We accidentally packed a few cockroaches because the room was covered in insects. We couldn’t wait to leave.

Geen 4 sterren waard. De verwarming op onze kamer werkte niet. Na 2x klagen kregen we een klein verwarmingselement, terwijl we in het restaurant zaten. Ze verwarmden ondertussen de kamer niet voor. Na het restaurant konden we dus eindelijk onze kamer opwarmen.

The lodge is nice and neat, but that's where it stops. The staff was rude and didn't respect privacy too much. We also had to wait 3 hours for our room key. They have a very poorly maintained hiking trail that's also the 4x4 trail which means hiker's have to share the trail with the 4x4 vehicles. They state that it's a working ostrich farm but I'm disgusted and dissapointed with the living conditions of their birds especially the pair that lives next to the hiking trails entrance. The live a very small camp with no shade, food or water.

Die ganze Anlage ist sehr hochwertig und weitläufig. Das Appartement war geschmackvoll und zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Die Pools, die Tiere und das Restaurant auf dem Gelände haben uns sehr gut gefallen. Das Frühstücksbuffet war sehr lecker und vielfältig. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!

Voor ons was dit een heel bijzondere, maar fantastische ervaring omdat we verbleven in luxe tenten. Het is een mooie accommodatie met verschillende zwembaden, goeie uitvalsbasis voor Swartberg. Er is ook een prima restaurant op het complex.

Spent 2 nights at the Old Mill Nature Lodge - what a pleasant surprize! Very friendly staff and very neat room. The breakfast as well as evening meal was great! Most enjoyable break-away. Close to Cango Caves and other day trips.Thank-you Renier and team!

Have marked this 5 star, whilst it is not your luxury 5 star, the service received was excellent. Call out to George on reception and the ladies in the breakfast room. Accommodation was clean, surrounding tranquil and a nice touch having insect repellent in the room. Perfect stay for recharging batteries.

Working.Ostrich Farm glamping
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at old Mill. We were in one of the tents which have air conditioning, which was nice since it was a little warm and it was on the river driving by the other places I think we made the right choice.
Dinner was fantastic
My only complaint is they say it’s working ostrich farm so I was really looking forward to seeing and interacting with ostriches. They had four that you could feed mind you. They bite a little lol and 20 or so as you leave.
Besides that great place
