Beautiful, peaceful and quiet.

I have visited the largest Baobab tree before, but I think the one I saw at the farm is the largest. This camp is comprised of 6 tents with a beautiful view of the mountain and the orange farm. I was the only guest at the farm, which means I had access to every part of the camp. The complimentary Wi-Fi never disappointed. I enjoyed every moment of my stay at the camp. Wonderful host and I will definitely return very soon. This place is amazing and clean.

Rustig, salig, sorgvry!

Ons het ons tyd by die Baobab Tent Camp terdeë geniet! Die area is beeldskoon en die rustigheid is 'n welkome afwisselling op die geharwar van die stad. Dit is puik geleë om die suide van Limpopo en die noorde van Mpumalanga te verken – met maklike toegang tot die Krugerwildtuin en die Blyderivierspoort. Die eienaars is gasvry en die plaas is besonder netjies dog ru genoeg dat mens die natuurskoon kan geniet. Dit is fantastiese waarde vir geld en ons sal dit beslis aanbeveel.

Peaceful, blissful, carefree!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Baobab Tent Camp! The area is picturesque and the tranquility is a welcome change from the hustle and bustle of the city. It is ideally located for exploring the south of Limpopo and the north of Mpumalanga - with easy access to the Kruger National Park and the Blyde River Gate. The owners are hospitable and the farm is particularly neat yet rough enough that you can enjoy the natural beauty. It is fantastic value for money and we would definitely recommend it.

Salige Laeveldwegbreek.

Beste manier om die Laeveld te beleef! Die uitsig op die berge is pragtig en baie nader as wat die foto's uitbeeld. Linne en handoeke in uitstekende kondisie en eenheid baie netjies. Ons het veral 'n paar klein goedjies waardeer wat hierdie selfsorg eenheid verskaf het wat ander nie doen nie soos insekdoder, lugverfrisser by die toilet en 'n kraan met tuinslang by die braaiplek om kole nat te spuit toe die wind laatnag opgesteek het. Lekker naby aan Hoedspruit vir inkopies, maar ver genoeg om die rustigheid van die natuur te beleef. Kon selfs seekoeie hoor een aand in die nabye Blyderivier! Sou net voorstel dat die eienaar dalk 'n gas plaat/stofie verskaf vir die gemeenskaplike kombuis indien gaste water wil kook of iets gaarmaak tydens beurtkrag.

Blissful Lowveld getaway.

Best way to experience the Lowveld! The view of the mountains is beautiful and much closer than the photos depict. Linen and towels in excellent condition and unit very tidy. We especially appreciated a few little things that this self-catering unit provided that others don't such as insecticide, air freshener by the toilet and a faucet with a garden hose by the barbecue area to wet coals when the wind picked up late at night. Close to Hoedspruit for shopping, but far enough to experience the tranquility of nature. Could even hear manatees one night in the nearby Blyde River! Would only suggest that the owner maybe provide a gas plate/stove for the common kitchen if guests want to boil water or cook something during load shedding.

Was heerlik lekker, maar swembad baie baie vuil, gras is lank en kort graaf vir skoonmaak van braaiplek.

Swembad kort dringend aandag, braaiplek moet daagliks skoongemaak word en gras tussen tente moet gesny word.

Was very nice, but swimming pool very very dirty, grass is long and short shovel for cleaning braai place.

Skoon, netjiese verblyfgeriewe in 'n baie rustige omgewing.

Presies die regte keuse om ons kort wegbreek mee te begin het! Ryk voëllewe en rustige omgewing langs 'n lekker kampvuur met gasheer se pap en sheba uit boonste rakke. Die feit dat Baobab buite die dorp geleë is was vir ons 'n bonus, heerlik privaat en in die natuur. Voel sommer of jy onmiddelik met vakansie is! Kan beslis die fasiliteit aanbeveel.

Clean, neat accommodation facilities in a very peaceful environment.

Exactly the right choice to start our short break with! Rich birdlife and peaceful surroundings next to a nice campfire with the host's top-shelf porridge and sheba. The fact that Baobab is located outside the town was a bonus for us, wonderfully private and in nature. Just feel like you're on vacation right away! Can definitely recommend the facility.

Uitstekend en beslis waarde vir geld.

Die geriewe is uitstekend en daar word aan die meeste vereistes soos breekware, kookware ens. voorsien. Sharon het uit haar pad gegaan om ons te help met warm water vir ons kleinseun tydens "loadshedding". Kan die verblyf met 'n geruste hart aanbeveel. Die voëllewe is uitstekend.

Rus en vrede in 'n skoon, netjiese plek.

Ons is vriendelik ontvang. Die tente is skoon en netjies en baie gerieflik. Maar dan is daar 'n gemeenskaplike kombuis met alle geriewe. Weereens die kombuisarea was silwerskoon. Die tente is so geleë dat dit baie privaat is. Dit is 'n ideale oornagplek op pad wildtuin toe en om die Hoedspruit-area te verken.

Rest and peace in a clean, tidy place.

We were kindly received. The tents are clean and tidy and very comfortable. But then there is a communal kitchen with all amenities. Again the kitchen area was spotless. The tents are situated in such a way that they are very private. It is an ideal stopover on the way to the wildlife park and to explore the Hoedspruit area.
