We enjoyed very much our stay at the White House Lodge. Suzann and her husband are amazing hosts! The meals were delicious and with generous portions. The room was cozy and clean. With a view on the valley, you cannot beat the scenery, especially at sunrise!

The owners very friendly and we spent sometime talking to them. Location is very good and is within a hour and a half to get to the Krugrer park gates. We olny had one night as we were in transit , but would have stayed longer if we had had the time. We will be staying again next year ( vacancies available )

Idealer Ausgangs oder noch besser Endpunkt für den Krüger Airpor ( ca 8 min Fahrt)
Condor bietet diesen als Zubringer zum Airport Johannesburg mit sehr geringen Aufpreis an!
Es gibt auch viele Tips wie man die Krüger Tour gestalten kann - insbesondere von einer deutschsprachigen Gastgeberin!
Frühstück war sehr lecker - wir kommen ganz bestimmt wieder !

Die Betreiber sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Wir bekamen Tipps und Anregungen für unsere Südafrika Rundreise. Wir werden zum Schluss der Reise wieder hier für 3 Nächte bleiben.
Es gibt keinen Grund zur Klage
Dieses Haus ist immer zu empfehlen.

Varit i Sydafrika nu i drygt två veckor och bott på olika ställe men det här var i särklass bäst, enda lilla minus var att man fick ta bilen till närmsta restaurang (5min) annars var allt riktigt bra rum,frukost, mm

Excellent stay.Very closed to the airport. We had an outstanding dinner at the lodge. The bread is homemade and just great. This facility is also great for a longer stay. Value for money is really good.
