Boschrand Lodge

Baie lekker.

Baie lekker, mooi omgewing. Die hout en blitz, water en melk ingesluit was 'n nice touch.

'n Aanwins vir Winburg omgewing.

Verblyf was top klas. Die nuut geboude restaurant is goed geleë en bied goeie waarde vir geld. Baie vriendelike en kwaliteit diens.

Stunning bush getaway.

Stunning spot. However, the 'air conditioning' is not as advertised. Had we not taken our portable fan, it would have been impossible to sleep. Winter should be perfect though, and we loved game viewing from our stoep.

Ons doen weer daar aan!

Baie lekker gebly, pragtige omgewing met wild wat rustig rondloop. Ontbyt was heerlik en spesiale moeite gedoen omdat ek baie allergië het! Baie dankie!

Relaxing and amazing beautiful nature.

It was relaxing, beautiful place to be at. The land and wild animals are amazing. Incredible view we had.

Lovely accommodation surrounded by African bush.

The accommodation in the BnB chalet was beautiful, large and airy with a lovely view over the hills. Our hosts were helpful and attentive, but overall we were very disappointed as we expected to find a lovely lodge with a swimming pool, restaurant, and lounge with a view of the river as advertised. We found out when we got there that it had burnt down last year.

Rustig, baie privaat, volledig toegerus, heerlike plek vir 'n aand of 'n week.

Lieflike skoon en netjiese plek, baie vriendelike mense. Pragtige uitsig op die wildsplaas en rivier. Baie privaat. Goed toegerus en sal dit vir seker aanbeveel vir sakereis of 'n week se ontspanning.

Pragtige, rustige oornagplek na 'n lang reis.

Ons verblyf was heerlik, ten spyte van die restaurant en geliefde dek wat in April afgebrand het. Soggens sing die voëls ons steeds wakker!

Pragtige wooneenhede. Dekor smaaklik. Kos smaaklik. Vinnige en vriendelike diens.

Groot verassing! Naby hoofweg. Geriewe uitstekend. Pragtige uitsig op wildsplaas en rivier!

Great place for a stop on route to Cape Town.

Really great self-catering facilities with a nice view of the river.

Great lodge, brilliant service and value for money! Will be back!

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at the lodge. From booking all the way through to check-out. The rooms were perfect and had everything we needed. We made use of the pop-up restaurant for dinner and had a super tasty meal with great service! We also ordered breakfast packs and these were ready on time and delicious.

Restful - a great surprise.

The venue was a great surprise after 12 hours on the road. The lodge has a wonderful view over a river flowing through the bush and is packed with all sorts of wild animals. We all enjoyed unwinding at the pool watching the fairly tame giraffe a few meters away.

Peaceful, relaxing and enjoyable.

We enjoyed our stay. Very friendly staff and the place is peaceful.

Baie aangenaam.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Die diens en kommunikasie was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. En die uitsig vanuit die kamer was ongelooflik mooi. Die kamers is groot, gerieflik en met toepaslike temas versier. Die enigste kwelpunt is die veiligheid van die toegangspad na die lodge, veral as reisigers laat aand daar moet aankom. Klein goedjies soos een of twee 'lightcovers' wat nie daar was nie het dalk aandag nodig, maar het nie weggeneem van die algehele ervaring nie. Ons sal ook dalk 'n ander stortkop verkies het.

Die moeite werd.

Wat 'n verrassing. Die eenheid was ruim en skoon met 'n wonderlike uitsig. Die gasheer was baie vriendelik. Moet sê dat dit een van die beste kospakkies was wat ons in die plek van die ontbyt gekry het.

Wonderful venue, wonderful hosts, wonderful view!

Dit was soos 'n huis, weg van ons eie huis!

Weereens lekker gebly.

Die kamer is lekker ruim en gerieflik en die mooi uitsig oor die veld is beslis 'n bonus. Ons was verlig dat ons die keuse gehad het om aandete en ontbyt in die kamer te kon geniet. Die diens was baie vriendelik.

Aangename verblyf.

Kamers was goed. Die diens was uitstekend. Die hoofontvangslokaal en restaurant van vroeër het afgebrand.

