Fantastic manor house, with truly hospitable staff, an amazing menu and inspired decor. The view of the Eastern Drakensberg, Mariepskop and Blyde river valley is awe-inspiring. Dinners were especially unique, fun and special..
Fantastic food! Great ambience! Stunning setting!
The view is amazing just a place to be in Hoedspruit.
Stunning place. View is amazing, rooms are luxurious, staff is very kind. They have stay-packages, which includes wide range of drinking choices, great 4 course dinners, breakfast and 2 activities. Wifi is free, but not so good. Just to note - the game drives in their package are inside the private reserve, while entering Kruger national park is an additional full day activity, with a significant cost (around 1500 rands). The private reserve does have many animals (said to home 4 of the big 5, minus elephants), but buffalo/lion/leopard sightings are scarce and hard to come by. They are also home to the "Rhino Revolution" facility, which grows endangered baby rhinos! They are adorable, and you can easily go see them as an activity. Overall, wonderful place to stay, even if a bit pricy.
Lovely view and friendly staff
We stayed in the Honeymoon suite. It was absolutely amazing! The staff were friendly. The meals are good. You can discuss with chef on breakfast, lunch and dinner plans. The safari trip was good, even though we didnt spot enough animals as we wished. Enjoyed the garden and lying on the beach chair having the staff serving you wines with blue canyon as the background.
Spectacular Spot. Amazing views. A must.
Absolutely wonderful! The staff, food, views, and the price were unbeatable. The game drives and activities were perfect and it was so nice that everything was a la carte instead of a package. A perfect experience! I can't wait to go back!
Super chilled holiday
This is a hidden gem in the bush. Beautiful manor house with luxury, friendly staff and great hosts Trevor and Lisa. Views of mountain and waterhole with plenty of animals.One of our best days ever. Hope to go back soon!
A very pleasant start of our holiday in SA. Friendly staff, beautiful accomodation and delicious food.
