Bushveld Bivouac Private Camp

Sehr schöner Platz 3km von der Hauptstrasse weg, so dass man die grossen Lastwagen noch diskret hört. Perfekter Ort für kleine Wanderungen, ein verlängertes Wochenende oder ein Stopover.

Beautiful and private. Your every need will be catered for. The staff are friendly and professional. Absolute bliss. We have already booked our return stay.

Very well appointed accommodation in beautiful location. Beautiful fire pit and pool area which is very comfortable. The food which we ordered was excellent as well and the staff were super helpful.

The tents in the trails camp were a long way from the cooking/relaxation area. At least 200m walk through the bush which was fine in the daylight but a little unnerving at night. This was not made clear when we booked.

Well maintained and interesting - good view. Food provided was excellent.

It was very very cold and spoilt the experience. Better when the summer arrives. The traffic noise in the distance spoilt the overall ambience.

Tranquil and quiet. The food was unbelievable being delivered daily in the baskets. There was more than we could consume and it was delicious.

Everything

Nothing

Private and intimate

It doesn’t have heaters and it gets cold as much as they have a fan for the summer. They should at least consider a fan heather

The accommodation

Lights not working

The cottage was really lovely and exactly what we expected. The hikes are fun, and well-marked, and all around, the stay was so nice and relaxing.

The cottage is really beautiful and so well designed; however, it is SO close to the main road that it's really immersion-breaking. Nothing ruins stargazing or bird watching like the sound of lorries and cars going by.

What an awesome experience!! loved the openness, still lying on your bed with everything open, (i preferred that not closing up) and see the red color of the sun rising. The bests feeling ever! Friendly and very helpful staff............

Amazing place near Krueger, we have the Lillie tent and it was great, fully functional kitchen, fire place, little pool and amazing view, tent super clean, service outstanding

It was beautiful, completely remote, spacious and it was giving 💯 Bush staycation

Road to packing site was damaged and bushy

Wir hatten zwei verschiedene Unterkünfte. Auf Grund der Überflutung, wo auch dieses Reservat von betroffen war, konnten wir keinen Game Drive durchführen. Daraufhin haben wir ein Upgrade zu der wunderbaren Lodge Lilly bekommen. Jede einzelne Unterkunft hatte seinen Charme. In der ersten Nacht hatten wir früh morgens eine Gnu Herde vor der Tür. Der Ausblick von der Lilly Lodge war grandios.

Es gibt keine Beanstandung.

The place was serene and the tranquility was amazing

The fact that the toilet and bathroom is so far away from the bedroom, having to wake up at night and walk to the toilet in a rainy weather doesn’t make sense. I also hated the fact that their food is so expensive, yet tasteless

A vista é linda o quarto é ótimo

Comida tínhamos que cozinhar ,na tinha como esquenta a comida,tudo muito repetido todos os dias

Wir hatten die Freude, 3 Nächte in der Unterkunft Lillie zu übernachten. Der Aufenthalt hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. Von der Buchung über die erste Kontaktaufnahme, die Beantwortung all unserer Fragen im Vorfeld, die Übernahme der MTB-Buchung, bis hin zum unkomplizierten Checkout - alles super. Die Unterkunft selbst war grandios - sehr sauber und komfortabel, mit viel Platz und Privatsphäre und einer grandiosen Aussicht. Die 3 Nächte waren zu kurz, um alles in vollen Zügen zu genießen und auszukosten. Für den ersten Abend und Morgen hatten wir uns einen Snack-Korb und einen Frühstückskorb bestellt - sehr frisch und lecker. Den Rest der Zeit haben wir uns selbst verpflegt. Es fehlt an nichts. Kaltes Wasser, frische Milch für den Kaffe sowie ein kleiner Willkommensgruss waren im Kühlschrank - toll. Am besten hat uns die Möglichkeit gefallen, einfach zu Fuß loszulaufen oder auf‘s gemietete MTB zu steigen. Wir sind glaube ich alle Trails abgewandert - auch landschaftlich wunderschön, Tiersichtungen inklusive: Giraffen, Nyalas, Gnus, Impalas, Zebras, … und eine fantastische Vogelwelt. Für uns die perfekte Wahl. Wenn wir die Möglichkeit noch mal haben, kommen wir sehr gern wieder.

