We stayed for one night as we needed to travel into grahamstown for a work meeting. The host, Chris was very welcoming a

The property is close to Grahamstown yet far enough away to be out in the country. Easy access and shady parking. It was also nice to be able to walk in the reserve and a bonus to see giraffe, Nyala, zebra and impala.

A bit of road noise during the day.

Short and sweet. Very fulfilling. I will go back again if the opportunity arises.

The service was great. The manager is hands on and him and his staff went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable

There is no alternative to Eskom, so during loadshedding, we were in the dark for the duration of the loadshedding, and then when that happens, even Wi-Fi does not work

Martin and his team were absolutely incredible. From personalised meals to great conversations at the bar or front of the braai. Rooms were spacious and clean. The lodge was private enough to feel that we were in nature, but the location was conveniently close enough to Grahamstown to visit family whenever we wanted to.

extremely friendly host makes you feel special

Martin is a fantastic host, very informative and helpful and welcoming! We stayed for only one night, and he made fantastic dinner( burgers and butternut creamsoup and desert), and breakfast and showed us around, we could fed Whiskey the Zebra with apple. Room was clean and beds were really comfortable.

I liked everything, but if you’re not fond of stuffed animals, then this place is not for you😉 we didn’t do the game drive, because if felt a bit overpriced.

A wonderful, memorable stay. Thank you!

Martin, his son and the rest of the staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home and comfortable. The food was wonderful. We managed to see a lot of game and enjoyed the of bird life on the farm. We loved meeting Whiskey the tame Zebra.

A great lodge experience, easy to access with any vehicle, and great South African food

Martin called a few days ahead of our arrival, and offered us some dinner options (something we had not yet contemplated, considering the lodge is 12km from town). We opted for a barbeque, and it was the best decision we could have made! The tame zebra who arrives at breakfast time, hoping to bag an apple or 2, was a hit with the kids.

No complaints - just wish we had stayed longer

Very hospitable game farm experience.

We were warmly welcomed and immediately felt very welcome. Rooms are lovely in a beautiful old renovated house. Very hospitable game farm experience. Delicious potjie was prepared for our family and we were treated like very special guest. Drinks are readily available and being served. The kids enjoyed the walk to the hide out and we saw a few different buck, zebra and giraffe. Thank you, we had a fantastic stay!

A wonderful stay - thanks and see you soon!

A huge thank you to the Team at Temba for making our stay feel like being at home from home. Breakfast wasn't a meal, it was an event. So too dinners when taken. Martin is an inspired chef and host. The rooms are spacious and have DSTV on the flatscreen TVs. The bed, pillows etc very comfortable. 5/5

We eagerly anticipate being able to book again for next time.

The ease with which a large number of invited guests for breakfast were fed. Tanya made everyone very welcome and the breakfast was delicious. After the meal everyone enjoyed a casual ramble around the garden and an interaction with Whisky, the resident zebra.

The unfortunate power failure was not the fault of our hosts! The wind which blew fiercely some days was also not of their doing. We had zero complaints of any sort.

Very nice place, Priscilla was kind and helpful, Whisky the tame zebra very charming. Springbok and a Blesbok and Sable close to the fence at dinner and in the morning.

Maybe a bit pricy in the current situation. Next to a public tarred road, fortunately not too busy.

Amazing Temba!

Gorgeous setting! Duncan and Priscilla are wonderful hosts, have great customer service skills and made our stay very enjoyable. The best welcome was from Zoey the resident teacup ridgeback who is absolutely adorable and super friendly! The duiker came through the gate and grazed near our room in the morning. Petting Whiskey the tame zebra, what an experience!

Our stay was too short!
