Fantastic place with a great experience.

It is a fantastic place where you can get peace and quiet. The host is really friendly, and the place itself is a really great experience. You are close to nature and have a lot of wildlife around you. The food was really tasteful and well-prepared. This is a must to stay.

Pragtige ligging, minder goeie diens.

Ons het gelees dat die venue konferensiefasiliteite het en juis daarvoor bespreek. Na vele pogings om bestuurder daar in die hande te kry, het sy aan my assistent genoem dat ons wi-fi sou kon gebruik vir konferensie-oproepe. Toe ons aankom, moes ons uitvind dat die konferensiefasiliteit ook die gemeenskaplike eetkamer is. Dit is dus onmoontlik om as konferesiefasiliteit te gebruik. Die wi-fi was ook so swak dat ons glad nie Skype kon gebruik nie. Ons voel baie sterk dat hierdie venue nie konferensiegeriewe behoort te adverteer nie. Die omgewing is asemrowend mooi en die rustigheid heerlik, maar dit het ongelukkig nie aan ons verwagtinge voldoen soos beloof is nie.

Beautiful location, less good service.

We read that the venue has conference facilities and booked just for that. After many attempts to get hold of manager there, she mentioned to my assistant that we would be able to use wi-fi for conference calls. When we arrived, we were to find out that the conference facility is also the common dining room. It is therefore impossible to use as a conference facility. The wi-fi was also so weak that we couldn't use Skype at all. We feel very strongly that this venue should not advertise conference facilities. The surroundings are breathtakingly beautiful and the tranquility wonderful, but unfortunately it did not meet our expectations as promised.

Fantastic stay.

I would really recommend the Ndebele Cottages for an authentic bush experience. We loved it. Comfortable clean beds and the basics. We will be back.

Be able to drive on a windy dirt road for about 20 minutes.

Friendly staff and easy communication because I speak their language. Management very professional and exceptionally friendly, open to any discussion. Jonathan took his own time in the evening waiting for us to come back from the Schotia Game Drive. Disappointed that breakfast was not included in the booking price and I think they should work on their payment follow up.

Peace and quiet

We enjoyed our stay away from the noise and the crackers of the end of year celebrations. On the last evening of 2014 the sounds of nature and the crackling of the bonfire was all we heard... which was sheer heaven!

Remote rural setting, but only 45 mins to Addo Elephant Park, with friendly hospitality and comfortable rooms

Awesome place! Jonathan and the staff were very friendly and hospitable. We really enjoyed the kudo potjie and staff choir on Saturday evening, and the big bonfire and starry night. Note that Addo Palace no longer has any self-catering units.

Mooie rustige omgewing. Personeel baie vriendelik en kamers erg mooi.

Erg mooie rustige plek. Het verblyf is erg mooi ingerig en skoon. Die etes was smullekker. Personeel erg behulpsaam en die motor is voor ons vertrek selfs gewas!

Fantastische locatie!

Heerlijke plek om te verblijven in die area waar de dorpen minder netjes en schoon zijn. Als je naar elephant park wilt, moet je wel reistijd insluiten.

Fantastic location!

Lovely place to stay in the area where the towns are less tidy and clean. If you want to go to the elephant park, you must include travel time.

Donker binne en 'n rare uitleg.

Ek sal die plek slegs vir studente aanbeveel teen R200 per nag per student.

Dark inside and a weird layout.

I would recommend the place only for students at R200 per night per student.

Rustig en vreedsaam.

Alles was baie lekker en vreedsaam. Die enigste probleem is dat twee eenhede nie totaal privaat is nie weens 'n muur wat nie toegebou is nie. Anders was dit heerlik rustig en gesellig, met baie vriendelike bestuur.

Quiet and peaceful.

Everything was very nice and peaceful. The only problem is that two units are not completely private due to a wall that is not closed. Otherwise it was delightfully peaceful and cosy, with very friendly management.
