“Hitgeheim Garden Cottages : Excellence in a natural environment!”
Our stay at Hitgeheim Garden Cottages exceeded all our expectations! We had a wonderful time! The warm welcome, the comfort of our chalet, the stunning surroundings, the varied menus in the restaurant, the wine cellar, and little surprises, like having our car washed de last morning, made these few days unforgettable! We will gladly return for another stay!

“Great Setting, Some Areas Could Improve”
The lodge is truly in the middle of nowhere, which felt special. A very nice surprise was that they cleaned our car without us even asking. Our room had a small but private pool shared only with one neighboring unit, which was a great feature. The two safaris we booked (Addo and a private lodge) were very enjoyable, and Johan, our guide on the second one, was fantastic - he shared so much knowledge and really made the experience memorable.
