We were able to stay here for six beautiful days! The accomodations, staff, managers, animals are fantastic! You really get the feel of what South Africa is all about. I can not say enough about the staff from Richard the manager of the property to Rosie who took care of every need to Margaret the chef every single thing she... More

Everything about Mount Camdeboo, the accommodation, the food, the scenery, the staff, the game drives and the general beauty is out of this world! We spent a weekend there with friends. Even though we had quite a bit of rain we where still able to go out on numerous drives. But the times spent at the lodge with the gentle... More

The Manor that we stayed in was very comfortable and the staff outstanding, friendly and willing to help at all time. The game viewing was out of this world. We saw many varied types on game including Buffalo,... More

Spent a totally spoiling week in the incredible Mount Camdeboo with my 3 young children and our friends who also have 3 young kids (ranging in age from 10 to 3 years old). I can honestly say every single one of us had the trip of a lifetime and memories that will stay with us forever. Where to start? The... More

We spent two nights at Mount Camdeboo in November 2011 (not 2012!). A luxurious hotel in the middle of great natural beauty and all the amazing animals, it was the best experience of our 3,5 week South African journey. Our guide/ranger was excellent and knew where to find all the animals (even though the cheetahs eluded us :)). The staff... More

We spent 3 days there in early February. The natural beauty was breathtaking. Les, our guide was so passionate about the animals and shared so much with us! He was truly a friend and not just a guide. Being able to stand within 10 yards of a cheetah - priceless. The pool, the massage, the food, the staff were all... More

Spent 8 wonderful days at this special place in the Karoos. The food was superbly prepared & the ambiance that it was served in couldn't have been better. The bedroom was wonderfully appointed and the bed sooo comfortable. Loved soaking in that huge tub after an exhilarating safari hunt. Les, the ranger, was knowledgeable and patient in explaining life in... More

For the second year in a row we travelled to Mount Camdeboo after Christmas and the experience was as special as before. It has a unique combination of tranquil isolation, great weather, the adventure of compelling game drives (this time we found the cheetah) mixed in with fine food, great service and sumptuous accommodation. It is a place where the... More

As my dad has already said this was my first visit...I truly hope it's not my last! What an amazing and beautiful place: the accommodation, the food, the rooibos, the grounds....and then there's the safari drives with Les - for which there aren't enough superlatives. It's a special kind of place to come to and I felt truly spoilt! I... More
