The Area

The Dinokeng Game reserve is unique in the sense that it involves private landowners who have agreed to incorporate their land into the game reserve, supported by the government who has funded any infrastructure necessary in its creation. The former farmers benefit by developing tourism facilities on their respective holdings, which is why you can stay at anything from a farmstay to a lodge.

Verified reviewexcellent

A gem tucked away in the bush. Quiet, secluded and private. All the finishings are beautiful and everything you could possibly need in a self-catering kitchen. The wood-fired hot tub was amazing, and we enjoyed every second of our stay there. Hope to be back soon! A big thank you to Audrey, what a fabulous host!

So much value for money. The room was gorgeous and very much suited our glamping needs while still feeling like a part of the game reserve. Would definitely go back!
