A beautiful unit on a working farm with staff that care for their guests.
Idle & Wild is the example of how rental units should look and be managed. The staff are friendly and helpful while the unit itself exceeded our expectations. It is in a beautiful setting with beautifully laid out gardens and well maintained. We stayed there for two nights while visiting the Kruger National Park. The staff went out of their way to help us, even with directions from where to drive in the Park. The breakfast served was of a high standard, while breakfast was packed for us when we had to leave early in the morning. Idle & Wild is not just an overnight stop, here you have to stay longer.

Excellent, personal and friendly service by the owners with excellent breakfast.
Before we could get out of the car, the owner was there to welcome us. Our unit was clean and neat, and nothing was wrong. Breakfast was excellent and delicious. Nothing is too much effort for the owners. We'll definitely stay there again next year and already recommended it to our friends.

Absolutely fantastic, the silence was deafening, just what we wanted.
We had a great time relaxing and the service and friendliness was something to experience. We were able to go for a walk and really enjoyed it. The silence was really fantastic and we could relax quietly by the pool or just sit quietly and read a book. The breakfast was excellent and prepared and presented with great taste. The rondavel has everything we wanted and felt very safe at all times. Thank you very much, we really enjoyed it.

Absolutely great and fantastic stay. The family is very friendly and hospitable and always smiling.
Will definitely visit again. The breakfasts are delicious and the fact that rondavel was serviced daily was a plus. The owners' smiles in the morning make you feel excited for the day ahead. They know the area well and recommendations on attractions were fantastic. The gardens are well looked after and are a treat for the eyes. A lot of emphasis is given to fine detail and the food pack for the wildlife park carried us through the whole day. Packed breakfast. We were definitely very impressed with stay and will come again. Keep it up!

Everything was perfect. Nice, clean, comfortable and very friendly with excellent breakfast.
Reception was personal and friendly. The gardens and buildings are beautiful and well maintained. The room with hot tub was beautiful with everything sparkling clean and fresh. Breakfast was served on the veranda the next morning and although it was cold the log fire brightened everything up with a warm blanket over the chair ready to throw over your legs or shoulders. The breakfast was freshly prepared while we were drinking coffee and was deliciously hot and tasty. We are going back next year and this time for more than just one night.

Besides the fact that I couldn't sleep, even though it was a quiet, beautiful area, everything was picturesque and good.
Fantastic area. Open plan bathroom not a good idea. Luckily my tavel partner couldn't accompany me because of illness. Heavy blankets on the beds, old and not nice. Otherwise no complaints.

Quiet, neat and very nicely maintained garden around accommodation.
Upon our arrival, our 5 month old son was excited about the long road. We were immediately rushed to the rescue and assisted until our child was himself again. Then began a wonderful 10 long-awaited days. Comfortable accommodation. Beautiful scenery and wonderful staff. Friendly and helpful. First class breakfast and their knowledge of the area helped us fit in as much as possible with our time in the area. We as a family really enjoyed it and you made our way back feel so short. We could only talk about your warm humanity and nice stay. Here where I sit and get cold in South America, my heart just warms to think of you. For us as a family see you again.
