This was an amazing stop on our honeymoon. We were a bit unlucky with the weather as it rained both days, but it was a great place to disconnect from everything and relax. The property is very nicely appointed with everything you need to stay in and cook, amazing wildlife around the river. We did a hike and saw the giraffe’s in the adjacent park which was a highlight of the trip.

The lady at Reception and the restaurant staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. When we arrived there was a function close to the room we had booked and they offered to book us into another one further from where the noise would be. Appreciated this gesture. My son was picky with his breakfast and even though it was an A'la carte they were so accomodating and allowed him to change and add extras at no extra charge. What a delightful stay!

Host CJ is friendly and gladly shares his vast knowledge of his property's fascinating history. The view of Sounds in Silence is gorgeous and the aura peaceful. The bedroom we stayed in was tastefully decorated, clean and comfortable. The private bathroom is spacious and spotless. My daughter and I loved our short stay, as did our spaniel.

Unbelievably stunning location, views across the unspoilt bush landscape from rooms and terraces are unbeatable. Great food, and wonderful dining room / terrace / lounge meant meals were a relaxed delight. Extremely welcoming and engaging staff and hosts. The two dawn game walks we did are now right up there in the highlights of my life.

WE chose meals inclusive and it was exceptional. I hurt my ankle on a day walk and they arranged transport for me to the lodge. We preferred to drive ourselves to the hospitaland back. As my fall happened late afternoon we arrived just before 21h00 back. The made sure we had our outstanding supper delivered to the room

The most beautiful view from the living area. Unpretentious lodging with everything you need for a couple of days' stay in the cottages. Enough wall plugs, conveniently placed. Very peaceful, yet close enough to everything in the area.

The estate was breathtaking when we drove in, I was in awe, so my expectations were high for the house (Mooi Lodge) we rented. The host Desi, did go out of her way to courier my glasses back to me in Pretoria which I do appreciate.

We were greeted by such friendly staff that welcomed us. Our cabin was beautiful. It was equipped with everything we needed with a gorgeous view. Each cabin are far apart so you get your privacy. The staff was ever ready in helping and assisting us. All in all I absolutely enjoyed my stay and I will definitely visit with my family again. Dargle Forest lodge is not just a stay away... It's a new family you inherit with your stay.
