Surprisingly rural, so close to town.
The room was neat and clean, with enough towels and a welcome chocolate on the bed. There is a kettle and coffee-making table in the room, and there were also biscuits left for us later in the afternoon. However, the common kitchen and dining room were dirty, untidy and full of cigarette butts. To use the microwave you have to brave the smell of smoke. Unfortunately, it overshadows the peace and quiet of an overnight stay where we could even watch 2 wild rabbits from our porch and the enjoyment we had of seeing and hearing all the birds in the thorn trees. With the dirt roads and all the rain we were glad we went with a 4x4.

Naby genoeg aan Potch om vinnig in te skiet, ver genoeg om stilte van die veld te kan waardeer.

Translate to English.
Close enough to Potch to shoot in quickly, far enough to appreciate the silence of the field.
The location of this place cannot be beat. Quiet in the countryside, but only a few km from the university. The lodge is still very new, so there are still a few bits of maintenance that need to be addressed. I believe it will happen quickly. You have to go through 3 security gates to get out. I was not aware of that and the code to enter was not provided to me. This made it quite awkward, so make sure you get the code for the gates before you get there. It is a dirt road for the last km to the lodge. I drive a Golf VI and have rubbed the middle man in more than one place. I suggest you go with a vehicle that has slightly more ride height than a Golf. The rooms are very neat, clean and nicely furnished. There is a shared kitchen and barbecue area. It has everything one needs. There is also a fridge with a larger freezer section in the kitchen. The outer decor in the little garden is not going to be everyone's "cup of tea", but it is probably the lodge's choice.

Quick visit to this place with a typical bushveld atmosphere is just the right thing for someone from Gauteng.
Thorntree Lodge is located in a small paradise, just outside town. The bushveld atmosphere was magical and far away from the city's hustle and bustle. The room is clean and ideal for someone looking for a nice stopover. The host and his wife is friendly and walked the extra myle to make sure everything is right and comfortable. Thank you for a lovely getaway in the bushes.

Much less than expected.
Upon my arrival I was told that my room was still dirty, and that I could choose another room (the previous person had already checked out the day before, so there was plenty of time to fix it). There was no room with a double bed available. When I spoke to the managers later, her words were "We usually give the single bed rooms to single people", despite the fact that I had booked a double bed, and made it clear from her attitude that my problem was not her concern. The rooms are very small, and although there is a small table, there are no chairs. So the only option is to sit on the bed and work. There is no top sheet on the beds, and only a very thin duvet. There are blankets in the closet, but the little room was freezing cold when I was there, and it was a very cold night. The place is quite far out of town. Positive points; they give a box of real milk for coffee and a bottle of biscuits. The shower has a decent shower head that casts a nice wide jet. Overall I was very disappointed, and will definitely not stay there again. Thorntree Lodge would probably be better classified as a "backpackers", and certainly not suitable if you expect any comfort after a long day to make your stay a little more homely.

The stay exceeded all expectations. Neat, clean, hospitable and facilities comprehensive.
Thank you very much Rina and Phillip. We were surprised by the beautiful amenities we found. Everything was ready for our stay (even if it was before the check-in time). The reception was friendly and welcoming. The room was neat, clean and comfortable. What is on offer at Thorntree Lodge is to be recommended to any visitor to Potch or surrounding areas. The peaceful environment offers rest and peace of mind. Good luck and blessings to Rina and Phillip. I hope it rains soon.

Incredibly quiet and clean. Aunt Rina and Uncle Phillip welcomed me as if we had known each other for a long time, with kindness and care. A home away from home.

Awesome place!
We were six friends for a men's weekend getaway. We were looking for a place where we could hang out privately as old friends, watch rugby and relax - away from the hustle and bustle of the city - somewhere in the countryside. Aunt Rina and Uncle Philip were very hospitable. The rooms were very nice and tidy. The kitchen was fully equipped, and the boma fire was burning all the time. The goats also give a pleasant tranquility to the welcome atmosphere. We went with the idea of holding our annual men's weekend there; and left the lodge with the thought of making men's weekend at Thorntree an annual institution!

The stay at Thorntree Lodge was very comfortable and definitely value for money.
Rooms are neat and equipped with everything you need. There is even a large shared kitchen where you can prepare your food and a fire place if you would like to barbecue. If you are looking for a place to just get lost in nature, this is the right place for you. Although it is 3 km outside the town it was not a problem for us as we preferred not to be in the noisy town.