Da gab es nichts, für uns war alles perfekt.

It’s far away from all the noise from the city. Perfect for getting in touch with your inner self, cottages are not near to each other privacy is top notch the property is a total 10/10. Hands on staff with good communicating skills

Not having hot water but it wasn’t such a big deal because it was extremely hot so the outside shower did justice

The calm and quiet. The place was so peaceful

My stay was too short

It’s a beautiful place to rest

The entire staff, particularly the manager, were extremely rude. From the moment we arrived, it felt as though we were unwelcome. On our first day, it rained heavily with strong winds, lightning, and thunderstorms. The blinds of our tent were not closed, which caused the tent to flood. I immediately contacted the duty manager to report this. He told me to close them myself. I explained that we were afraid to go outside due to the severe weather conditions, as we were two women alone. After that, he did not respond. The following day, when the manager came to our tent, I informed him that the tent had flooded. He responded by saying that it was not his responsibility to close the tent. We also accidentally broke a small bowl and paid for it without hesitation. However, we were later accused of urinating inside the tent and deliberately leaving it smelling, which is completely false. The smell and damage were caused by rainwater flooding the tent, not by us. I could write an entire book about this experience. It is deeply disappointing because we booked this place with the intention of resting and starting the new year on a positive note. Instead, our stay has been turned into a nightmare over accusations that are completely untrue. I’m genuinely happy for those who had a good experience here, but I sincerely hope no one else is treated the way we were. No one pays this amount of money to be made to feel as though they don’t belong. My friend and I regularly book private bush lodges, but this experience was traumatising. Sadly, it has made us reconsider booking such accommodations again.

It gives you privacy and a bush experience. The staff was nice and very responsive

For the price, the game drive and breakfast should be complementary. The coffee, water and bath essentials (bath salts, shower get etc) were not refilled daily. A full sized (or decent sized) mirror would be a nice addition. The sleeping tent wasn’t properly tightened as a result the shattering sound of the tent was too loud during windy weather. The sheets had a foul smell on the first day

The peace and quiet

Nothing

Food was really dissapointing. Breakfast basket was good but the braai baskets are not great value for what you pay

Un séjour inoubliable ! Le lodge est superbe, avec une piscine et un espace commun offrant une vue incroyable sur la savane. Les tentes sont confortables, très bien équipées et impeccablement propres — tout est pensé pour qu’on s’y sente bien. Le personnel est adorable, toujours disponible pour nous faire découvrir les environs et répondre à toutes nos questions sur la faune et la flore. Un dépaysement total qui fait un bien fou dans nos vies toujours trop pressées. Nous avons adoré !

The room and view was beautiful. we loved and enjoyed our stay

the quietness of the place

the uniquness

It met the expectations Clean,peaceful and the contribution to Zero Carbon Emissions (Solar installation)

No allowing Irons/Hair Dryers The late arrival fee

The breakfast is prepared on site and brought up to the lodges in picnic baskets with a tasty choice of croissants, jams, fruit juice and cheeses. Fabulous way to start the day on your own personal veranda without the chores of preparing it yourself.

The property is very quiet, beautiful and well kept. Russell who welcomed us was such a treat, his smile is contagious! The privacy is perfect for couples looking for a romantic, quiet getaway. The walking trails are great. We did get a complimentary cake and that was delicious and so thoughtful!

We ordered the breakfast basket and it was extremely underwhelming and not worth the price. There is not enough lighting around the outdoor bathtub (if you like taking a bath in the evenings).

