"What an amazing find!Beautiful setting, majestic views, gorgeous walks, friendly relaxed staff. We stayed in the Leopard Suites with our two little dogs and couldn't have hoped for a better break.Aloe and Ibis trails are both well worth doing, nice birds to spot and 4by4 trail was also fun.Don't forget to take a good book to read in the hammocks on the stoep of the cottages as the fire burns ... bliss."

"Komati Gorge Lodge is a wonderful place where you can relax and leave the busy city life behind. The animals are roaming about freely and you can do your own safari drive. I enjoyed the quad bikes a lot (probably because I was in control of the bike more than I was of the horse that I rode -Ceaser). The horse was such a character, I've never had a horse make me laugh that much... that is why my boyfriend and I have decided to go back in two weeks. For fishing and mountain biking this time. We may squeeze in some archery time as well."
