Lovely place to relax and enjoy the awesome bush experience. Love this Lodge. It has become a evry year to visit this beautiful Lodge with great friends.
If you are looking to book please check out the website by scrolling over to where it says “web,” it will show you more recent information and photos because the lodge has recently been renovated.
We stayed here for an extended weekend and it was an Incredibly tranquil place to spend time with family and friends. Very comfortable and quiet, with amazing views of the Crocodile River. There is always something to see whether it's hippos bathing or the very active bird life. The house is well equipped for a large group with everything you could possibly need for a self-catering stay. The staff are lovely and make the stay even more comfortable. Oscar was our guide for the game drives and everyone loved him. A passionate and professional individual with great stories. Would definitely go back one day!
We had a really wonderful time at Buffalo Brooke and the staff were all excellent. Jacque was a phenomenal game ranger who was incredibly knowledgeable about the many different animals, plant species and bird life. He has an absolute love for the bush and the sightings. His enthusiasm is contagious and he brings humour to the day. The lodge itself was very well equipped in the kitchen and there were a number of books and games available for use too. We also thoroughly enjoyed playing ping pong and pool and having the open plan space to hang out together.
Luxury accommodation with magnificent views from panoramic windows over Kruger. Enabling access for safaris to view leopards, lions, buffalo, elephants, hippos, rhinos, zebra amongst other magnificent creatures. Highly recommended.