Very pleasant stay.

Welcoming staff. Despite the normal reception area having been lost in a fire, we were well-treated. A good dinner was served in the room. Good packed breakfast. Will stay there again.

Absolutely a stunning and luxury experience. A true hidden gem!

What an amazing experience. The unit is astonishing, the view wondrous, and the amenities, thoughtfulness, and service are all top-notch!

Heerlik rustig en beeldskoon. Ons hoef oor niks te bekommer, aandete en ontbyt is gereël, vuurmaak hout vir die kaggel lê en wag.

Ons stop gereeld by Boschrand. Ons bring ons hondjie saam en geniet 'n skemer kelkie op die stoep terwyl die son sak. Aandete by hul restaurant (of dan' room service as mens lui is) is altyd heerlik en hulle ontbyte ook. Diens is vriendelik en die natuur is beeldskoon.

Beautiful game farm with excellent accommodation.

The staff went out of their way to make our stay fantastic. We were upgraded for free, the self-catering cottage is spacious with all the extras, we braaied and did some fantastic game viewing off our private veranda. Lovely for families or couples.

Heerlike wegbreek.

Ons het die naweek terdeë geniet. Die eenheid waarin ons gebly het, was ruim en netjies en die kaggel het ons regdeur die naweek warm gehou. Die beddegoed was luuks en die elektriese komberse 'n bederf. Die diens was puik en flink. Volgende keer gaan ons in die somer om die houtdek en braai ten volle te geniet.

Awesome views from rooms.

Driving around the game farm was great, girrafes, many buck, wildebeest, and warthogs. The view from the room was awesome, just an open bush. Seeing so many stars at night was a delight. Our dog was welcome with minimal restrictions (on a leash whenever outside). The food was good considering the temporary arrangement for the kitchen. Previously the food was top-class and excellent. Paying a little extra was well worth it.

Die kuier by Boschrand Lodge was baie rustig, veral om oor die spruitjie uit te kyk vir diere.

Ongelukkig het Boschrand Lodge se restaurant onlangs afgebrand. Hulle voorsien nou net vanaf 'n beperkte menu. Ons was enigste gaste en hulle het ons na selfsorg opgegradeer, wat baie aangenaam was en ons kon lekker vuurtjie maak vir braaivleis tydens beurtkrag.

Baie lekker gebly.

Boschrand het 'n traumatiese tyd agter die rug met hul hooflodge wat 'n week gelede afgebrand het. Hul verblyfeenhede is gelukkig nie geaffekteer nie en was in 'n puik toestand. Hulle gasvryheid was eersteklas en ten spyte daarvan dat hul baie toerusting verloor het in die brand, steeds vir ons 'n lekker aandete voorberei en ook 'n heerlike ontbytpakkie gepak het. Ons sal hulle vir seker weer ondersteun wanneer ons in daardie area oornag. Kan hulle aanbeveel met vrymoedigheid!

Beautiful house and lovely views.

Lovely, modern house, and bathroom. Very, very comfortable beds. Great braai area with a stunning view. Received great service.

Lovely bushveld environment.

Dinner was good and reasonably priced.

Staff and management friendly and accommodating.

Facilities showed some neglect, the chalet was clean inside but the patio was not as well as the built-in braai, litter around the chalet and a geyser leak on top of the entrance. Towels are worn out. The manager is very friendly and helpful. The food was good value and tasty. We did cut our stay short by one night because we were not impressed overall. The setting and scenery are spectacular. Around one river bend lots of litter on the bank, mostly empty plastic bottles.

Rustig en pragtig.

Baie lekker as jy wil rus en afskakel. Heerlike kos en vriendelike personeel.

Wow!

Wat 'n mooi plek, en die diens is uitstekend! Sal graag weer wil besoek.

Rus en vrede.

Ongelooflike sonsondergange en duisende sterre. Ons het baie lekker gebly en geëet. Nie eens beurtkrag kon ons naweek bederf nie, aangesien die kragopwekker gesorg het dat ons heeltyd elektrisiteit gehad het. Baie dankie! Ons kom weer.

10 uit 10.

