OUR CLIENTS SAY
-
Most special & breathtaking long weekend away at Wolwekrans. Thank you!
Everything was absolutely beyond 5 stars..
From the caring management and constant assistance from the delightful Floors & Ane, to all the magnificent hikes around the property..to a waterfall and even up the Schoemans mountain (yes we made it!), to the breathtaking views at our very own remote challet (even in the shower!), the entire family absolutely fell inlove with Wolwekrans & Schoemanskloof & we cannot wait to be back!
Thank you so much to Nedine for assisting the booking so greatly and making a plan for us as it was a secret getaway for my fathers birthday. Such an hospitable place!! Highly recommend for any families , couples or solo adventurers looking for an offline weekend in the magic mountains. This is certainly a very special hidden gem..
Ps- a little reminder for anyone who does have a 4x4; be prepared!! The 30 minute road up was no joke and a bit of an adventurous steep Jeep track of its own as you’d need to know some serious 4x4’ing skills to maneuver!! Make sure not to arrive too late at night like we did! However, Wolwekrans do organise for you to safely park at the bottom & get a lift up if you not sure (another bonus of this special place)! - Brilliant view' brilliantly private' clean and well decorated. Everything you need was available.
- Wolwekrans eco lodge is definitely a must visit. Beautiful view and amazing view from one's own private braai area and shower. Stunning. Chalet was clean and very comfortable. The drive up the mountain to the chalet felt like a outing on its own. Can't wait to visit again.
- We were lucky enough to be the first stay in the new Luxury Tents. Glamping at its finest! Its secluded & scenic. The tent has all that you need for it to feel like a hotel room, while still allowing you to feel in touch with nature. Amazing views, hiking trails & fields of wild proteas.
- Little slice of heaven at the top of a mountain. Hectic 4x4 route to reach it but so worth it. Magnificent views, stunning walks. Gorgeous chalets. Really worth a visit.
- Most incredible setting with majestic views and beautiful walks in a nature reserve. A treat to be able to bring our dog and to see bushbuck, Duiker, monkeys and incredible birds.
- Very peaceful and quiet with great views. 4x4 vehicle needed fir access. Situated in the mountains. Hiking trails available.
