    The breakfast is buffet very rich. The tent is nice and comfortable, and whole surrounding with the animals and the river running closely to the tent is quite magic

    The restaurant could be more clear on the size of the meals, besides, the prices on the restaurant and breakfast are not for common people.

    Amazing setting. Tents are spacious. Very private. Our 2nd visit to Old Mill Lodge in tent no 6 and 7. Always with friends and family. What an experience!

    Nice location, good facilities, lush green surroundings and nice pools. Breakfast was good, room was comfortable.

    The food in the restaurant was not great in our opinion.

    Close to the Congo Caves. Also has a lot to do on the property. From seeing ostriches to feeding bunnies.

    Nothing I didn’t like.

    The country setting and closeness to the Cango caves was a plus, so too was the proximity to Buffelsdrift lodge, where we had a lovely lunch over the dam. We did not get a chance to walk on the routes but, the views are lovely. The coffee was lovely. The setting was lovely.

    On both days the hot component of the breakfast meal was not warm, as there were no burners under the hot food (eggs, sausages and bacon) . Not sure it is worth the price. The acoustics in the room - you could hear neighbours moving furniture around, doors slamming.

    Beautiful open space, great if you like animals. There are not many things to do nearby, Cango Caves are interesting. Good breakfast, very helpful staff. We loved the lavender on our pillows and towels.

    It was pretty par from the city, but there was unlimited filtered water.

    Lots of things to do for the kids. Location is excellent. Our dog was welcome.

    Poor and illogical layout of the rooms. No plug near a mirror for blowdrying etc. Small TV. Curtains do not block out the light at night, so the room stays dimly lit. The restaurant gets a one star for rancid tasting beef patties on our burgers and cappuccinos that are cappuccinos, only by name and has very little resemblance to the real thing.

    We enjoyed our stay completely.

    We would have liked to have a microwave in the room. The sleeper couch wasn't very comfortable.

    Beautiful location. Loved the view and feel of the cabin on the lake. Great place for kids.

    The cabin felt a bit tired. A fair bit outside of the centre…but that is also post of its appeal.

    We had a great stay — the forest tent was very comfortable. We really enjoyed the farm garden and the animals, especially the rabbits. The restaurant was good.

    The breakfast could be better.

    The room had no coffee,only two teabags. Power was off for a very long time at arrival- very little back-up to support power outage. The staff brought some additional lights to relieve the dire situation without power. Camp style chairs on the porch would have been comfy. Good breakfast.
