Fantastiese plek, baie lekker gebly.

Baie skoon en netjies, alles wat nodig is plus nog! Baie diere het kom hallo sê en die toring is 'n groot pluspunt, baie lekker gebly en gekuier, sal beslis weer daar gaan bly.

Great stay.

This has been our second stay at this cottage in Marloth Park. It is by far our favorite place in Marloth to stay. Being opposite the Crocodile River/Kruger fence, you constantly hear the hippos in the river. There is also an abundance of bird life for the birding enthusiast.

A comfortable and relaxing stay, highly recommended.

Our stay was comfortable and relaxing, the accommodation was spotless and well-stocked with everything needed for a self-catering stay. An added benefit was the inverter and batteries that kept the lights on during load shedding. The pool was a lifesaver during the 40-degree plus days.

Relaxing stay in the bush.

We had a wonderful stay at Kruger View Cottage. It has everything you need for a stay in the bush. The cottage is well located with a view of the Kruger. It is great to have the lookout deck, although not much can be seen as the trees are overgrown and blocking the view. All in all, we had a very relaxing time - we will definitely return to Kruger View Cottage!

This was a relaxed weekend with friends. The cottage location is close to the fence of Kruger. We had a wonderful time there. The swimming pool is perfect for those hot days and near the fireplace to keep an eye on the kids. All 3 rooms have on-suite bathrooms that made it much easier for our guests.

Ons het baie lekker gekuier as 'n familie (almal pensioenarisse). Die verblyf is baie rolstoel vriendelik wat ons verblyf vergemaklik het.

Ons het veral die nagapies se besoek geniet. Ons het gesukkel om die huis te kry op Google Maps. Ons het aanvanklik nie gesien dat Warthog Road nog aangaan waar dit draai in die rigting van die rivier nie. Ons was aangenaam verras met die kampstoele en kussings, dit het buite kuier baie vergemaklik. Ons het wel 'n enkel lig by die braai gemis, aangesien al drie buite ligte met net een skakelaar gewerk het en dit baie goggas gelok het wat die buite sit saans moeilik gemaak het.

We had a great time as a family (all pensioners). The accommodation is very wheelchair friendly which made our stay easier.

We especially enjoyed the night owls' visit. We had trouble finding the house on Google Maps. At first we didn't see that Warthog Road continued where it turns towards the river. We were pleasantly surprised with the camping chairs and cushions, it made visiting outside a lot easier. We did miss a single light at the barbeque as all three outside lights worked with only one switch and this attracted a lot of bugs which made sitting outside at night difficult.

Not all requirements fulfilled.

We said we needed an oven that worked as we would not be braaiing. However, during load shedding the microwave, toaster and other plugs in the kitchen did not work. So we were limited to what could be cooked on the gas stove. Also despite asking about the supply of electricity, the last night we were there nothing worked.

Self-Catering Cottage 's response

Dear Kathy

I am so sorry you had these issues with the load shedding in the cottage at Marloth Park. We do have an inverter to keep essential items running during load shedding. These include all lights , fridge, and TV. Appliances that could burn out the battery back-up system like, the oven, microwave and kettle, are disconnected during the hours of load shedding . The new stove has a gas oven and I apologise profusely for not explaining how to use it. Unfortunately on your final afternoon on the 13th, Eskom had a major fault throughout the Marloth Park section and was only repaired the following evening . The battery back up had subsequently run flat during the evening without Eskom charging it

Once again I apologise for any inconvenience caused during the load shedding

Kind regards

Rodney

Netjies, modern en goed geleë.

Ideal vir klein na medium groepe met alle nodige geriewe vir 'n kort wegbreek. Die kothuis se ligging langs die Krugerwildtuin/Krokodilrivier het beteken dat ons bederf was met die geluid van olifante se trompetter terwyl ons gebraai en in die swembad ontspan het. Met net so paar tree se stap kon ons ook die olifante vir onsself sien waar hul anderkant die draad gewei het. Ons was ook naby aan die winkelsentrums en restaurante, terwyl ons steeds ons privaatheid kon geniet. Die kothuis is netjies en modern en ek sal definitief in die toekoms weer daar wil bly.

