Independent hotels in Grootvadersbosch Nature Reserve, Western Cape

"The game drive guides are amazing. We had JayLee who has so much knowledge and is determined to find the Big 5. He never disappointed. We stayed in Tilney Manor but would have preferred Gondwana but we found out there was a problem with our booking and were moved. The reserve is vast but has so much wild life."

"Great stay and beautiful property. Like most places in SA theres a water shortage so I couldn't enjoy a night bath but really enjoyed our stay... "
