What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.

Just spent a whole week with my brother and a friend there. absolutely fabulous. Sinah cooks the best dinners and a new chef Francis just started. All very good. Venison was michelin star quality... game viewing was excellent. We only lacked the buffalo for the big 5. Waterhole will do the rest in combination with the Spa. Dominique has strong hands :)

I had a great couple of days at the lodge. i was on my own and John and Dominique (the mangers) could not have been more gracious and welcoming--i felt at home immediately. the lodge was recently renovated and is lovely--very stylish design but still incredibly warm and comfortable. And the food and wine couldn't be beat. I've been on quite a few safaris and John is definitely in the top tier of rangers --very knowledgable but with a funny, engaging manner. I would highly recommend a stay there!
