Was nice but wont go back 😕 . What you see on the. Web site is not what you get.

The unit or flat we staid was right next to another flat we had no privacy felt like staying in a complex, the unit itself was nice and fully equipped, and clean, staff was really friendly, if only it was a free standing unit. The road you drive is also terrible.

Beautiful Location, Poor Hosting Experience

The lodge is set in a stunning location up in the mountains, very quiet with breathtaking views. I enjoyed having my morning coffee while watching the sunrise and reading a book.However several aspects of my stay were disappointing.

Road Access: The 2 km gravel road leading to the lodge from the main road was difficult to drive with a small car. This was not disclosed on the website nor communicated at booking. Welcome & Hosting: Simone, who handled my booking, sent a gentleman to welcome me. Unfortunately, he showed no hosting skills, he simply led me to the room without offering assistance with my bags. Room Condition: On arrival, I noticed a streak of mud on the tiles and a strong musty smell. When I raised this, the gentleman dismissed me and walked away. I recommend cleaning and opening windows before guests arrive and using a diffuser for a fresh scent. TV Placement: The TV was mounted far too high above the couch, making it uncomfortable to watch. TVs should be mounted at eye level when seated. Shower Facilities: On both nights, the hot water cut off mid-shower, forcing me to finish with cold water. When I asked if the geyser was timed, the host denied it, though the issue persisted. Heating: Given the lodge’s mountain location near a river, temperatures drop significantly at night and in the morning. Yet, there was no heater, electric blanket, or warm blankets. I was only provided with a small throw blanket. When I requested more, the gentleman remarked, “we are in summer,” and provided a small light blanket. For a lodge in Magoebaskloof, where evenings are cold even in summer, I strongly recommend adding proper heating options at minimum, adequate blankets, or ideally a fireplace to improve guest comfort. Cleanliness, hosting skills, and attention to detail also require serious improvement to match the beauty of the location.

The beds and bedding were so comfortable. And the view from our room was spectacular! Kitchen well equipped.

The rocky road needs some maintanance. But the cabin itself made up for the horrible road to get there
