63 guests' feedbackShort stay but it was very relaxing. The unit is very comfortable and clean. The caretaker was really hospitable and made us feel exceptionally comfortable. Will definitely go back.
Very nice stay! Will go again for sure. The convenience of Solar & Generator power and also the WiFi is a big plus point. I needed to use WiFi for work. Worked 100%.
It was our 2nd time at the lodge for children's sports. Next time we will just rest at the beautiful place! Service was great and really food for the soul.
Awesome birthday getaway with friends. Definitely recommend. Sedan cars are not recommended for self-drive on the farm but the road to the house is fine. Shout out to Patrick, he is friendly and helpful.
It was an amazing experience, we loved the privacy as well.
Great few days of rest and relaxation! Patrick and Ester made us feel so welcome, were helpful, and Patrick came every morning and evening to make sure everything was OK and if we needed anything. The house is fully equipped with everything that could possibly be needed. Neat and clean. A wonderful few days of rest and relaxation.
We really enjoyed our stay.
See stars.
Very well located. The house is very neat and equipped with all the basic necessities. Game often came to drink water. The porch is where we spent basically all of our time. Breathtaking views.
Exclusive forest! Everything you need: swimming pool, fully equipped kitchen, braai, boma, game.
Loved the fact that it is so private. It was just us there. The animals roaming around was the highlight. Facility has everything that one might need. We cooked, baked and braaied, even enjoyed a bit of a swim. Thanks to Patrick who waited for us at the gate even though we were late. He checked up on us every morning. He was always just a quick call or buzz away. Whole group really loved Patrick, such a sweet gentleman.
If you like peace and nature - it's heaven on earth at Mountain View Bush Lodge. Nothing but the sounds of nature and no one around you except those you brought with you! I wish I could give better marks than 10/10! Second visit and once again felt so welcome! There my soul and body can rest!
Beautiful view. House fully equipped. Pool is a huge bonus. Had a very friendly reception.
A very nice place. In the forest with everything one is used to, even WiFi. Nice big area for eating and hanging out and of course we spent a lot of time on the deck. From the deck we enjoyed the sunrises and the deck looks right on the waterhole. Patrick is so helpful. Out and out focused on making everything as convenient as possible. Patrick came to light the fires for us, the fireplace made for the perfect ambience. His wife took care of the cleaning services. The kitchen is equipped with everything and anything and is big enough that a few of us could prepare food together. There are 4 rooms, three of which are connected. The three en-suite rooms have sliding doors that open onto the deck. It's fantastic. The 4th room is upstairs and the stairs are small and quite stylish. The room is more private but does not have an en-suite. We went on a hiking trail. I would highly recommend it, the nature walk was fantastic.
My group really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful view from the lodge and the staff was very friendly and helpful.
Home away from home! Very clean and tidy, Patrick and his wife are incredibly nice. Everything you need and more. Beautiful surroundings and lots of wildlife seen with goats that just want to eat out of your hands! Will definitely recommend. It is stunning.
Had a great time at Mountain View Bush Lodge. Contacted Jan often with questions and was always answered kindly. Upon arrival we were received by Patrick and his wife (you won't find friendlier people). The rooms were well equipped and we were 8 adults with 4 children, although the place says they only cater for 8 people there were 2 double beds in 1 room and an extra cot in the other so it wasn't even necessary to get inflatable mattresses ready for the children. Everything is peaceful and it really is just a nice weekend in the woods.
Maybe just a net for the pool in the winter months.
The lodge is fully equipped, comfortable, spacious, all amenties you would need out in the bush. The watering hole right in front of the lodge to watch the buck and giraffe was amazing. It was tranquil and just lovely. Enjoyed having the fireplace indoors with it being winter. The rooms were warm and comfortable, kitchen was fully equipped. Having Netflix and WiFi for the kids was a bonus. Enjoyed our stay very much.
We had a wonderful stay. The lodge has everything one needs. Jan's team of people took a good look at us. The knives just need a good sharpening and there are a lot of ants so don't leave any food open and just take some cream with you.
