Verified reviewexcellent

We had a lovely stay at Critchley Hackle. It was a very well equiped unit, it was comfortable, neat and clean. The view from the units over the dam is beautiful. I would definitetly go back if I pass through Dullstroom again.

Verified reviewexcellent

We stayed in a Lakeside cabin and had the good fortune to experience all four seasons in the three days that we stayed over the New Year's weekend. We can attest that neither the beauty of the lake nor the comfort of the cabin suffered from the weather. The cabins are comfortably appointed, from the good quality linen and bed to the TV blanket for those cold evenings. We appreciated the espresso machine with coffee pods, the sparkling wine and the chess set awaiting us. All in all, it felt like home, and everything just worked! We will be back.
