From the moment you arrive, you are treated like royalty! The rooms are beautiful, all with an amazing outlook and the staff are all friendly, fun and are really something special. The game drives were brilliant with our ranger and tracker really going the extra mile to track down the animals each person wanted to see.
I really could go on for ages about the quality of service and overall experience but you actually have to visit to appreciate it! Well done everyone at Waterbuck Lodge! read less

Thornyush Game Lodge is set in a 1200 Ha Private Conservancy which shares an open fence with the Greater Kruger National Park. Stayed there for 2 nights recently and wished that the trip was much longer, as we couldn't get enough. Everything, from the room to the common facilities was impeccable. And the service was par excellence. My wife follows a Vegan, Gluten Free and Caffeine Free diet, which is a massive challenge to cater to. But the Chef at thornybush ensured that she never was short of food, be it at the meals or at the breaks during the game drives. The Chef would ensure that he sent special cookies and snacks for my wife on every game drive. The Guide (Kelvin), the Tracker (Ishmail) and our Butler (Glory) were amazing. Kelvin ensured we had the best sightings, and even lent us his Binoculars since we forgot to take ours to the trip. Cannot recommend Thornybush enough. read less
