An absolutely incredible experience in every aspect!! The owner Martin met us at the gate and whisked us away to one of the most well decorated private villas with such incredible detail and a real home away from home feel. Indoor fireplaces ready to be lit, gorgeous in-room tubs and outdoor garden showers! The meals were exquisitely prepared by Marian... More

The Feathered Nest is situated conveniently for travellers from Gauteng. Be prepared to be pleasantly surprised at the lovely accommodation with the very quaint touches in each room, especially the outdoor shower. The food is superb! The hosts are wonderfully chatty, with lots of stories to share. The 'honour bar' is a stunning concept - the surroundings pleasant and comfortable.... More

The dishes served were not only well presented but very modern and cooked to perfection - delicious (There was no need to clear the plates for the dishwasher when we were done) The... More

We really enjoyed out time at The Feathered Nest, the beds are so comfy! It is quite a long way away from everywhere else so expect at least 45 minute drives where ever you go. Very nice owners, they are very welcoming-Marrion is an excellent cook too! More

Between the food, accommodations, the amazing outdoor bar, our hosts, and of the course Bar Dog, Nalla, and Tyson we enjoyed every... More

OK so the dirt road can be a bit of an adventure but that's all part of the place. It's secluded and definitely 'away from it all'. I visited with friends in February and we all loved it and plan to return same time next year. The animals are amazing, there was a baby warthog being hand reared as it's... More
