- Everything we could have wanted and more - 30 June 2008
We could not have asked for more. From the time that we arrived at the lodge we were able to relax and unwind without a care in the world. Our every need was attended to without hesitation. The food was fantastic, the accommodation incredibly comfortable and inviting and the staff were the absolute cherry on top. We would not hesitate to recommend the bushmen/san lodge to any of our friends or family. It is well worth a visit.

The food, prepared by chef Hendrik and the other staff, was always tasty, with variety and interesting dishes. Our accommodation was very comfortable, neat and child friendly. We came back rested and relaxed feeling as if we took a long holiday. We have been telling all ... more
