One night at Mafube just whets your appetite for more!. We stayed in the Rondavel on our last night in the area and were upset that we had to leave. Nestled in am amphitheater of sandstone cliffs, Mafube draws you in and lulls you into peace. We climbed up to viewpoint above the chalets and the the vistas are endless. The dinosaur tracks are amazing and the sight of nesting Black eagles soaring overhead was thrilling. Hosts Chris and Hillary are good company and really helpful. WE will definitely be back for longer. |

We stayed here for two nights on the last leg of our trip through South Africa. The four of us all agreed that this was by far our favorite place to stay during the trip. The grounds arei incredible- it's like having a national park to yourself. Despite the remoteness, the chalet had a wonderful contemporary ambiance and excellent facilities. Best of all though are the owners, Chris and Hillary, they make you feel incredibly welcome and are all around great people. We would love to come back to Mafube! |

We celebrated our first anniversary at Mafube in Jan. It was such a great experience. It was so peaceful and relaxing - the perfect getaway. We relaxed, went on some short hikes and went on a lazy tube ride down the Caledon River - stunning! Chalet was perfect - everything we needed was there. Ill be booking again very soon! |

When you travel in the Fouriesburg / Clarens area you think ' is a place where I can stay that will allow me to get close to those cliffs' .
We loved Mafube and enjoyed them when we relaxed on our comfortable verandah and also climbed up,around and over them to look far into Lesotho.
Thanks for our very comfortable accomodation, your efforts and must let you know that loved our weekend there in your very beautiful spot. |

Review by: Clifford and Leonie Gibbs, Pretoria (stayed: December 2011)
The Eatern Freestate is one of the most beautiful areas in South Africa. Mafube Mountain retreat is in an ideal spot, close enough to Fouriesburg for a quick visit to a shop and far enough that you can hardly see any lights, other than stars at night. Chris and Hillary are friendly and very helpfull hosts. We had a quiet but very pleasant New Years Eve in the lapa. The boys enjoyed the cayak and the hikes. Thank you for a most wonderful stay. We are looking forward to our next visit. |

Every time I go back to Mafube Lodge I am once again stunned by the beauty and serenity of the place. Whether it is identifying the many wild flowers in spring, taking in the breathtaking waterfalls from the mountainous ampitheatre around the lodge in summer or marvelling at the stark contrast between the mountains and surrounding country side in winter - there is no place that beats Mafube. Great walks, diverse bird life, very comfortable accomodation and friendly, hospitable hosts. Thank you Hillary and Chris. I am counting down the days until my next visit. |

Review by: Ross and Taryn Norton, Baynesfield (stayed: August 2011)
Thank you for an amazing holiday! Mafube is officially or family’s favourite holiday destination. A week of non-stop fun, with enough to do to make it relaxing for the parents! Family hikes, river swims, boating in the dam, fishing, rock collecting, slippery slide, dinosaur tracks, bushmen paintings, mud fights...What an adventure for the children – and when the children are happy, everyone is happy! Hillary and Chris, your knowledge and helpfulness were much appreciated and you definitely went the extra mile! Very gracious hosts indeed! Thanks again, we will be back! |
