"Beautiful lodge in a great settings with exceptional service levels"

"A true "safari" experience in the bush. Our every need was catered for in a professional and friendly manner. The food was exceptional too ! The warmth and hospitality of the staff was outstanding. Particularly our professional game guide Ryan. He went out of his way to make our encounters with the animals something to remember."

"This is a wonderful place to stay! It is a beautiful and pristinely clean room, An amazing pool to cool down in, delicious food recommendations and the awesome hosts/staffs! Total Positive Vibes at this stay! "

"Just outside town in old farmhouse dating back to 1774. Shared kitchen well stocked and also access to private patio with braai. Some game to be seen close by at rivers edge as you drive in. Small pool for cooling off."

"Recently stayed at Woodbury Lodge & honestly can’t recommend enough. The staff were exceptional - extremely accommodating & went above & beyond to make our trip memorable. Our expert rangers were fantastic (Nico & Donovan). Attentive, knowledgeable & personable which added to the overall experience. The lodge was well presented & always clean. The food…delicious & filling (even for someone with special dietary requirements) Let’s not forget the safari outings & bushwalk! Mind blowing! We saw all...

"Outstanding in every way. Service, staff, facilities, environment, world class dining, game drives, etc. Already planning our next stay."

"The room was amazing and the staff are super knowledgeable and friendly! We would stay here again! We were able to see all of the animals on our first game drive and that made the trip! Thank you again for making our vacation so memorable!"

"I fell in love with this funky guest house by the end of my 4-day stay. The owner has 6 cats who live in the courtyards and they will come visit with you throughout the day— this was literally the best part! The courtyards have fun statues/art all around and various braai spaces and a small pool. I will definitely be back!"

"From arrival to departure, the stay at Founders Lodge was superb. The Pod room has an amazing view over the Game Reserve (even from the shower!). Food is exceptional, and serving lunches and dinners from different locations within the Lodge/grounds was a nice touch. All staff are friendly, polite and good at what they do! The grounds are well maintained. The uninterrupted view of the waterhole allowed for lots of animal spotting. If you're thinking of going to an Eastern Cape Game Reserve,...

" Wonderful accommodation, lovely staff and a incredable view, just amazing! We‘ll definitely come back! Thank you for this unforgettable time"

"Very nice accommodation. "

"Very beautiful historic property with great views & location. On negative side -large airy village units only have warmish water not hot - village units outdoor showers had waist high weeds - supper menus are 5 course set menus that are repeated & are expensive for quality - restaurant staff lacking management & training - receptionists could do hostessing/oversight at meal times & spot checks on housekeeping/condition of units and gardens to support and train staff but do not - lack of comfy...

"Unique impressive camp with only three tents and very personal service. Long exciting game drives and yummy food. Craig was by far our favorite safari guide, but they’re all great. We were very well taken care of and are so grateful for the experience. "

"Wir waren leider sehr enttäuscht von der Lodge. Die Anfahrt ist mit einem normalen PKW eigentlich unzumutbar und bei vorherigem Regen nicht machbar! Der Gemeinschaftsbereich ist sehr schön, aber das war’s dann auch schon! Die Unterkünfte sind deutlich in die Jahre gekommen und bedürfen einer Modernisierung. Das Personal ist bemüht, aber nicht sehr geschult und wirkt teilweise unbeholfen. Das Abendessen (in Buffetform !) war wohlwollend betrachtet bestenfalls durchschnittlich, das Frühstück...