Tired of the city life, Mountain View Bushlodge its a place to be.
Wonderful getaway with an indescribable view. Well equipped with everything that could be needed. The owners' daily care makes it possible to relax more.
We enjoyed it tremendously, and closed off from the city life. Didn't expect to find such nice facilities in the forest, it was a bonus.
I will come back again.
Very nice view. Neat, clean and comfortable. Very nice place to hang out on the large stoep that overlooks a busy swimming pool. Separate rooms for privacy. The farm is very beautiful and plenty of space for walking, cycling and driving. Couldn't have asked for better. Patrick, Esther and Jan are very helpful. We really enjoyed our time here and would recommend it to anyone.
Our stay at this place was really worth it. The place itself is located in a beautiful area, totally isolated farm. We were a group of 3 couples and it accomodated us perferctly. The reception and care we recieved from the hosts were incredible. Thank you for making our stay as great as it was. I will be definitely coming back to this location.
Awesome over! The silence, space, tranquility, privacy and service are second to none! Patrick and Esther are so friendly and helpful. It was a very special weekend. Will definitely come again!
We had a great relaxing stay. I would recommend Mountain view lodge to anyone.
We were pleasantly surprised with the fantastic view! The accommodation extremely neat and tidy. The kitchen and appliances was more than sufficient and catered for our every need. I have to make special mention of Patrick and his wife Esther. They were more than helpful, very friendly and couldn't do enough to make our stay special. Will definitely recommend the Mountain View Lodge wherever I go.
Had a wonderful stay. Beautiful scenery. Very relaxing. Very comfortable.
Showers need an update on the walls.
The lodge is the perfect getaway destination for any group. It has absolutely everything you need to just relax and hang out. Patrick and Esther are very friendly and helpful. We will go again for sure!
Very well equipped, you don't even realise you're "Off the Grid". The place is spacious and very well serviced. Patrick is a gem and a very polite person. He makes sure you have a nice bushveld fire every day for the meat.
Mountain View Bush lodge is the perfect place to relax and have peace and quiet! Had the most lovely time with family and will highly recommend this place.
The house is build on the top of a mountain so you have a 360 degree view. Amazing sunrises and sunsets. The bush is very dry so the waterhole in front of the house is well utilised. Saw the following animals at the waterhole klipspringer, kudu, wildebeest, warthogs, mongoose, baboons and giraffe. Patrick and Ester go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible.
See rating.
Patrick is very friendly and very helpful. Very nice and quiet place after our camping round trip through Botswana.
Patrick welcomed us and helped us with our luggage to out rooms. There was ample firewood for a peaceful evening. Enjoyed watching the animals at the watering hole in front of the lodge.
We were welcomed very kindly and had outstanding service from the staff. They were always available to help, from carrying our bags, lighting the fire every night and cleaning the house. Also to inform us about environment and all the animals that visited the water hole. The facilities are very clean and tidy with incredible views. The owner also went the extra mile and was always available by phone. We had a great time and relaxed and there is everything you need and more. Didn't lack anything. Would definitely recommend Mountain View Bush lodge for a weekend getaway.
The setting and views are spectacular, staff very helpful, bed and linen comfortable. The bush is a tree lovers dream, once they finish the road grading and driving is open again it will be even better. Need to clearly Sign Post the entrance gate.
We really enjoyed our stay, the rooms are very nice inside and out. The place itself is very well appointed, everything you think you will need is already there. It's a very nice place to be with family and relax and enjoy each other's time. It is nice in the forest, the view is really very beautiful.
We were welcomed very kindly, and had outstanding service. The facilities are very clean and tidy, and the location is fantastic, with incredible views. The workers' accommodation may have been close to the house, which dampens privacy a bit, but that is no reason not to visit the beautiful place.
See stars.
Will definitely go back, but this time for longer. Can't wait to experience it in the summer time.
If you want to enjoy the Bushveld tranquillity, Mountain View Bush Lodge is just the place! Patrick is a star and keeps providing wood for that unforgettable bushveld fire. I would suggest that more attention be paid to the rooms. The beds are not of high quality and the linen does not fit together. There is also no big mirror for the ladies.
