Great for children and nature lovers.
The forest path was fantastic for a walk or trail run. Lots of things for kids to do (swim, play).

Quiet, peaceful and lovely place to relax. Very friendly staff.
It was a welcome surprise to experience such a friendly, relaxed and pleasant atmosphere on our trip up north. From our arrival, where we were very kindly received, to our departure, the staff were always very helpful to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The restaurant that served our meal can compete with the best. Many thanks to everyone at Assegaaibosch Country Lodge.

Very beautiful there and everything was very neat.
We had a great time sitting and hanging out in the outdoor area by the pool while it wasn't so cold, it was very neat there and the door from the rooms to the pool area is a big plus and very nice. The dinner was very tasty and the service excellent and very friendly. We also slept great. Thank you very much.