Ons het Boschrand gebruik as 'n oorslaapplek, maar gaan defnitief terug vir 'n langer kuier. Die lodge se diens was uitstekend, die restaurant is ook uit die boonste rakke (die 'sticky pork ribs' is van die beste), en ons het te lekker op die houtdek gekuier met sy ongelooflike uitsig oor die rivier. Die kamers is baie ruim met aircon vir die somer en 'n vuurherd vir die winter, groot gemaklike beddens, groot badkamer met 'n stort en 'n bad, en elkeen met sy eie houtdek en buitemeubels. Hoogs aan te bevele!

Totale ontspanning in die natuur na 'n uitputtende dag se reis.

'n Rustige, ontspanne oord 'n klipgooi vanaf die N1, maar ver genoeg om die geraas van die verkeer uit te sny, met uitsig op 'n vallei van pragtige ongerepte natuur.

Netjies, rustig en waarde vir geld.

Ons slaap gereeld by Boschrand en ons is altyd baie tevrede. Pragtige uitsig vanuit die ruim, netjiese wooneenhede. Dis rustig en veilig, die ontbyt is heerlik en die kliëntediens is puik! Ons sal in die toekoms weer daar oorbly.

Boschrand is ideaal vir 'n oornag verblyf op pad huis toe.

Ons het baie lekker geswem, wild gaan kyk, geëet, gekuier en geslaap. Die 6-slaap eenheid is perfek en spasieus toegerus en ons het baie gemaklik gebly. 'n Paar klein dingetjies van die eiendom kort bietjie werk, maar die eienaars is darem stadig maar seker besig om aandag te skenk daaraan.

Verras met die prag, sowaar 'n versteekte diamant.

Die oomblik wat ons deur die ontvangs area gestap het tot op die dek was ons ontmoet met die mees mooiste uitsig. Volop met diere wat die plaas geniet. Die diens was uitstekend, en ek sal sterk hulle spa ladies aanbeveel! Die kos was oortreflik, ons gunsteling was die hoender vlerkies en die grilled chicken. Aamazing! Ons sien uit na ons volgende besoek! Reeds aan 3 ander gesinne aanbeveel. Die plek is mooier as die fotos.

Ontspannend en aangenaam.

Diereverskeidenheid groot. Personeel puik! Covid 'skade' t.o.v. onderhoud wel sigbaar. Ons wens hulle net die beste toe, en sal graag weer daar bly. Die Kersdagmoeites en kos was heerlik! Baie dankie!

Wat 'n wonderlike plek!

Sal definitief volgende keer langer bly. Gasvry en beautiful. Kos was heerlik en bekostigbaar. Die dames wat hier werk, is fantasties.

Great.

Lovely spot to stopover and enjoy the game and the magical sunset and views.

Ons het dit baie geniet, baie dankie.

Dankie dit was aangenaam om daar oor te bly, het dit werklik baie geniet en waardeer.

Great escape and stop-over en route from Cape Town to KZN.

What a fabulous find. Boschrand Lodge is so conveniently situated close to the N1. It is the perfect stop-over (feels like part of the holiday) and provided a relaxing haven after the bustle of the N1 traffic. The BnB cottage deck gave us private space to enjoy a sundowner whilst enjoying the view. The room and bathroom are spacious with everything we needed. The meals at the restaurant were excellent. Warm and friendly staff. All around a fantastic experience. Highly recommended.

It was great, I enjoyed it.

We had a problem, it was only load-shedding that made us not happy, they didn't buy enough fuel for their generators.

Beautiful view, close to highway, friendly welcome.

Lovely walk with our dog on the lead seeing zebra, wildebeests and other wildlife, gorgeous view from the Renoster cottage and balcony as well as from the main lodge, only slight downside that one can hear traffic on highway during the night.

It was a short, pleasant stay.

Had difficulty in locating Boschrand Lodge from Google Maps. However we were given directions by a guesthouse in Winburg who only had good things to say about the lodge. When travelling from CT - I would book there again.

A short stay, but thoroughly enjoyable.

