Chestnut is one of our favorite lodges, whenever we travel to Kruger or need to exhale from our busy lives, this is our go to place. We have so many warm and beautiful memories from out time there. The rooms are comfortable, the environment stunning and the staff are what really make it one of the best experiences. Warm and engaging. Once again we felt special and embraced at this beautiful lodge.
Beautiful Lodge, very peaceful and wonderful view if you enjoy scenery. The rooms are spacious and private as well. The breakfast is wonderful and staff are very friendly and helpful. I would definitely book at Chestnut again as the experience was good.
Our stay at Chestnut Country Lodge has been great. Their Staff is very friendly and make you feel home immediately. Especially John and his wife, who took care of the lodge during our stay, were extremely helpful with planning our trip through the panorama route. The rooms and garden are beautiful for relaxing and you can feel like in your own private summer house. The breakfast and dinner were great. The media in Germany is not always positive about South Africa, therefore we came with reservations. However it was completely the opposite and our expectations were well exceeded. We can only highly recommend to come to South Africa, especially now, since there are not so many tourists yet.
Hospitality splendidly fulfilled. Peaceful and the staff and owners are welcoming and make you feel home from home. Secured as well. Breakfast marvelous, fresh and tasty easy to book and easy access to the location.
I have been staying at Chestnut Country Lodge every time I visit Hazyview, which is about 15 years. I highly recommend Chestnut, it is a beautiful location, excellently run and always am sorry to leave. Their food is excellent . I usually go into Kruger for the day and if I go early they give an excellent packed breakfast. On other days if you want to just laze at the Lodge, it is very restful and has a beautiful swimming pool around which you can relax. Highly recommended.
Nice lodge in a pretty setting. Rooms well appointed and beds comfortable. Food excellent. The service was friendly and efficient. I would have no problem returning. The birdsong in the morning was memorable
We spent a night at Chestnut Country Lodge after a week in the Kruger Park and it was a great choice. Christine is a lively and professional host and added tremendously to our experience. We had asked for fish for dinner and were served suoerbly cooked local trout . Breakfast was excellent with a large choice and cooked to order. Our room was spacious and had all the necessary amebnities. A pity that we had to leave after only one night. We'd love to visit again. Thanks Christine for a lovely stay :)
Chestnut Country Lodge is an ideal location to explore the magnificent attractions of Mpumalanga. Close to the Kruger National Park, the scenic routes along the escarpment ridge, Sudwana Caves and the World Heritage Geotrail.
A suprise to find that they have no tv’s in any of the rooms. Only tv is in an open lounge. Supper is only one choice so if you don’ t eat what is on the menu you have to travel to town to buy supper. No aircon also which is also not common in the lowveld as it gets very hot during summer.
It was already our third stay and it will not be the last one. Everything was perfect, clean and comfortabe room, good service, wonderful dinner and the best breakfast we ever got in South Africa. Thank you, Christine, for making our stay unforgettable!
