Fantastisch verblijf midden in de natuur, erg veel vogels om het verblijf, prachtig! Erg vriendelijk personeel die je het gevoel geven dat je bijzonder welkom bent. Het diner, waar je op kan intekenen, is heerlijk. Geen negatieve dingen te melden.

We really enjoyed our two nights in the Old Drift Farm. We also had one evening dinner at the farm, which was very delicious. They have two lovely dogs. The Old Drift Farm is just an 15min drive to the Addo Elephant park and around 8 mins away there is a big Spar, if you need anything.

Schönes und sauberes Zimmer (wir hatten Standard Zimmer gebucht) und sehr schöne Anlage, sehr netter Empfang, reichhaltiges, gutes Frühstück, sehr gute Parkmöglichkeiten.
Das Dinner (beide Auswahlen) war für unsern Geschmack nicht so gut.

We stayed at one of the self catering units for a couple of days with our little daughter and really enjoyed it. The units had everything we needed, were very spacious and felt private. The property offers a playground, a pool and toys in the reception area, which is perfect for families. There are also breakfast and dinner options, which we didn’t use. One thing to keep in mind: You have to be okay with some small wild animals (ants, mice, bats). They didn’t bother us too much, but keep on mind, they live within and around the cottages.

Wir waren für 2 Nächte in der Lodge.Sehr gut ausgestattetes Guesthouse mit guter Lage für einen Besuch im Addo Nationalpark. Zimmer sehr sauber, Personal sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das angebotenen Dinner war hervorragend und empfehlenswert. Die Anfahrt von Port Elisabeth aus über die R335 führt durch Motherwell, ein großes Township am Rande der Stadt. Hier wird von der Anreise über diese Route abgeraten. Wir haben die R335 am Tage gewählt, um uns den Umweg zu sparen. Es war bis auf die lange Baustelle kein Problem.

The old drift is a beautiful place with lovely people which make the stay perfect. Good breakfast and a short travel to the Addo. We will come back.