We arrived late, so unfortunately did not have the opportunity to have a good look around. Our room was very big and as a result, it was quite cool in mid winter temperatures. We did make use of the AC to warm it up and there were electric blankets on the bed. Our balcony gave a lovely view the following morning, but probably needs a bit of maintenance which I am sure the owners are planning, as well as our bath which had a small leak, and a loose tap, both of which we reported as many visitors don't bother to give feedback to management. The dinner arrangements were relaxed and the food was absolutely great with a broad menu to choose from. Staff were very polite, attentive and responsive. We felt very safe there, and had undercover parking. The lodge is a few kms of the N1 which is good because the traffic noise is a non-issue. We expect to make use of the lodge again in future if our travels take us to the area.

Baie mooi ligging.

Sal beslis aanbeveel. Lekker rustige kuier.

Boschrand Lodge is absolutely awesome!

I can’t say enough about our wonderful experience at Boschrand Lodge! Beautiful surroundings and a comfortable, elegant rondawel! The staff were wonderful and took very good care of us. Dinner next to a kaggel fire and breakfast overlooking the stunning landscape with lots of animals. Everything was top notch! Would highly recommend for an extraordinary stay.

Fantasties.

Aan Bouwer, Jacques en personeel wil ek uit my hart uit baie dankie sê vir 'n onvergeetlike naweek. Julle het uit julle pad uit gegaan om ons tuis te laat voel. Verblyf, etes en gasvryheid uit die boonste rakke.

Spesiaal.

Baie dankie vir die gasvryheid! Baie mooi uitsig.

This place is a hidden gem.

My husband and I enjoyed our anniversary hideout very much. Thanks to Shin, we were never short of anything. The friendliness of the staff, the service they provided and overall the experience was superb.

Rustig en het 'n baie mooi uitsig. Kamer is net wat 'n mense nodig het vir 'n oorslaap.

Baie lekker kos by die restaurant. Personeel is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. B&Bs is net wat 'n mens nodig het vir 'n aand of twee.

Beautiful, peaceful and breathtaking.

B&B chalet is extremely beautiful. Breathtaking views. Excellent customer service and lovely breakfast. Game drive was enjoyable. Will definitely come back again.

Fraai uitsig.

Baie onthaalfasiliteite, gawe ontvangsdames, aangename aandete en ontbyt beskikbaar, vuurherd in kamer, terrein klipperig, trap maar versigtig! Geniet die uitsig.

Mooi uitsig. Daar is alles wat nodig was. Lekker restaurant. Sal weer gaan.

Die WiFi se ligte pla in die nag. Ek stel voor dit word geskuif of bedek.

Fantasties.

Ruim. Mooi uitsigte/gebied. Lekker kos by Restaurant. Goeie waarde vir geld.

Simply lovely.

Next time will stay 2 nights to make use of the facilities.

Great.

Alles was net great, dankie.

Pragtige uitsig vanaf gerieflike akkommodasie.

Netjiese akkommodasie en baie vriendelike personeel.

Uitstekend - bo verwagting goed.

Die huisvesting en restaurant was uistekend, die ligging/ uistsig ongelooflik goed/ mooi, en die al die pesoneel en bestuur het ons so tuis laat voel en behoorlik op die hande gedra.

Fantastiese, verrassende ervaring waar jy dit nie sou verwag nie.

Ons ry al donkiejare deur Winburg - so vinnig moontlik. Toe stuit ons op Boschrand Lodge en was stomgeslaan van verbasing en gelag van verrukking. Wat 'n geweldige ervaring. So ontsettend mooi, die natuur, die diere, die uitsig, die huisies, die dienslewering ens. Ons het 'n heerlike ervaring met die mense wat daar werk gehad. Lanklaas (het ons al ooit) so 'n lekker stukkie vleis in die restourant geëet? Ons sal nie sommer weer verby Winburg ry nie.

Awesome.

The stay was so nice. Staff was excellent and everything was beyond expectation.

Awesome.

Everything, from petisioneer, service, friendliness etc. was great.

Relaxing overnight stay.

View from dining area lovely. Food good and value for money. TV did not work but it wasn’t an issue for us as we relaxed on our patio enjoying the view.

Amazing.

The game drive was amazing, the place is beautiful.

