Comfortable simple well-equipped farmhouse ideal for family visits.
Had a wonderful visit and stay, ordinary, unadorned farmhouse with everything you need for a large group. Kitchen nicely equipped with dishwasher. Roof fans help with heat and mosquitoes. Pool was clean. Terribly dry in the area so garden suffered, but I believe as soon as it rains it will also look beautiful.

Dit was van die begin tot die einde pret. Net wat mens nodig het vir verjaarsdag naweek wanneer jy nie lus is vir te veel doen of saam te vat nie.

It was fun from start to finish. Just what you need for a birthday weekend when you don't feel like doing too much or packing.
We saw many animals, literally walking around the family house. It is peaceful and no one bothers you. There is a maid who came to clean for us every day and made sure anything we were looking for was sorted with just a phone call away. We will definitely come here again with all our friends.

Fanie, the owner, was kind and helpful. Dinokeng is a beautiful area, bushy with lots of animals. It was pretty quiet and pleasant for us.

Neat, comfortable accommodation in the silence of the bushveld. Owner very hospitable.
We had a great time and our reception and stay at Thekwane Lodge was everything we expected. All that bothered me a little was the traffic on the main road that runs not too far past it. We can recommend Thekwane to anyone looking for a bushveld experience. The lodge is centrally located and the entire Dinokeng park is easily accessible.

We had a very nice stay. Fanie is very helpful and so is Bodwell. Beautiful farm house with everything you need. Quiet, surrounded by wildlife that we just watched from the lapa. The Thekwane house is extremely spacious with more than enough sleeping space and bathrooms

The pool was a life saver.
Outside, the site is very neglected. The shower facilities in the bath are not good for people over 70 years old, my mother who is 90 years old could not use them. There are cobwebs behind the headboards of the beds.

Had a very nice stay in a beautiful and clean house!
Very well and friendly received. The house meets all the requirements for a nice stay. May I just say that the area around the house leaves much to the imagination. The little building by the swimming pool is a dumping ground, no grass, etc. The house's beautiful inside does not match the outside or the "garden".

We urgently needed a rest weekend. The pace in the city drains you. We got rest and more at Thekwena. We were welcomed like family. The lodge is super clean. Although it is a self-catering unit, we were spoiled by Anna. She made the BEST porridge and sauce ever for our barbecue. We had a wonderful rest. On the game drive we saw elephants and numerous species of buck. We recharged our batteries and were ready for the city again. We can highly recommend the lodge.
