Baie oulike plek, skoon, netjies en jy voel veilig, veral met 18 leeus om jou.

Sal Cheetau Lodge definitief aanbeveel vir 'n rustige naweekwegbreek, goeie vriendelike diens en goeie ervaring om nader aan groot katte soos leeus, tiere en luiperds te kom en te sien. Die oggendete wat ons gehad het, was ook verseker die moeite werd, niks te fancy of te droog nie, was bitter lekker, sal verseker weer teruggaan.

Very cute place, clean, tidy and you feel safe, especially with 18 lions around you.

Would definitely recommend Cheetau Lodge for a peaceful weekend getaway, good friendly service and great experience to get up close and see big cats like lions, tigers and leopards. The breakfast we had was definitely worth it too, nothing too fancy or dry, very tasty, will definitely go back again.

Adrenaline rush.

Nothing like roaring lions that wake you in the early morning hours, just outside your window, to make you realize how majestically powerful these creatures are. You move between the cages and their roars echo off the mountain - awesome!

Baie dankie Nicole vir jou behulpsaamheid. Ongelooflike gasvryheid, mooiste ligging teen 'n pragtige berg. Die diere word baie goed versorg en ons kuier daar was 'n eens-in-'n-leeftyd ervaring. Beslis die moeite werd om te probeer.

Die leeus maak dit iets anders.

Die verblyf was uitstekend en die diens goed. Die enigste wat ek ondervind het is as jy klaar na die leeus gekyk en besoek het is daar nie veel meer om te doen nie, ek is nie 'n persoon wat daarvan hou om binnenshuis te wees nie en sal graag iets soos 'n staproete of selfs 'n bankie of twee wil sien om te gaan sit en die natuur en die leeus te sit en bewonder. Dankie weer eens vir 'n aangename naweek.

The lions make it something different.

The accommodation was excellent and the service good. The only thing I have experienced is when you have looked at and have visited the lions there is not much to do, I am not a person who likes to be indoors and would like to go for a walk or even a bench or two to sit on and admire the nature and the lions. Thanks again for a pleasant weekend.

Middag Dion,
Ek is bly jy het dit geniet by Cheetau Lodge. Daar is wel 'n staproete op die berg agter die huis. Dan is daar orals tussen die leeuhokke sitplekke. Ons het stompe gepak asook sandsteen blokke gesit om so na aan die natuur as moontlik te bly.

Not suitable for business

For a family trip it is worth it, but not for business guests. The reception was slow as well as the check-in procedure. There was confusion about my reservation as well as the number of guests. Breakfast was also slow in the mornings. The waitress served me on Sunday morning already chewing (mouth full of food).

Dit was half van 'n hartaanval om half drie in die oggend wakker te gebrul word, net om uit die vind jy word omring deur leeus, cheetahs en tiere. Dit was asemrowend en kamer was ook baie mooi .Ontbyt was heerlik met groot verskeidenheid om van te kies.

Gasvrye verwelkoming.

Moet sê 1 nag is ver te kort. Moet ten minste vir 'n volle naweek bly. Die feit dat die leeus so naby is voel dit asof jy in die natuur self is. Moet sê baie netjiese en aangename plekkie om te wees. Sal enige tyd weer gaan. Ek het reeds dit aanbeveel vir vriende en hulle het reeds plek bespreek, dit is hoe wonderlik die ervaring was vir ons.

Must say 1 night is far too short. Must stay for at least a full weekend. The fact that the lions are so close makes you feel like you are in nature itself.

Wonderlik, warm, hartlik en verwelkomend. Dit was soos om na 'n lang afwesigheid na jou ouerhuis terug te gaan.