Absolutely loved everything about the property, it’s beautifully built and well kept. I was not a fan of camping, but we definitely enjoyed camping the Bushveld Bivouac style.😄 The host Saskia was awesome, always available to engage us, and went out of her way to ensure that our needs were met. Russel, the Duty Manager was exceptional. They also surprised us with a yummy cake for our wedding anniversary celebration. Thank you Bushveld Bivouac Crew for making our experience so enjoyable, we’ll definitely be back soon.

Driving there with a lower suspension car was not the smartest decision, considering it’s a camping area. An SUV is a must. Thanks to Russel for his assistance, we’ll definitely come back with a 4x4 next time😊

Everything.

Nothing. Everything was just as we saw it online.

Amazing views and weather

That’s it’s a self catering with no microwave and iron.

Paying fee for late check in. We had car issues and couldn’t be there on time. These things are unavoidable. Don’t understand why we must pay that much for checking in late, never ever seen this anywhere else.

It’s so private and beautiful, the set up is out of this world, we had the greatest time with my husband ❤️🥰

Their roads needs a bigger car, an SUV to be exact..We were driving a sport car,they tried though to put sand so that we can drive on their roads.

EVERYTHING!!! The staff was so friendly, I loved the privacy and the peacefulness.

Nothing at all.

Excellent views, comfortable bed and accommodation, super-friendly staff who are always willing to assist.

N/A

The bush accommodation offers a delightful experience with its scenic surroundings and high level of privacy, ensuring a peaceful retreat. The modern tent is beautifully designed, providing both comfort and style, while the available utensils meet basic cooking needs satisfactorily. Guests can enjoy the unique feature of an outdoor warm shower, adding a refreshing touch to the stay. Overall, the facilities are well-maintained and fulfill expectations.Not to forget the gentlemen who escorted us to the apartment on arrival, he made us feel at home keep it up

I had a few issues. The Limpopo heat was intense and the lack of air conditioning made it uncomfortable as the roof fan only circulated hot air. They should increase the solar system capacity to accommodate air conditioning, especially in hot seasons. Additionally, I had trouble getting my clothes ironed, which didn’t happen. Lastly, waiting up to 10 minutes at the gate raised safety concerns about potential hijacking.

Everything

Food

Peace and private

It’s far from a lot of things

peaceful and secluded

could still hear trucks from the main road the pool was extremely cold

The property was amazing, the fire pit and braining was great. It was really a good weekend away to breakaway from screens and enjoy the time outside ❤️

There was nothing not to like, besides in 38degree heat not having an aircon or portable fan was incredible unbearable, but the splash pool was great! Possibly look into the chlorine amount usage, there might be too much used in the pool.

The scenary, the service, everything!

Nothing.

It was Bushveld where I saw some of the animal without game drive. Again peace of mind .

What I didn't like it was the house on the pictures & the real house is not the same .

The location was accessable from the main road, the property was beautiful, clean and value of money. The view was beautiful and the staff was friendly.

The outside toilet, i think it was going to make sense to have a toilet in the main chalet to avoiding walking to the toilet at night

A real 5 star property. Amazing tranquility and beautiful surrounds. Accommodation well placed and private. Self catering or catered for opportunities. Baskets on offer are well worth booking. Brilliant and caring staff.

The scenery, the service was to die for. We were treated like royalty.

Nothing everything was perfect in fact it exceeded my expectations

A true sense of getting away from buzz of the city to truly connect with yourself and loved one .

The fact that I was charged for a late check-in still doesn't seem fair taking into consideration the distance traveled and one not being familiar with the place I suggest you do away with late check-in charges

Everything. The place is definitely heaven on earth

Nothing

Amazing peaceful stay

The water in the pool was too cold

The quietness

This place is so beautiful and a person escape from city life

-The property is in a great location about 30km away from the nearest town -Love how each unit is private. Every guest is situated far from the other. - there are animals on the farm (everything excluding big 5) - staff members are very friendly and attentive - Unit gets cleaned every day - Great glamping property (beautifully built) - must try if you love camping luxuriously -Beautiful views from unit This is a MUST try accomodation.
