We really enjoyed Doringpoort, the rooms were spotless, the screens took care of keeping the creepy crawlies out! Colin was very attentive and helpful.

Thank you for a memorable weekend and wedding.

We were excited to see giraffes, kudu, warthog, zebras, impala, wildebeest, monkeys and other animals all around the village.

Marina, the manager of Doringpoort, was always there for us. The cleaning was every day, everything was very tidy and efficient. Thank you very much for such an unforgettable experience!

· The property exceeded our expectations 🙂 More

  We loved the responsive and personal attention from our hosts, and the lovely outside area with own braai (bbq), fire pit and a thatch lapa with a uniquely beautiful table.... read more It was enchanting to sit outside in the evenings and watch the bush babies eat the fruits of the nearby palm tree. The place is well appointed and comfortable, and the rooms lovely- although the loft room's conversion from an open patio is a little obvious and a bit open for my liking - although my young son loved having his own space up there with a mini bathroom and a daybed for reading and relaxing. As always, Marloth Park with its unspoiled bush setting was a joy and a balm for the soul, and the fact that the river is only a few minutes walk away is a real bonus. We enjoyed sunset strolls along the bank listening to the fish eagles' calls.
The roads are a little rough if you have a very low car, but we will stay at Doringpoort again when we have the chance to visit Marloth Park.

Liked · The location was good not to bumpy dirt Rd to get in.... read more Accommodation tent in Bush Camp was clean comfy and had everything we needed. The outside garden area was kept clean and tidy the plants were well cared for. The cooking area kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed. We saw lots of animals roaming around and there was very nice restraunts within 10 min drive. Owners and John were very helpful and booked excursions for us. It was a lovely place to stay.

Disliked · load shedding was a problem but this is South Africa wide nothing to do with the accommodation. it stopped the fans from working so it was very hot inside the tent. No wii fii connection at the tent bush camp.which was very inconvenient. We had to go up to the lodge are to be able to access the wii fi More
