We stayed for 3 nights to tour the Midlands. The resort is wonderful.

We stayed for 3 nights to tour the Midlands and to visit Hilton where the children were on activities. The resort is wonderful and while the dirt roads can be muddy, the distance means it's quiet and you get a chance to see some of the wild animals (Duiker, Owls, Scrub hare etc). The breakfasts are a real treat. I would stay there again if in the area.

Dis baie mooi, maar diens is swak.

Mooi plekkie, ons was 2 nagte daar, nogal baie betaal per aand, ons het nie ontbyt gehad nie maar ons was uit die oggend en sommer hul ondersteun vir ontbyt, geen diens en toe ons vra of ons kan ontbyt toe kyk die vrou ons snaaks uit en sê sy sal uitvind, ons het gesê los, maar ons sal in die dorp gaan eet, verder het hul nie die kamer skoongemaak nie, net die bed opgemaak, ons moes ons nat handdoeke gebruik en die borde wat gebruik was is nie gewas nie en net so gelos. Ons melk en koffie in die kamer is nie volgemaak nie en ons het toe nie melk of koffie weer gehad nie, verder soos ek sê baie mooi, maar die looppad na die karre kan mens nie gebruik nie, want daar is 'n bos wat die looppad toegroei en die paadjie se gras is lank. Ons moes om loop deur die modder, want dit het gereën, ek dink net vir dit wat ons gekry het is R900 'n aand werd en nie R1700 per aand nie.

It's very nice, but service is poor.

Nice place, we were there for 2 nights, paid quite a lot per night, we didn't have breakfast but we were out in the morning and just supported them for breakfast, no service and when we asked if we could have breakfast the woman looked at us funny out and said she'll find out, we said leave but we'll go eat in town, furthermore they didn't clean the room, only made the bed, we had to use our wet towels and the plates that were used weren't washed not and just left. Our milk and coffee in the room were not refilled and we then did not have milk or coffee again, otherwise as I say very nice, but the walkway to the cars cannot be used, because there is a bush that the walkway overgrown and the path's grass is long. We had to walk around through the mud because it was raining, I think just for what we got is worth R900 a night and not R1700 a night.

Stil.

Het ons verblyf regtig geniet. Stil en rustig met 'n baie mooi uitsig. Selfs bokkies wat saans voor ons stoep verby gestap het. Sal definitief weer terugkom.

Baie rusitge en stil lodge met mooi verblyf!

Ons het 2 Deluxe-kamers bespreek. Baie goeie waarde vir wat mens betaal. Die lodge is baie stil en rustig wat 'n groot plus is. Ons het alles nodig gehad in die eenheid wat ons benodig het. Groot plus vir die "block out" gordyne en DStv. Pragtige uitsig uit ons kamer uit. Al kritiek wat ek het is die skoonheid van die eenheid toe ons arriveer. Ons mikrogolf was baie vuil van kos van vorige gaste en ons stort se teëls teen muur was nie skoon nie (nog seep gehad van vorige gaste). Die eenheid het ook 'n afstof nodig agter die bed, en op die hang ligte. Die skoonmakers het die volgende dag ons albei se eenhede netjies kom maak deur skottelgoed te was en bed op te maak, wat bitter min gastehuise/lodges doen. Hiervoor gee ek 'n 10/10 vir diens. Die inklok en uitklok was ook baie maklik en gerieflik. Ek sal die lodge en Deluxe-kamers aanbeveel vir 'n naweek se verblyf.

Very quiet and quiet lodge with nice accommodation!

We booked 2 Deluxe rooms. Very good value for what you pay. The lodge is very quiet and peaceful which is a big plus. We had everything we needed in the unit that we needed. Big plus for the "block out" curtains and DStv. Beautiful view from our room. All criticism I have is the beauty of the unit when we arrived. Our microwave was very dirty from food from previous guests and our shower's wall tiles were not clean (still had soap from previous guests). The unit also needs a duster behind the bed, and on the hanging lights. The cleaners came the next day to tidy up both of our units by washing dishes and making the bed, which very few guesthouses/lodges do. For this I give a 10/10 for service. The check-in and check-out was also very easy and convenient. I would recommend the lodge and Deluxe rooms for a weekend stay.

Rustig en pragtige natuurskoon!

Die verblyf is baie netjies met die mooiste uitsig oor 'n vallei met 'n waterval. Lieflike area vir voëlkykers! Die personeel is vriendelik en ons het tuis gevoel. Heerlike ontbyt genuttig. Goeie waarde vir geld!

An amazing stay!

Beautifully located in Hilton, surrounded by a breathtaking view. Along with friendly service. My then 8 month old baby girl, took a real liking to Nancy and Gavin was on the ball. The accommodation was larger than expected - proper value for money. We will definitely be back in the not to distant future.

Nie 'n lekker ondervinding nie.

Die lodge word bereik met 'n slegte grondpad. Daar was geen braaigeriewe beskikbaar nie. Die lodge kan doen met aandag aan detail. Daar is geen ligte op die perseel nie, ons was skrikkerig toe ons die aand dorp toe moes gaan om uit te eet.

Not a nice experience.

The lodge is reached by a bad dirt road. There were no braai facilities available. The lodge could do with attention to detail. There are no lights on the premises, we were scared when we had to go into town to eat out in the evening.
