê.

Value for money, friendly and helpful staff and being able to enjoy dinner there was a bonus.

The units were more than we expected. We didn't have towels, but it was immediately supplied when we asked. The service was excellent and the meals were top notch. It was nice to have an electric blanket and a fireplace in the room on a cold winter's night.

Perfekte plek vir oornag en ontspan.

Wat 'n aangename verrassing! Die vriendelike diens wat ons ontvang het vanaf Bouwer en die res van die personeel het ons baie welkom laat voel. Besonderse uitsigte en pragtige kamers. Uitstekende waarde vir geld, 'n versteekte juweel in die Vrystaat.

Baie lekker en rustige plek om te ontspan, lekker geswem en die kos was van die beste!

Baie goed ontvang, als was in order met papierwerk, kamer was mooi netjies en skoon en klaar vir ons oopgesluit, my klein dogtertjie (2 jaar) was saam, hulle het niks ekstra vir haar gevra nie, daar is ook lekker speelplek vir die kinders. Net die lugreëling in die kamer het nie gewerk nie, maar nadat ek gevra het, het hulle vir my die kamer langsaan se sleutel gegee om te gebruik soos ek wou. So basies het ek 2 kamers gehad vir die prys van 1! Verder geen klagtes, baie lekker gebly en die kos was uitstekend!

Very nice and peaceful place to relax, nice swimming and the food was some of the best!

Very well received, als was in order with paperwork, room was nice neat and clean and ready unlocked for us, my little daughter (2 years) was with them, they didn't ask anything extra for her, there is also a nice play area for the children . Only the air conditioner in the room didn't work, but after I asked, they gave me the room next door key to use as I wanted. So basically I had 2 rooms for the price of 1! Other than that, no complaints, very nice stay and the food was excellent!

A beautiful, clean venue with staff who want you to enjoy your stay and go above and beyond to ensure this.

The staff were friendly and helpful, the venue was clean and immaculately kept. There was a lovely playground for the kids to play and lots of game for them to spot from our room. The only drawback is the highway can be heard from the room, but not to the extent that it was a bother. A diamond in the rough.

Tevrede met verblyf.

Die verblyf is goed en privaat. Die etes wat verskaf is, was ook baie goed gewees en die omgewing is mooi. Daar moet egter meer aandag gegee word aan die skoonmaak van die eenhede.

Satisfied with stay.

The accommodation is good and private. The meals provided were also very good and the surroundings are beautiful. However, more attention should be paid to cleaning the units.

Good Afternoon Heiko

Thank you very much for your review.
We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us.

After our telephonic conversation I will investigate the matter and make sure to rectify the problem.
With the current drought and recent dust storms we have been having in the Free State it has been difficult to keep dust at bay.

Thank you again for the feedback. Without feedback from our guests we can't take the necessary action to rectify the issue. You can be sure that we will make the effort to find a solution for this problem.

Kind Regards
Bouwer Venter

'n Aangename verrassing.

Die Lodge is puik geleë teenaan 'n rivier en elke blyplek het 'n stoep wat uitkyk oor die veld. Die Jacuzzi en klein swembad bied privaatheid. Die restaurant en kroeg is gemaklik en die groot glasvensters is so ingerig om die omgewing se natuurskoon selfs te geniet terwyl jy eet of drink. Die wildritte gee jou kans om 'n wye verkeidenheid boksoorte en buffelsoorte te sien binne 'n kort tyd. Die aandete en ontbyt word keurig bedien, met die sjef wat vir elke ete 'n nuwe spyskaart saamstel - baie goeie waarde vir geld. Ons het gehou van die atmosfeer wat geskep word by die wooneenhede. Dit is smaakvol ingerig, netjies afgewerk en skep 'n moderne indruk. Dit is gerieflike, skoon en pragtige akkommodasie, heerlike kos, goeie waarde vir geld en daar is lieflike natuurskoon.

A pleasant surprise.

The Lodge is superbly situated by a river and each accommodation has a veranda overlooking the field. The Jacuzzi and small pool offer privacy. The restaurant and bar are comfortable and the large glass windows are arranged so that you can enjoy the natural beauty of the surroundings even while eating or drinking. The game drives give you a chance to see a wide variety of antelope and buffalo species within a short time. The dinner and breakfast are exquisitely served, with the chef creating a new menu for each meal - very good value for money. We liked the atmosphere created at the residential units. It is tastefully furnished, neatly finished and creates a modern impression. It is comfortable, clean and beautiful accommodation, delicious food, good value for money and there is lovely scenery.

Was verbasend verras deur die verblyf aangesien dit in die middel van nêrens is maar 100% die moeite werd gewees.
