Tambotie tree-top cottage by

The perfect place to relax and get away from it all. Totally secluded and beautiful, our stay was in true bushveld fashion and we left well rested and sad to go. I will definitely recommend it!


Gnu Ranch by

Brake away always to short. Great place to sit back and relax. Very private location. Friendly reception from owners. Will not think twice to go back.


Room for improvement by

Clearly Gnu Ranch just changed ownership. There are many things that need to be improved. I am sure the new management is aware of it and working on it.


The game drive by

Just loved you get one with nature again and no one for kilometres. The Luxury tent camp was fantastic with its own spa bath. the camp can do with some fixing up like the canvas of the tent, varnish on the deck, secure the decking, maybe some white new bed linen and a solar light for electricity saving at the braai/kitchen area to see where to walk going to the tent. But, with this all it was top 5 weekends in my life. Was thinking to contact owner and find out about investment possibility.


Secluded and private by

If you are a nature lover, and need time to be alone and secluded from the rest of the world, then Gnu Range is the place to be. We have really enjoyed our stay over the Easter Weekend and will surely be back.


True Bushveld by

We stayed in the tree top tent. Nice experience being right in the middle of the bush... good get away from the busy life in the city and road to the ranch is good. Had some rain that didn't help keeping our food dry as the Kitchen tent roof is torn so water just flows in... Jacuzzi doesn't work... and on arrival, we had to struggle getting a bat out our tent. The hosts never even offered to assist as I made them aware of the bat. There were no dry wood after the rains which could be addressed. When the electricity went out the hosts promised to get back to us... still waiting... we were offered to have our place cleaned, just to get a message that there are no-one to clean... the bed can do with a new mattress as the bed is uncomfortable. So overall it is a very nice stay in the BUsh... on arrival all is clean and people are friendly. But allot can be learned from the hosts on the Service levels. ALWAYS have a plan "B" or even "C" when needed.


The view by

Enjoyed the weekend, will go back again.


The moon by