Neat, modern and well located.

Ideal for small to medium groups with all necessary facilities for a short break. The cottage's location next to the Kruger National Park/Crocodile River meant we were treated to the sound of elephants trumpeting while we barbecued and relaxed in the pool. With just a few steps, we could also see the elephants for ourselves where they grazed on the other side of the wire. We were also close to the shopping centers and restaurants, while still being able to enjoy our privacy. The cottage is neat and modern and I would definitely like to stay there again in the future.

Beautiful and Relaxing in nature.

Absolutely beautiful from the time we arrived at Marloth Park itself and then the drive within to our accommodation which the current pictures don't do it justice! We found the accommodation clean and welcoming and our host was easily contactable for suggestions on what to do in the area. We were with small kids and the accommodation was absolutely perfect both indoors and outdoors. The only things you need to bring are your food, clothes and exploring attitude, otherwise everything is provided. Everything! Have fun and enjoy your time in this cottage - it's nature at its best, can't get better than this.

Beautiful and well-equipped house. We loved our stay and can only recommend it.

We decided on short notice to extend our stay at Marloth Park, but the house we were staying in wasn't available and how glad were we that we couldn't get our initial house for 2 more nights and ended up in this house. It was beautiful and clean (unlike the previous house, cleanliness was an issue there) and just perfect with lots of space and everything one would need from a home away from home. I loved the fact that it has a combined stove top with 2 electric and 2 gas plates which was a blessing as we had a lot of power problems at Marloth Park during our stay. The house even features a wheelchair-friendly bathroom. We also had lots of visits from different antelopes, warthogs and bush babies. It is just perfect!

Lovely private getaway close to the Kruger Park.

Lovely, clean home in a great location with nice small pool and everything needed for a comfortable stay. The visitors (zebra, buck, warthog, mongoose, giraffe) were a special treat as we enjoyed the pool patio and braai. Hope to visit again soon!

Rustig.

Netjies. Vriendelike gasheer. Baie voël spesies gesien. Die cottage is teenaan die wildtuin se draad geleë. Die boonste verdieping is heerlik met twee slaapkamers en badkamer met dek en uitkyktoring. Die jonges kon heeldag daar gekuier het terwyl ons onder by die braai gekuier het. Die eenheid is baie goed en gerieflik uiteen gesit.

Restful.

Tidy. Friendly host. Many bird species seen. The cottage is located opposite the wildlife garden's fence. The upper floor is delightful with two bedrooms and bathroom with deck and lookout tower. The youngsters could have hung out there all day while we hung out downstairs at the braai. The unit is very well and conveniently laid out.

Baie lekker maar die view area was 'n teleurstelling.

Als was netjies en skoon, baie gemaklike huis, maar ons het die plek bespreek omdat ons 'n view van die Krokodilrivier van die huis af wou sien. Die huis is teen die grensdraad van die wildtuin maar die viewing area is toegegroei deur hoë bome. Kan nie eintlik iets daar sien nie. (Weet nie of dit net so was omdat dit so baie gereën het nie?) Die viewing area moes net 'n bietjie hoër gewees het, sodat mens bo-oor die bome kan sien. Anders as dit was ons baie gelukkig met die verblyf!

Very nice but the view area was a disappointment.

Als was neat and clean, very comfortable house, but we booked the place because we wanted to see a view of the Crocodile River from the house. The house is against the boundary wire of the wildlife park but the viewing area is overgrown by tall trees. Can't really see anything there. (Don't know if it was just like that because it rained so much?) The viewing area should have been just a little higher, so that you can see over the trees. Other than that we were very happy with the stay!

The most relaxing weekend ever!

