Local area description
Lythwood Lodge is relatief diep in geleë vanaf die hoofpad en toeganklik slegs per grondpad. Die pad is in ‘n goeie toestand en dus is Lythwood Lodge maklik bereikbaar. Dit is egter aan te beveel dat dit wel aan voornemende gaste uitgewys word. Dit alles maak egter die ligging eksklusief en baie privaat. Die landskap is byna ongerep met plaasdiere en perde in die omgewing wat ‘n alles bydra tot ‘n heerlike wegbreekervaring. Die diens van die personeel is deurgans baie goed en die restaurant se ontbyt en aandetes is van ‘n hoogstaande gehalte. Die kamers is goed toegerus en smaakvol ingerig, meer met ‘n tydlose, klassieke styl. Daar is verskeie areas binne die hoofgebou en buite op die terrein waar mens kan sit en kuier, lees of die pragtige omgewing beskou. Hoewel dit my nie gepla het nie, moet voornemende gaste in ag neem dat dit ver weg in ‘n landelike gebied gelee is, dus is WiFi nie altyd so sterk nie, boorgatwater word gebruik, plaasdiere word gehoor, ens. Die televisiekanale is beperk. Mens gaan egter nie tuis in so mooi omgewing en by so mooi plek om televisie te kyk nie, so dit het my nie gepla nie. Algeheel was dit ‘n heerlike verblyf, goeie wegbreek en ‘n plek waar ek lekker kon rus ver weg van die stad se gejaag! Het al vir ander mense aanbeveel en self mense hierheen geneem na ek vantevore hier tuisgegaan het.

Lythwood Lodge’s natural beauty is it’s biggest asset. It may take you 30 min. longer to get there from King Shaka International Airport than anticipated (due to the remote location). But worth the drive and, wait, the room phone was struck by lightning, which made the wake up call a ‘manual process’ and the Wi-Fi wasn’t working in room 9 on the evening of 20 October 2016. Apart from that, good amenities and very helpful service.

Ons het ongelukkig in die reste van ‘n trou-party beland. Verveelde gaste wat op banke rondlê en duidelik nie meer inspirerende diens ontvang nie. Onderhoud van die kamers laat veel te wense oor. ‘n Leeslamp sonder gloeilamp. Vrot melk in ‘n yskas. Water wat sleg ruik – of was dit die rioolstelsel? Met uitklaar word ek met ‘n groot rekening geskok – die lodge verstaan blykbaar nie die verhouding met LekkeSlaap nie. Geen finesse – sal met moeite terugkeer.
