Like paradise in Africa

A gravel road let us to a paradise of kindness, relaxing atmosphere and beautiful nature. The staff was exquisite. Nikki, Neal, Patrick and Bianca made us feel like a king and queen. From the moment we arrived they took care of our every need. Originally we booked only one night at Koedoeskop, but when we arrived, we changed our plans immediately so that we could stay two nights. The food is also really nice. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are all great and more than sufficient. You can taste the freshness of the meal. The rooms are really pretty and everything is super clean. The owners did a wonderful job choosing everything with eye for detail. You have everything you need in the room. Really nice pool too and a very cosy fire place. You can go into the nature reserve on your own or a member of the staff goes with you as a guide or does a game drive with you. It’s really beautiful. If you really want to get to know South Africa, this is the place to be for an amazing and one of a kind experience. It really is a paradise on earth where you can relax and enjoy nature. Special thanks to the staff to make us feel at home.

Wonderful stay, definitely worth another visit.

I loved everything, a home away from home.

The roadsigns leading up to the Reserve, and a better description of the location on the website would be helpful, we came from the Netherlands and the GPS in our rental didn't work correctly.

Money well spent

The fact that it was in the middle of nature away from the normal day to day rush. There was no phone reception and only one spot where you can connect to Wi-Fi which make it awesome it actually teaches people to speak to each other instead of sitting on the phone all day

A small little tuckshop would’ve been nice but no complaints

Ideal for overnight stay or short breakaway

The property is in a beautiful surrounding. The lodge has an outdoor swimming pool which was great for the hot days. the backup power and light is a good thing considering the current load shedding issues the country is facing. the supper was great and the sunsets amazing

There are a crazy amount of animal heads (trophies) in the main dining room, and although I personally don’t have an issue with this, some people might absolutely hate it making their stay unpleasant. Lunch was mediocre so I would stick to the suppers. The rooms are very nice but the one I stayed in had something (animal) in the roof…understandably this is not an easy fix as the roof is not easily accessible. i did however report it to the maintenance person.

Excellent hospitality and food. Scenic and quiet spot to forget everything and enjoy nature!

All delicious home cooked meals were more than ample, made with much love. The attention to detail and service was excellent. The staff were so kind. We ran into a bit of car trouble before getting there so it was such a relief when a mini rescue team was put into action to make sure of our safe arrival. We were very well looked after. Appreciated the quiet and wonderful nature walks. We will be back!

Due to various load shedding during the day, there was no internet at times nor cell phone reception. That being said, with the wondeful surroundings and nature at your door step you might aswell DISCONNECT in the true sense of the word and enjoy your stay to its fullest. Thats exactly what we did!

Breakfast was nice and service very good. Nicky, Neal and the team go out of their way to be helpful

We were looking for self catering near Addo. The lodge is 2,5 hours away from Addo. We booked self catering but 2 weeks before we were due to leave the owner messaged me to say they did not have a unit for us. He said for an extra R 450 per person we could include dinner but we needed to confirm two weeks in advance. The advert says they have restaurant and Bar. Not true. The meals are very nice and Nicky is a very good home cook. But R 450 per person is way out of proportion. We were welcome to use the main kitchen but that’s not the same as self catering. I will go back again because I loved it, but the advert on Bookings.com is false and misleading.

great accommodation, lovely location. let down by extortionist dinner pricing.

stunning location in the Eastern Cape Karoo. staff very friendly and accommodating

the price of the dinner is a complete joke. at R450 head for a home cooked chicken thigh and veggies is a complete rip off. the owner is out of touch with reality and he is charging European prices for a nice but mediocre meal. the owner needs to come down to earth and charge South African prices. just leaves a bad impression. even the manager was embarrassed at the cost.

Getaway in a hidden gem

The entire experience was superb. From the moment we entered the reserve to the moment that we left we felt pampered and well looked after. The reserve is peaceful and quiet and the staff added beautiful personal touches to the accommodation and meals. Already planning a trip back there.

Superb

Very charming lodge in the Karoo Beautiful outside area with boma, pool, playground and superbe surroundings We had an immense very well decorated and furnished (including fully equipped kitchen and toys for kids) cottage for ourselves Delicious breakfast prepared by Nikkie and Maria Relaxing and peaceful place with great staff Very good value for money apart maybe for dinner which was good but a bit overpriced

Due to recent rains, access roads to go to the lodge are a bit difficult but we could manage quite easily with our small SUV It also made the game drive a bit bumpy but still pleasant and Neal was a very good ranger

Paradise on earth! Very friendly, helpful and competent team. Perfectly renovated and decorated farm

Very warm welcome. The team surprised us by more service than we expected. The big farm is in all areas and room very stylish renovated. The contemporary art is well combined with traditionell elements. Excellent food. Impressive vine cellar. All public areas, rooms and swimming pool are very clean. The game drive was very successful. Giraffes, Antelopes and ostrich came in the morning near to fence of the farm.
