Wonderful experience.
The service is excellent. The food was delicious. No effort was too much. I would definitely recommend the place. It is not far from the N1 and yet you have the tranquility of a farm. The room was changed so we didn't have to climb stairs. A fridge in the room would be a very nice addition.

After a day's driving it is an oasis to relax there. With the animals around you and delicious meals, we enjoyed it.

Lovely overnight stay, could also spend 2 days exploring farm and surroundings.
Our experience was very good from a beautiful historic house. Service was exceptionally good. There is no air conditioning in the room, which will certainly be needed in the middle of summer.

7 star experience.
Chargo Lodge offers a 7-star experience on a beautiful Karoo farm just off the N1 outside Colesberg. Excellent accommodation, carefully prepared and tasty dinner and breakfast. The owners themselves are involved in the guest house and are excellent hosts. Prior communication was very good and reception warm and sincere. I will definitely stay here again and again. Thank you very much Charles and Megan.

Not a boutique hotel and over priced.

Lot of potential but to charge the rate they do some attention to detail required.

Ek het meer verwag. Daar was nie 'n lugversorger of TV in my kamer nie. Ek het nie gebly vir ontbyt nie, maar die aandete was heerlik.

I expected more. There was no air conditioner or TV in my room. I didn't stay for breakfast, but the dinner was delicious.
I really expected more from a Boutique Game Lodge. The rooms are clean but sparse. I expected more for the price of R1350.

Friendly staff.
The staff is very friendly and hospitable. We really enjoyed the game drive. Dinner and breakfast were very nice. However, the bathrooms are very inconvenient, especially the bath needs attention. There are no bar fridges in the rooms nor air conditioning, which is to be recommended.

Karoo cordiality at its best!
Charles and Megan are simply wonderful hosts! The warmth and hospitality with which we were received at Chargo made us feel more like long lost family members, returning home after a long time, than the unknown travelers we actually were. In this beautiful place, rich in history, we indulged in hearty food prepared with so much care. We slept wonderfully in the silence of the Karoo and we gazed at the wildlife that is cared for and preserved here with obvious love. Chargo is a special place with special people.

Beautiful, well located place with excellent service!
We spent the night here on our way back from George to Gauteng. The farm, Vanwyksfontein, is well located - off the N1 just outside Colesberg, and a 15 minute drive to Gariep. The lodge is beautiful, with hardwood floors, antique furniture and a history that stretches back to the early 1800s. Hanrie and the staff were so friendly and helpful and served delicious food! It was a perfect way to end the year!