Dit was alles wat ons van ‘n kort vakansie gedroom het. Die lodge is gerieflik naby Bethlehem, Clarence en Golden Gate geleë, maar stil genoeg vir heerlike rus. Op die koop toe is die omgewing asembenewend pragtig. Die lodge se personeel is wonderlik en gaan uit hulle pad om jou verblyf onvergeetlik te maak. Ons het die heerlikste ontbyte en etes by die restaurant geniet wat spog met 'n pragtige uitsig oor die dam en sy diere. Cheetau Lodge se diere is in tip-top en puik kondisie en mens kan duidelik sien dat die diere die eienaars se prioriteit en trots is. Hulle is diereliefhebbers by uitstek. Selfs ons reisende kat, Walter, was warm en vriendelik ontvang. Ons sal beslis weer soontoe gaan.

Wonderful, warm, warm and welcoming. It was like going back to your parent's house after a long absence.

It was everything we dreamed of a short holiday. The lodge is conveniently located near Bethlehem, Clarence and Golden Gate, but quiet enough for a great rest. On top of that, the surroundings are breathtakingly beautiful. The lodge's staff are wonderful and go out of their way to make your stay memorable. We enjoyed the most delicious breakfasts and meals at the restaurant which boasts a beautiful view of the pond and its animals. Cheetau Lodge's animals are in tip-top and excellent condition and one can clearly see that the animals are the owners' priority and pride. They are animal lovers par excellence. Even our traveling cat, Walter, was warmly and kindly received. We will definitely go there again.

Baie aangenaam.

Ons het baie lekker gekuier. Die gasvrou was baie baie vriendelik en behulpsaam en laat jou vinnig tuis voel. Die kos was baie lekker en diens goed. Kamers baie mooi en goed toegerus.

Fantasties! Gasvry, skoon en netjies.

Die kos is uit die boonste rakke. Die verblyf is gemaklik, skoon en netjies. Die personeel en eienaar is vriendelik en niks is te veel moeite nie. Sal dit hoogs aanbeveel!

Langnaweek kuier.

Cheetau is verfrissend anders met die groot katte wat sommer op jou voorstoep bly. Die verblyf was baie ruim veral met 2 klein kindertjies, maar dit kort 'n bietjie opknap werk. Die ontbyt was baie goed en is bedien as 'n buffet in die restaurant. Die lodge is ook 'n gerieflike afstand vanaf Clarens en Golden Gate vir daguitstappies.

Long weekend visit.

Cheetau is refreshingly different with the big cats that live right on your doorstep. The accommodation was very spacious especially with 2 small children, but it needs a bit of renovation work. The breakfast was very good and was served as a buffet in the restaurant. The lodge is also a convenient distance from Clarens and Golden Gate for day trips.

Ongelooflike ervaring en pragtige blyplek in die natuur tussen die leeus.

Ons verblyf by Cheetau Lodge was 'n ongelooflike ervaring. Ons almal insluitend my 5 jarige dogtertjie het die natuur en die klein leeu welpies baie geniet asook die eende en duikers en skilpaaie rondom die dam. Het nie besef ons bly letterlik tussen die leeus nie, geklink of hulle voor ons deur brul! Die personeel is baie vriendelik en die restaurant se kos was heerlik! Beveel hierdie verblyf vir enige een aan.

Incredible experience and beautiful place to stay in nature among the lions.

Our stay at Cheetau Lodge was an incredible experience. All of us including my 5 year old daughter really enjoyed the nature and the little lion cubs as well as the ducks and divers and turtles around the pond. Didn't realize we were literally living among the lions, sounded like they were roaring in front of us! The staff is very friendly and the restaurant's food was delicious! Recommend this stay to any one.

Verblyf in groot gemaklike, netjiese huis met restaurant indien benodig.

Dit was 'n ongelooflike ervaring. Uiters gemaklike en netjiese verblyf, die restaurant was puik, lekkerste etes wat ons die hele vakansie gehad het. Die verblyf met die leeus, tiere en welpies letterlik rondom ons, was onvergeetlik! Hoogs aan te beveel, ongelooflike mooi natuurskoon!

Accommodation in large comfortable, neat house with restaurant if required.

It was an incredible experience. Extremely comfortable and tidy accommodation, the restaurant was great, best meals we had the whole holiday. The stay with the lions, tigers and cubs literally around us was unforgettable! Highly recommended, incredibly beautiful scenery!
