Opwindend!

Ons kon baie lekker ontspan en West het ons baie tuis laat voel.

Groot bederf, vriendelike diens en baie lekker kos.

Die Lodge eienaars het ons hartlik ontvang en ons 30ste huweliksherdenking baie spesiaal gemaak. Personeel was vriendelik en behulpsaam en die kos was heerlik. Ek sal hierdie pragtige plek vir enige iemand aanbeveel.

Great treat, friendly service and wonderful food.

The lodge owners received us warmly and made our 30th wedding anniversary really special. The staff was friendly and helpful and the food delicious. Would recommend this beautiful place to anyone.

Beslis nie waarde vir geld nie. Verblyf baie mooi, kos is tuna uit 'n blikkie met mayo.

Atmosfeer en tente is great. Kos is nie aanvaarbaar nie, en bittermin aandag word gegee om kos voor te berei en te bedien wat by die kamp pas. Ek stel voor jy vat jou eie blikkie tuna en mayonnaise want dis wat jy bedien gaan word. Om op 'n Saterdagaand 'n blikkie tuna as voorgereg te gee en afgewaterde kerrie mince is beslis nie wat jy verwag nie nie. Die prys wat etes insluit is beslis nie die geld werd nie. Die leeus is lankal nie meer welpies nie en is al 5 jaar oud. Die foto's op die webtuiste is misleidend en nie al die foto's is van dieselfde lodge nie, dus kan jy 'n verwagting hê wat jy nie gaan kry nie. Ek sou dit beslis nie voorstel as 'n blyplek in die toekoms nie.

Definitely not value for money. Very nice stay, food is tuna from a can with mayo.

Atmosphere and tents are great. Food is not acceptable, and very little attention is paid to preparing and serving food that suits the camp. I suggest you take your own can of tuna and mayonnaise because that's what you'll be served. Giving a can of tuna as a starter and watered down curry mince on a Saturday night is certainly not what you expect. The price that includes meals is definitely not worth the money. The lions are no longer cubs and are already 5 years old. The photos on the website are misleading and not all the photos are of the same lodge, so you may have an expectation that you will not get. I would definitely not suggest this as a place to stay in the future.

Good day,

Thank you for your feedback.

We have only ever had good reports about our lodge and our food. This guest arrived with an agenda and unfortunately has proceeded to tarnish our reputation for some reason, on all social media platforms. I am of the opinion that he does this wherever he stays. He expects to pay a low rate and get a five-star accommodation.

Our lions are not even two and a half yet. This is quite clear on our website. There are pictures of them when they were younger right through to how they look now.

Fantasties!

Wonderlike gasvryheid deur West en Gill. Wens ons het eerder by die tent-chalets gebly. Dis beter toegerus en verkies om by die mense wat jou huisves se eenhede te bly. Die Leeuloop was ook 'n asemrowende ervaring. Baie dankie Uncle West en Auntie Gill.

Fantastic!

Wonderful hospitality from West and Gill. Wish we rather stayed in the tented chalets. Better equipped and prefer to stay in units of people who accomodate you. The "Leeuloop" was also a breathtaking experience. Theank you very much Uncle West and Auntie Gill.
