Beautiful place, gracious hosts. We felt welcomed, along with our children of varying ages. The playful yet unobtrusive resident dogs were a highlight of our stay. I would recommend this place to all.

Dissapointed

Description says that the lodge is located 14km from Sabie, however no mention is made that if you don't have a 4x4 you have to drive an 80km detour, and even then the road is terrible. My car sustained damage. We couldn't drive around and explore much - as planned. Amenities lists wifi, however this is capped and not in reach of the log cabin, therefore if you want to watch tv you have to use the communal tv. Gas oven is terrible - took 3 hours to cook what would normally take 1.

A charming experience "away from it all"

A warm welcome from Debbie the hostess and her two Great Danes, "Mug and Bean" was a comfort after the challenge of negotiating the gravel road to the lodge. However this should not concern you if you don't mind a little mud on your vehicle. The double bed in the cottage was one of the most comfortable I have slept in ..... with real feather pillows and duvet. A charming experience "away from it all" with ample hot water for the spa bath and electric blankets on the bed.

Serene setting

Beautiful place on earth. Perfectly quiet and comfortable lodging. However, my search was for a place to stay in Pilgrims Rest. The search result showed the lodge to be 12 km from Pilgrims Rest...which may be true if you are a crow flying. The nearest town was Sabie, and that was 25 km away. Pilgrims Rest was 40 km away.

Short but awesome visit - definitely heading back soon!

Bob and Debbie make this place oh so special - a bit off the beaten track so make sure that you follow the directions on the web but well well worth the trip for a serene stay with great hospitality.

Logement d'exception

Nous avons passé une nuit dans cette guest lodge. L'environnement est superbe, le logement parfait propre, spacieux, calme, avec une literie excellente. De part un malentendu informatique nous n'avions pas mangé comptant sur le repas du lodge, hors la propriétaire n'avait pas eu l'information du repas du soir. Elle nous a fait un repas improvisé délicieux. Un accueil très chaleureux des propriétaires et nous avons eu la chance d'avoir un jeune homme français présent qui nous a bien aidé pour la traduction et idées des parcours environnants à voir. Nous n'avons que des louanges à faire sur cet établissement. Seul difficulté : la situation du lodge est un peu difficile à trouver..mais une fois qu'on y est c'est superbe!! à recommander sans hesitation.

Warm welcome and excellent meal

This hotel was wonderful and the owner Debbie was very kind. After a hard day of long road we arrived late in the hotel and we did not know the restaurant was closed. But Debbie made for us a wonderful homemade diner. This meal was so great. Welcome was warm and the room beautifull. Good address.

Sehr abgelegen und speziell

Die Lodge für Abenteurer... Weg Richtung Pass, dann ca. 10 Minuten über Stock und Stein mit dem Auto. Abgelegen und speziell. Etwas lotterig und man nimmt es nicht sehr ernst mit der Sauberkeit. Freundliche Gastgeber, reichhaltiges Frühstück. Wir gingen am nahegelegenen Weiher fischen und wurden instruiert. Material steht zur Verfügung.