Fantastiese oorslaap op pad Kaap toe.

Ons het baie lekker gebly, die eenheid was skoon, goed ingerig en die uitsig van die balkon is ongelooflik mooi. Vriendelike personeel en kos is absoluut tops!

Onverwagte rustigheid, natuurskoon en besondere waarde vir geld.

Ons bespreking was vir die gewone verblyf om die lang tog vanaf die kus te onderbreek, maar ons was verbaas om pragtige natuurskoon, totale ontspanning en besonderse waarde vir geld te ontdek. Die ontbyt is vinniger bedien as in Johannesburg, bravo! Ons sal beslis weer kom kuier!

Vriendelik en gasvry.

Heerlike Lodge verblyf op die N1. Maklik om te bereik en gerieflike verblyf met goeie aand en oggend etes. Prys baie billik. Hier en daar kort dit bietjie onderhoud maar niks erg nie.

We have enjoyed our stay.

See stars.

Out in nature.

The apartment we had was huge with an amazing view. Nice to see animals from the balcony. The balcony itself was also large with a nice braai.

Convenient, reasonably priced, very good dinner.

The room was still being cleaned when we arrived at 3pm, there was a strong smell of woodsmoke, and the sewage pipes may need attending to; however, the room itself was spacious, the view more than compensated for our initial doubts, and the service we received from Bouer was exemplary.

Gerieflik in die bos.

Ligging is uitstekend, nie te ver van die N1. Pragtige uitsig oor die rivier, lekker stil. Die kamer was gerieflik en net wat ons nodig gehad het na 'n lang dag op die pad. Vriendelike ontvangs en diens. Sal beslis weer daar oorbly.

It was great.

We had to wait long hours to get in. We were standing at the gate with no help even when we called. Also, if you have no airtime you won't be able to get in because you need to call in. I really think they should look into new alternatives for the gate issue. It's a problem.

Baie lekker plek en heerlik gekuier.

Die mense doen moeite om jou te laat lekker kuier.

Onvergeetlik met beste diens.

Ons huis was skoon en netjies. So vriendelik ontvang. Heerlik gekuier. Mooiste uitsig van ons balkon. Beste diens. Sal enige tyd weer daar oorbly en sal enige iemand aanbeveel om daarheen te gaan. Baie dankie Boschrand.

Fantastiese diens, aangenaam verras gewees met waarde vir geld.

Dit is eintlik nie net 'n 1 aand verblyf nie, as jy eers daar is wil jy nog langer bly en daar is baie om die familie besig te hou. Baie goeie en aangename diens. Sal dit vir enige aanbeveel, min plekke wat nog so diens lewer.

Gerieflik en goed geleë vir 'n oornagstop op pad Kaap toe.

Baie gerieflike en ruim kamer met 'n mooi uitsig oor die reservaat en rivier. Lekker aandete geniet in die restaurant met weereens 'n baie mooi uitsig vanaf ons tafel oor die reservaat. Goeie waarde vir geld.

That was nice and beautiful trip that I ever had with my worker.

Just want to thank you for the warm and beautiful place with nice food, clean place even though I left before time because my child was sick. My worker was satisfied about your service, you are the best. It's just unfortunate the weather didn't allow us to go around, but next time.

Pragtige natuurskoon.

Geboue kort opknappingswerk aan buitekant. Parkering by sommige eenhede onvoldoende. Dringend aandag. Daar moet voldoende infrastruktuur geskep word om stormwater by eenhede weg te lei.

It was the best very great place.

We had an awesome time and the place was very clean and the assistants and the management were extremely friendly. It's a great place.

Little gem just off the N1.

Great overnight accommodation, but worth it if you want to stay longer. Beautiful views from your chalet over the river and nature reserve. Lovely restaurant setting with a pool and Jacuzzi. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We had dinner at the restaurant and although the menu is very limited, the food was delicious.

Heerlike belewenis.

Alles was perfek en baie netjies. Die aandete en ontbyt was baie smaaklik.

Absoluut stunning plek en mense. Hulle kos is heerlik. Sal beslis weer gaan.

Mense en kos uit die boeke.
