Bordering Kruger National Park, this award-winning country-style lodge is situated in the small town of Malelane and is a great base from which to discover the Bushveld.

Wake up to the sounds of native birds. At River House Lodge you can watch hippos and crocodiles in their natural habitat while relaxing in the pool or sunbathing on the large thatched deck. Alternatively, you can marvel at views of the river and national park from the comfort of your private balcony.

Fabulous setting overlooking the Crocodile river providing viewing of game as they come down to the water. We saw a large group of hippo grazing on the bank before entering the water. Super friendly staff and management who cater to your every need. Klein Johan and Adri went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. Samuel in the kitchen is a treasure. The home-stead is packed with memorabalia with historical significance. We would definitely stay again.

    We traveled as a large group of family. We all loved everything about River Cottage Lodge, the rooms were clean, the location was perfect and amazing view to a river where you sit by and watch the sunset. Greg was a great host, always available and a good communicator from the time we booked to the time we were checking in. I have nothing to fault the lodge, I would definitely book there again
