Situated at the base of the wild Tsitsikamma Mountains, The Fernery overlooks an impressive 30-metre waterfall in the Sanddrift River gorge. The deck area boasts a cocktail bar and free WiFi is available throughout.

The spacious rooms and suites are individually decorated and filled with light. Some rooms have fireplaces and offer scenic views. The elegant bathrooms have floor heating and heated towel rails. This is a piece of paradise. The chalet is very comfortable and well equipped and maintained. The restaurant offers excellent food options. The breakfast is amazing. I recommend staying here at least for three nights.

A barbecue is available on site and both fishing and canoeing can be enjoyed within close proximity of the lodge. Sophia and Luc were incredible hosts. They’ve done a fantastic job with the family lodge we stayed at. Simple, modern decor with a gorgeous garden and easy access to the river. Couldn’t recommend more.

The rooms were cozy and comfortable, providing the perfect retreat after a day of exploring. We even got to see girafs and antelopes while having our morning coffe in the back yard. But the real highlight was the food! They oragized a barii for us, and tought of every detail so that we could taste the most tradicional dishes in the área. Every meal was a delicious treat. We can't wait to return and experience this again!

Situated in the Amakhala Game Reserve, Leeuwenbosch Shearers Lodge offers country-style accommodation and boasts an outdoor pool and terrace. Free WiFi is offered and free private parking is available on site.

Guests are able to arrange a late morning Day Safari directly with the property at an additional charge. Leeuwenbosch Shearers Lodge features extensive gardens with a chapel. The whole team were amazing and it felt like one big family- nothing was too much!! The rangers were very knowledgeable, and communicated expertly with one another to ensure you had the best chance of sightings. The reserve has grown significantly since my last visit 14years ago and remains as beautiful as I remembered. The rooms were super comfy, with huge beds and modernised bathrooms. The pool area was lovely, overlooking the reserve with frequent wildlife visitors, making for a great refreshing dip between game drives. The food was delicious! We couldn’t fault it and can’t wait to come back.

Providing river views, African Safari Lodge in Grahamstown provides accommodation, a garden, a shared lounge, a terrace and barbecue facilities. The lodge features both WiFi and private parking free of charge. The last 3,5km from the entrance gate to the lodge are pretty adventurous, but once you are there, you will enjoy stunning views of the dam and green hills. We enjoyed the tranquility - a perfect place, if you just want to relax. You can order food, which they bring to your place. But we decided for self catering, as the kitchen is fully equipped (from stove to microwave and fridge). WiFi was good and we loved the terrace for the views! Driving to the gate in the mornings we saw some antilopes, many warthogs and a herd of buffalos.

Port Elizabeth is 35 km from Charihandra Game Lodge, whereas Addo is 19.4 km away. Great forthcoming staff, helped us book/ plan activities. We had a tent room which was super cool and luxurious! Only one night of poor sleep due to lots of wind, which is to be expected in a tent

Located in Graaff-Reinet, Mount Camdeboo Private Game Reserve by NEWMARK provides free WiFi, and guests can enjoy an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and a shared lounge.

A buffet, continental or Full English/Irish breakfast is available at the property. The restaurant at the lodge serves African, American and South African cuisine. Absolutely everything. We were welcomed by such great people. Our house we stayed in was beautiful. The games drives were excellent, and never felt like a rush. Food was amazing. We didn't get to use the hot tub, unfortunately, but the view from the hot tub would have been incredible. We're sad that we only stayed 1 night. Highly recommend it.