Our family enjoyed the weekend a lot. It was very tranquil and quiet. The view is breathtaking. Patrick was very helpful and friendly. He checked up on us to see if everything is okay and if we needed something. Everything was clean and convenient. We can recommend Mountain View Bush Lodge and will definitely visit again.
Mountain View Bush Lodge is one of those places where you can rediscover yourself and the name is an accurate reflection of the experience. From the moment we made our booking on LekkeSlaap it was just one great pleasure, unbeatable, no-hassle service. When we arrived at Mountain View Bush Lodge the staff treated us to a warm welcome. Patrick, the manager on the farm and other staff were available at all times to assist us with anything. Jan, the owner, walked more than that extra mile to make sure we had a great time on the farm. Thanks so much Jan. Great quality appliances and accommodatio. Unbelievable view, not to mention the sunsets and sunrises. I recommend Mountain View Lodge Highly and you will see us soon. Thanks again, Jan, for everything.
What a breathtaking lodge. Clean, neat and words can't do justice to the view. The staff were helpful and friendly. Would definitely return to Mountain View Bush Lodge and recommend to anyone.
We will definitely go there again!
Best getaway we've had in a long time! Nature is breathtaking, the house is so spacious, beautifully furnished, clean and tidy. All luxuries are provided - from a large screen television to a telescope and of course the Wi-Fi for the children. All this while you look out over the most beautiful scenery that Limpopo has to offer. Patrick and Esther took care of everything and saw to it that our bags were carried in and out, fires were lit and the dishes were kept clean at all times. We felt incredibly spoiled. 10-out-10.
Good value, beautiful world. Road to the Lodge not suitable for low wheelbase vehicle.
Beautiful location, clean, modern facilities, peaceful. We had a nice weekend, facilities are good, staff is friendly and good directions from LekkeSlaap. Will definitely go again and can recommend it.
As a family we really enjoyed it. Beautiful, neat place. Awesome view! Great relaxation.
Patrick and Ester were the most friendliest hosts. The whole experience was exceptional as we were alone on the farm for 4 days. This was a work and pleasure trip and it worked out perfectly. Thank you.
Place was very nice and peaceful. We enjoyed it very much.
We arrived late, but were welcomed by a gracious Patrick and the vast, beautiful starry skies. Wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy another breathtaking sunset/sunrise. Beds were very comfy, accommodation and facilities so much more than we'd expected. Will definitely stay again.
These are the 2 most wonderful people I have ever met. They made so much effort for us. It felt like I was at home. If they are not there I don't know if it will be the same. We had a great time and stay. You immediately feel at home. Everything was clean and very tidy. Very calm and quiet.
It's a gem of a dream farm to walk over mountains and valleys, to look for the giraffes, zebras, kudus and all kinds of bugs and geckos! Ideal if you want to get away and love nature and watch the animals eat breakfast from your bed! Daphne is a very friendly, competent and caring hostess!
The rooms are beautiful and are scrubbed and cleaned every day. The bedding is of high quality. The host and hostess are lovely people who at all times try to make your stay comfortable, convenient and really enjoyable. Nothing is too much trouble and you are taken care of. The deck overlooking the farm is where you find yourself again and the large table makes you feel like you're hanging out around your grandmother's kitchen table again. I would definitely recommend Mountain View and can't wait to go back!
Hospitably and kindly received by Daphne who also arranged for our luggage to be delivered to our room. The room and bathroom were clean and tidy. The bedding and towels were clean and of good quality. The atmosphere and tranquility is just what we were looking for. The view from the deck was great and we really enjoyed the wildlife at the feeding place. Allan and Daphne went out of their way to make our stay as pleasant as possible. We look forward to relaxing there again.
I rode a motorcycle and was very approachable. Extremely peaceful accommodation with a beautiful view and atmosphere. Can recommend it. It is important to know that you have to provide for meals and drinks yourself.
Mountain View Bush Lodge is a must for those who want to relax and enjoy a break close to nature. We were received very kindly. One of the most beautiful views in the forest.