If you are looking for a destination that seems to have been dropped in the Bush, look no further. We loved absolutely everything about Kruger View Cottage - from the perfect splash pool, the oh-so-comfortable beds, the well equipped kitchen to the wonderful silence (except for the animal and insect sounds, of course). The regular 4-legged visitors had us keeping our eyes focused on the bush wondering what we would see next but our nightly visits from the Bush Babies were an absolute highlight. The cottage is wonderfully private and you can almost forget that you aren't completely alone in this little piece of paradise however, there are stores catering to your every need, should you have run out of your favorite wine. For anyone wanting to have their creature comforts, in the bush, Kruger View Cottage comes highly recommended.

Lekker in die bos.

Baie oulike plekkie. Netjies en skoon binne! Gras om die huisie moet asb. gesny word. Dit maak dat daar baie insekte is.

Nice in the woods.

Very cute place. Neat and clean inside! Grass around the house must please. be cut. This means that there are many insects.

Hi there,
Here in Marloth Park, especially as I am an honorary ranger, we get rid of weeds but keep indigenous vegetation unspoiled for the wild animals to eat. We cut along pathways and a meter around the house.
I know there are many properties with manicured lawns in Marloth Park, but that is not what is good for the animals. The more vegetation that is cut, the fewer animals the Park can sustain. Insects are a fact of life in the bush, especially in summer. Light attracts them to the houses. The windows have gauze to exclude these pests but insect repellent will help if sitting outside.

Baie sleg.

Dit is baie vuil. Die plek is vol kokkerotte. Die badkamer is verskriklik vuil. Al die moes ons eers was voor ons dit kon gebruik het.

Dit was vir ons n skok om hierdie terugvoering te kry, omdat ons voor elke besoek seker maak dat die huis deeglik skoon is.
Daar is definetief nie n plaag kokkerotte nie.
Die gaste het ons gladnie gekontak oor enige probleme tydens hulle besoek nie sodat ons toekortkominge dadelik kon regstel nie.
Daar was reeds 'n groot afslag gegee per persoon vir 'n groot huis reg op die rivier wat uitkyk op die wildtuin.

Baie lekker, net te kort.

Baie lekker huis. By rivier geleë en nie ver van hoofpad af nie. Koedoes/sebras/rooibokke en vlakvark het kom kuier en in die aand die nagapie. Net stort in hoofslaapkamer is warm en dan koud en dan weer warm en dan weer koud. En dan 'n versoek: 'n veiligheidshek by deur opsit wat na kar toe gaan. Moes deur heeltyd toe hou as ons buite op stoep gesit het vir bobbejane en veiligheid. Kombuis en sitkamer word dan warm en bedompig.

Very nice, just too short.

Very nice house. Located by river and not far from main road. Kudus/zebras/roebucks and warthogs came to visit and in the evening the night owl. Only shower in master bedroom is hot and then cold and then hot again and then cold again. And then a request: put a security gate on the door leading to the car. Had to keep the door closed all the time when we sat outside on the porch for baboons and safety. Kitchen and living room then become hot and stuffy.

Dankie vir julle kuiertjie. Dit was 'n plesier om julle hier te huisves. En dankie vir die terugvoer. 'n Veiligheidshek is a goeie idee.
Die water temperatuur wissel as gevolg van Marloth Park se waterdruk. Dit is ook 'n goeie idee om nie die warm water te stel as die water te warm is nie, maar net koue water groter oop te maak want soms sal die gas wat die water verhit afskakel as die druk te veel wissel.

Baie wild in Marloth gesien. Winkels het omtrent alles wat mens benodig.

Lovely!

We had a most enjoyable week's stay at Kruger View Cottage. The only complaint was the ceiling fans did not help at all with the intense heat, air-conditioning would be wonderful. We were also a bit disappointed that neither the owner or supervisor popped-in for a visit. Just a pity the front of the cottage was very overgrown. The animals, there were plenty, it was such a treat ─ especially when the warthogs came to the cottage to be hand fed, as mentioned above, because of the overgrowth the giraffes, zebras, buck just passed the cottage.
