Heerlik!

Baie lekker! Gasvry en behulpsaam. Ons het baie welkom gevoel. Aflaai en inlaai van ons bagasie was lekker bederf. Enigste negatiewe kommentaar is dat die mure bietjie 'dun' is. Mense agter ons het ons wakker gehou.

Vriendelik, gasvry, pragtig, goed toegeruste verblyf in die bos. Ons kom weer!

Die tuin se netheid het ons dadelik opgeval, oppad na ons kamer. Die kamer was pynlik netjies en skoon en goed toegerus. Geen versoek was moeite vir die gasheer en ook nie vir hulle personeel nie. Die gasheer het baie moeite gedoen om die wildritte so interessant en verassend as moontlik te maak. Ons het die verblyf en alles wat daarmee saamgaan terdeë geniet. Nogmaals baie dankie aan die gasheer, die personeel en die verblyf by Crimson Bush Lodge.

Friendly, hospitable, beautiful, well-equipped accommodation in the forest. We come again!

The garden's cleanliness immediately struck us, on our way to our room. The room was painfully neat and clean and well equipped. No request was too much trouble for the host nor for their staff. The host has put a lot of effort into making the game drives as interesting and surprising as possible. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay and everything that went with it. Many thanks again to the host, the staff and the accommodation at Crimson Bush Lodge.

Crimson Bush Lodge is by far the best place we had the privilege of staying at. We will be going again in December with family and friends. The owners and staff are so amazing, really no words to describe our appreciation for their kindness. The pictures does not do justice to the place. Place is actually more nicer and pretty and serene than the pictures.

Crimson Bush Lodge is net 'n uur se ry vanaf Pretoria geleë. Die kamers is ruim, gerieflik ingerig, modern en baie skoon. Ons kon pragtige wild sien drink vanaf ons kamer se stoep. Die lodge is ideaal uitgelê en ingerig vir groter groepe mense om ook gemaklik saam te kan kuier.

Die eienaars, Johan en Jeanette, is baie vriendeli en vertel graag 'n storie of 2 van hoe hul die plek gekoop het. Die werkers is altyd daar om te help van vroegoggend tot laat in die aande as jy iewers gaan kuier. Sipho was regtig ons regterhand elke dag en nag. Ons kan regtig Crimson Bush Lodge aanbeveel vir enige iemand. Die plek en diens is van hoogstaande gehalte, skoon en netjies.

Hulle het uit hulle pad uitgegaan om my kuier daar aangenaam te maak. Ek het baie tuis gevoel.

Ontspanne, heerlike kuier!

Eienaars baie verwelkomend, ekstra moeite gedoen veral met wildrit. Sal beslis weer kom!

Gerieflik met uitsigte oor watergate.

Die eienaar, sy vrou en hulle dogter het hulle vinger op die pols, personeel is lieflik en gee gaste persoonlike aandag. Plek is mooier as op foto's.

A warm welcome by Janet and Sipho, we booked the two lofts and the rooms were clean.

We loved the large patio and braai area, the location is beautiful and peaceful. We would love to return and dip in pool and a game drive.

Dit was beste wegbreek wat ek al ooit gehad het by Dinokeng!

Die lodge het genoeg plek om te swem en te braai, die fasiliteite is skoon en netjies en die gasheer en staf is baie vriendelik. Crimson Bush lodge sit presies in die hartjie van Dinokeng. Dis ideaal geleë naby aan die hoofpad maar vêr genoeg om te voel jy is diep in die bos, vêr van die stad.

It was the best break I've ever had at Dinokeng!

The lodge has enough space for swimming and barbecuing, the facilities are clean and tidy and the host and staff are very friendly. Crimson Bush lodge sits right in the heart of Dinokeng. It's ideally located close to the main road but far enough to feel like you're deep in the woods, far from the city.

Terrific stay.

We booked the Deluxe suite with Spa Bath. It is a stunning and well equipped two-bedroom cottage in a beautiful private garden. Loved the firepit/braai area and was great to watch animals at the waterhole from our patio. Johan and Janet were great hosts and very accommodating on every request that we made. Sipho and his cleaning staff were superb and made themselves available whenever required. This was a fantastic stay and highly recommended for a relaxing weekend away.

Skoon, netjies en met vriendelike diens.

Dit was 'n heerlike wegbreek naweek gewees. Johan & Janet is baie vriendelik en gasvry en gaan uit hul pad uit om mens gemaklik en tuis te laat voel. Die werkers is die oulikste en mees oplettendste mensies, baie hulpvaardig en vriendelik.

Alles wat skoon, netjies en die werkers was wonderlik en baie vriendelik.

Die enigste probleem was dat daar nêrens vir ons gesê is dat ons 'n stoep en swembad met die loft langsaan deel nie. 'n Muur op die stoep tussen die 2 eenhede sal meer privaatheid bied. Dit is baie vreemd om 10 tree op dieselfde stoep saam vreemde mense te sit. En as jy om die hoek sit by die 1 lodge kan jy glad nie die watergat sien nie.

Everything clean, tidy and the workers were wonderful and very friendly.

The only problem was that nowhere were we told that we were sharing a porch and pool with the loft next door. A wall on the porch between the 2 units would provide more privacy. It is very strange to sit 10 steps on the same porch with strange people. And if you sit around the corner at the 1 lodge you cannot see the water hole at all.

Baie dankie vir jou terugvoer. Ons waardeer gaste se insette en het die afskortings reeds verlede jaar bestel. Die 2 eenhede is splinternuut en julle eenheid het volle uitsig op die watergat en bos. Die ander eenheid se kuierarea is uit julle eenheid se sig en waardevolle inligting en insette word baie waardeer.
