    To be honest I can’t find anything I didn’t like … other than only having two days there … next time I will book for longer!!

    If you’re looking for tranquility in a Beautiful chalet right next to a river, this is the place for you. Accommodation was great and the staff very friendly and helpful. A big shout out to Linda and Johan and the team who were fab!!

    The only thing we would have liked was a washing machine. But it was not a train smash since there is an excellent laundromat in Velddrif (Koeks Laundry).

    Everything! When we got there, we could immediately feel the stress leave our bodies. Truly relaxing and the hosts were fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed the game drive and the boat trip. We will definitely be back to stay in the chalet with the hot tub. Thank you for everything Johan and Linda.

    Nothing we didn't like. Aa a development perhaps, a swimming pool would be great. We thought of swimming in the river but it was running a bit too fast for the kids. Amazing views though.

    We were a family group os 5 adults and 5 kids (ranging from 14-5 years old). They loved being able to roam free and safely in the large area around the chalets, and went off on adventures. For adults, we especially loved the amazing views of the river and the sunsets; the peace and quiet; the birds, and of course visiting the Quagga and other animals on the game drive. An easy journey from Cape Town, and we did a good day out to Langebaan area too. Excellent stay. Thank you all.

    We went on Easter, so at the very beginning, not that hot. Nonetheless, the thermometer reached 32 °C on Saturday . It was boiling hot, and the beautiful house but, with metal roof, and the lack of aircon, lead to a not pleasant experience. Avoid summer. Better go in winter and enjoy the chimney

    I enjoyed very much the quality of all the items in the unit. Very good quality. Very good views. Extremely nice owners. Everything so clean! And quite, peaceful. Amazing

The facility is excellent and you can find complete peace here. The view from the houses and the big open spaces around you makes you feel so free. Thank you Lermitage we had an absolute blast!

    The rooms are extremely hot due to the positioning of a transom window above the beds. Whoever designed this really does not know how hot the West Coast is in summer! The blinds do not fully close due to their design and, of course, the sun rises on the transom, waking you up early in the morning - great if you are an early bird, but not if you just want to relax in bed or laze around enjoying the views. I think it must be great in winter!

    Lovely place with excellent facilities - a real get-away-from-it-all. We really enjoyed our game drive and evening walks, as well as the views to the river. Very peaceful. The houses are spaced far enough apart that one had privacy.

All the staff were very helpful and welcoming with excellent communications throughout our stay . We loved the safari drive and were lucky enough to see the Buffalo.

    Lermitage Game Lodge is a place that we will definitely visit again. This time for a longer stay. The unit is beautiful with stunning views in all directions. A person cannot describe the peace and tranquility that we experienced. Close enough to Port Owen for any items that may have been forgotten, but far enough away so as not to be disturbed.
