Verified reviewexcellent

Staying at Hornbill lodge is not merely a stay, it is an experience. It is beautifully located within Mabalingwe and the various animals that surround the lodge and come to visit certainly agree. This includes the elephants. The lodge is extremely well equipped with everything you need - the gas stove and kettle came in very handy during loadshedding and the emergency lights in the house as well as the magnito lights provided make evening loadshedding much easier. No need for guests to worry about these little things. The booking includes free game drives with Thabang - a most pleasant man - who goes out of his way to look for and spot animals. This is a highlight of every day. Jaco is a fantastic host and communicates with guests regularly to ensure loadshedding schedules are communicated in advance and that game drives are organized as per the time requests of guests, amongst other things. We will definitely go to Hornbill Lodge again - it is the best way to experience Mabalingwe and the Bushbeld for that matter.
