What a beautiful place. We had such a warm welcome from Henry who waited for us in the cold because we checked in a little late. Rooms we neat and tidy,food at breakfast was amazing and those homemade muffins were to die for I could've eaten 10. Such a lovely sight sitting on the stoop looking out on the orange fields...

We chose the accommodation because of the wonderful photos and were looking forward to the luxury accommodation described. There was no luxury, the complex has not been renovated for a long time, everything made a somewhat run-down impression. Transparent plastic tablecloths instead of beautiful tablecloths and candles, a swimming pool far too small for swimming and a whirlpool right next to the restaurant's dining tables. Far too expensive for that. But the worst thing was the disappointment...

Great location close to the Addo Park, nice and well-appointed chalet, excellent service, but unfortunately the ceiling void of our room was infested with bats that prevented us from getting sleep for the two nights that we were there. We raised it with the staff who confirmed that it was a known issue, which raises serious questions.

We spend two nights at the Dung Beetle Guest Farm. It is situated conveniently just outside the main gate to the Addo National Park. The cottages are spacious and there were plenty of things to keep us warm. The food was genuine home cooking, very tasty. Donald our guide into the park was excellent. We will certainly stay there again.
