WHERE?
Only a 4.5 hours drive from Joburg, Raptor's Lodge, Hoedspruit is easily accessed in the heart of the Bushveld.
An ideal Lowveld base from which to explore the rich diversities of the Limpopo Province, you will find the Greater Kruger National Park, the Blyde River Canyon, Moholoholo Wildlife Rehabilitation Center and Kapama Elephant-back safaris and more just around the corner. Eastgate Airport, with two daily flights to and from Joburg, is only 15 minutes away.

Very good welcome from Kim. Everything was explained . Unit was better than I expected. It had everything we needed except for one thing which was an axe for chopping the wood, yes I braai with wood. Otherwise we did not miss a thing. The big tick for me was the outdoor showers. Off the main bedroom as well. The entertainment area was perfect for the braai and eating outside. The TV was not used at all. Very private and the stillness was a bonus. The closeness to the shops we could walk and to some eating places BUT without comprise the bush feeling. Just a perfect two night stay to explore Hoedspruit before going to the reserve. Will stay there again.

We (Mankgagane Social Club) had a wonderful bush experience at Raptors Lodge. The facilities: bedding, outside showers, DSTV channels, kept our kids entertained whilst adults were preparing for meals (opted for self catering). The sad part is that we only stayed for 1 night due to the late booking.

I was shocked. Did not believe it as I have never won anything before. I booked on Sleeping Out due to the very competitive pricing and ease of booking with the follow ups. So this is a bonus for me to book again for a bonus weekend somewhere else. Thank you so much
