River Cottage Lodge

Comfortable and restful.

Simple accommodations but very comfortable and clean. Friendly, helpful and accommodating team. A lovely, restful and rejuvenating stay.

Value and beauty.

Excellent stay! Excellent riverside views. Very clean and neat. The host is the perfect host! Absolute value for money.

Prachtige stoep aan Krokodilrivier waar jy olifante en seekoeie kan sien.

Ons het lekker gebly. Rustig. Mooi verzorgd.

Sien River Cottage Lodge weer volgende jaar.

Baie lekker gerus. Baie vriendelike bestuurder, Greg. Ongelooflike uitsig oor die Kruger. Malelane hek uitstekend om Groot 5 raak te loop.

Sal die plek definitief aanbeveel. Rustige omgewing en pragtige uitsig oor die Kro.

Heerlik gekuier vir 12 dae. Eenhede netjies en skoon, en het alles wat mens nodig het. Ligging is uitstekend om in te ry wildtuin toe by die Malelane- of die Krokodilbrug-hek. Swembad altyd skoon en pragtig om in af te koel, en tuine pragtig. Uitsig oor die Krokodilrivier is pragtig, en het baie wild gesien oor die rivier vanuit die uitkyk by die swembad. 'n goeie bestuurder van River Cottage Lodge, altyd behulpsaam en vriendelik, en help uit met enige ekstra versoeke of nodige inligting!

Cottage of first choice for access to Southern Kruger Park.

Wonderful location on the banks of the Crocodile River near shopping facilities at Malelane and access to Kruger Park. Comfortable old cottage and all necessary equipment. Lovely boma overlooking river and clean swimming pool. Very helpful friendly host.

Plek waar mens vir 'n week of wat kan bly en elke dag inry Kruger Park toe ook.

Ideaal geleë op die Krokodilrivier! Sien Kruger Park se diere vanaf jou blyplek. Gasvry en mooi omgewing. Die toerusting in die kothuis/kombuis was net beperk en opgradering/konstruksie rondom woonareas is onvoltooid. Sodra dit in plek is - perfekte bestemming!

Old world character, go there while you still can.

Return visit. This is a great location, with a wonderful viewing terrace overlooking Kruger and a 'colonial' house with an ancient baobab! My room had a strong smoky odour, which was not pleasant, but they changed the pillows and sheets for the second night, and that was much better. The (new?) owner plans to totally refurbish and turn it into a private resort, so go there while you still can!

A hidden gem.

To get here, you pass the train tracks and a sugar refinery! What will you discover? Despite this, it is a hidden gem, with old trees, an ancient baobab, and great views of Kruger (elephants, lion, buck, crocodiles). Feels like a bit of the old colonial world--don't modernize it too much. Really enjoyed the personal touch--and many fellow guests say they return every year. Only downside: stayed in two rooms, and the second smelled strongly of smoke.

Sal weer daar bly.

Ons het lekker gebly en die gasheer en sy vrou was altyd vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die eenheid was netjies en gereeld gediens.

A very convenient stop over on the way to the KNP.

We enjoyed our stay. It was comfortable and well-equipped. Thank you, Greg.

Very relaxing and stunning views of the river.

Very nice and spacious rooms. Relaxing view from the deck overlooking the river.

Everything you need for a stopover and fantastic views over the river with hippos.

Only a single evening with a large bridal party en route to Kruger Park but an excellent stopover.

Very pleasant.

Lovely view over the river.

The most amazing location, incredible views into Kruger with game viewing all day!

Absolutely perfect for a cosy, self-catering, base camp. No reason to stay in Kruger, gate around the corner! Our host Greg was super and went out of his way, more than just the extra mile, to ensure our stay was incredible!

Great little place, will be amazing when all the renovations are finished.

We saw amazing game across the river.

Lekker gekuier.

Plek was skoon en netjies. Sal weer daar slaap.

Ideale oorslaapplek as jy op pad Wildtuin /Mosambiek toe is.

Vriendelik ontvang. Mooi uitkykpunte oor rivier en Wildtuin.

Baie lekker, rustig geslaap, mooi natuurskoon.

Baie lekker gebly, net slaapplek gesoek vir 2 aande, my seun het gholf gespeel vir die naweek vir die mpumalanga foundation, plek was mooi skoon en netjies.

Dit was heerlik om op die oewer van die Krokodilrivier te kuier.

River Cottage Lodge is gerieflik geleë. Ons het dit geniet om in die tuin te sit en die olifante in die rivier dop te hou. Die eenheid self is gerieflik, ruim, silverskoon en netjies. Gereedskap in die kombuis was ietwat beperk en dit sal handig wees om 'n snybord en rasper te hê. Personeel was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Ons sal enige tyd weer daar kuier!

Fine ok fine ok fine.

Fine fine ok fine ok fine fine ok fine ok fine.

Diep teleurgesteld en glad nie aan te beveel vir enige iemand nie.

Nee, die eenheid is uiterswak toegerus. Geen oond, net tweeplaatstoof. Geen slaaibakke. Geen kasserol. Geen slaailepels. Braaipan met gebreekte handvatsel. Geen eierspaan. Geen kurktrekker. Geen braaigereedskap. Geen kruidenierskas. Jy moet uit 'n koelbox leef. Geen skottelgoeddroograk. Seephouders in bad en stort is stukkend.
