Reviews

What our visitors say

Top-notch accommodation in a beautiful historical and significant setting. The levels of hospitality are kept at a high, rooms are neat and accommodation is well finished; property is safe and fenced and great for the kids.

Fishing out of the Vaal River is arguably the best freshwater fishing the country has to offer. Ask the lodge manager or host about more to do in the area

Timothy Yorke-Hart

Excellent guest accommodation. Chalet rooms are very comfortable and equipped with everything you need for winter or summer. The communal kitchen/entertainment area is perfect for cooking big breakfasts and enjoying an evening fire. Adri is an exceptional host and ensured everything we needed was in place. Highly recommend this place.

Demi Naidoo

It’s simply beautiful, so peaceful and quiet, and you don’t need to take a thing except for clothing and food oh and something to drink, otherwise, it’s lovely there. Can even fish and swim, the cottages and tents are amazing, will definitely recommend and go again.

Lynda Koen

Great place for fishing and relaxing, hired the fishing cottage on the river, cottages have everything needed. The place is covered by trees so no need for an umbrella. Fishing is fantastic, no need to cast far, most fish caught around 50m. Biggest carp 6kg. Chairs and canoe provide. All you need to take is fishing equipment and food.
