Sean C-Aug 2023

Peaceful, tranquil stay.

Thank you Henry. A lovely, peaceful place after a long day on the road. Out of the hustle and bustle. I have to commend Henry for his hospitality and the extra mile he went.

Robin H-Feb 2023

Peaceful stopover.

Emtonjeni Country Lodge has a peaceful country atmosphere, even though it's situated just off the N1. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the swimming pool provides a welcome cool dip after a day on the road. Breakfast was delicious, with the best coffee we had all holiday!

Agatha B-Jan 2023

Overnight accommodation en route from Pretoria to Gansbaai.

We were kindly received by the owner who was always considerate. However, we were disappointed in our room. It is really old and needs attention. The toilet leaked and water pooled around it. There were no bath or shower mats either. The accommodation is a bit remote and the road there was very bad. However, the gardens were impressive and well maintained. A small table and chairs in front of the room will help.

Henri went out of his way to accommodate us.

Very comfortable place to stay.
