Excellent location for a trip to Addo. The staff is super friendly and you can feel that they are doing everything with passion. Making guests feel at home is their main goal :-) The trip to Addo with Mike was amazing!

This is an authentic Rustic bush camp : the tents were spacious and very clean. Comfy beds. Owners and staff very interactive with all of the guests and very welcoming. Their host Dimitri was such a pleasure to deal with and really went out of his way to be of assistance. Game drive into Addo Wildlife Park was great : Ranger Brighton was very informative. We spent 2 lovely days at Kudu Ridge.

The place is a true gem, we absolutley loved it. Had a fantastic time. Our toddler loved running around, entering the swimming pool and even got lucky to meet Lucy the giraffe. The food was amazing. My husband has celiac and he had so much great options to eat. We had a problem with the car on the way and the staff were super friendly, helpful and available for us. So happy we had the oppurtunity to stay in this great place. Thank you!

This was a last minute booking as we were not happy with our previous accommodation. We arrived 30 minutes later and everything was ready for us. The staff was extremely nice and helpful. They even did our laundry even though we only stayed one night. Our 7 year old son really enjoyed the Wildlife Centre (mini zoo) and petting the rabbits. The entrance fee was included in the price of the accommodation. The view from the restaurant is really beautiful and relaxing.

Such a beautiful idyll - perfectly located for a day at the national park and with a lovely restaurant onsite. The personnel were super welcoming and the room was immaculately clean. I really loved the coffee machine in the lounge to grab a nice coffee to enjoy on the little patio. Pool was a lovely relaxing place to while away some hours. The whole plot was incredibly calm and serene - would highly recommend. PS - note that the ratings outside of WiFi are all 10/10! We had no issues with WiFi while we were there, but equally would not expect perfect WiFi in a rurally located spread out property - seems unfair it brings down the overall ratings!

The lodge is beautiful and the surroundings are stunning. Every day we saw giraffes and different types of buck, wither from our villa or on our way ito and from the lodge. We also loved the resident warthogs and the little meerkats (which we got to feed). The staff are wonderful and Axel did everything he could to make sure we were comfortable. The villa is beautifully decorated and the beds are very comfortable. A lovely breakfast was served every morning and the whole experience was just amazing. Will definitely come back!

All lodges in Colchester

Looking for a lodge?

Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.

Had an amazing stay at Parkview Safari Lodge. Located close to the southern entrance to Addo the lodge was very peaceful and luxurious, simply superb. Staff were friendly and helpful and would certainly recommend this lodge for anyone looking to stay whilst visiting Addo Elephant Park.

It was a great adventure sleeping in one of the tents right next to Addo Park fence. The staff is super friendly and helpful. We stayed 2 nights during our Safari trip to Addo. The lodge is right next to the Parks south gate.

We loved it all: the safari lodge style, the self-service bar, the room with the waterfall-like outdoor shower (view protected), the very good breakfast, the super tasty dinner - and the sympatic hosts! :-)
