Not recommended. Not at all. The tent was not cleaned. Bedding was dirty with stains. There were old dead spiders everywhere and outside of that the bathroom was open in the winter so the whole tent was incredibly cold. The light at the braai area was very bad and all the tents were crowded together without any privacy. You camp in the woods, but have to use doom to make sure you don't get bitten by spiders. There are much better places in Dinokeng for that price! It is very expensive for what you get.

Nie aanbeveel nie. Geensins. Die tent was nie skoongemaak nie. Beddegoed was vuil met kolle. Daar was ou dooie spinnenkoppe oral en buite dit was die badkamer oop in die winter, so die hele tent was ongelooflik koud. Die lig by die braai area was baie sleg en al die tente was opmekaar sonder enige privaatheid. Mens kamp in die bos, maar moet doom gebruik om seker te maak jy word nie deur spinnekoppe gebyt nie. Daar is baie beter plekke in Dinokeng teen daardie prys! Dit is baie duur vir wat jy kry.

We apologise that you did not enjoy our luxury tents. Glamping is intended to be an outdoor experience that makes it easier to arrive without all the labour typically involved. The experience invites you to meet new campers, enjoy your weekend, and discover new areas offering game drives, outdoor hot showers, fishing, swimming etc. In the bush, we cannot prevent insects and spiders, as everything comes out at night. We weren't informed that you desired exclusivity as our camping is designed to be social rather than private. The lighting for the braai area is sufficient and even has sensors for when they're not in use. Our prices are affordable and we even granted you a winter special 20% discount. We're sorry that you found our tents lacking. We have had return clients and all our linens were clean upon your arrival. Over the weekend, insects may have stained the bedding. We provided extra blankets and heating fans, ensuring everything is in working order and that water (both hot and full gas) is fully available. Fortunately, there are now over 70 lodges in Dinokeng so if your experience wasn't what you expected, the best thing to do is explore around for what may better suit your needs. Many places within Dinokeng cater to a spectrum of requirements. We do apologise if your needs were not met. Have a lovely evening. For private tents, we recommend 'The Hogs Guest House'. They even have Jacuzzis and offer complete privacy. Best of luck, and thank you for supporting us and staying at Jimmy's Place. Enjoy your weekend.

Ons vra om verskoning dat jy nie ons luukse tente geniet het nie. Glamping is bedoel om 'n buitelug-ervaring te wees wat dit makliker maak om te arriveer sonder al die arbeid wat gewoonlik betrokke is. Die ervaring nooi jou uit om nuwe kampeerders te ontmoet, jou naweek te geniet en nuwe gebiede te ontdek wat wildritte, warm buitestorte, visvang, swem ens bied. In die bos kan ons nie insekte en spinnekoppe voorkom nie, want alles kom saans uit. Ons is nie ingelig dat jy eksklusiwiteit verlang nie, aangesien ons kampering ontwerp is om sosiaal eerder as privaat te wees. Die beligting vir die braai-area is voldoende en het selfs sensors vir wanneer dit nie gebruik word nie. Ons pryse is bekostigbaar en ons het selfs 'n winter spesiale 20% afslag vir jou toegestaan. Ons is jammer dat u gevind het dat ons tente ontbreek. Ons het terugkerende kliënte gehad en al ons linne was skoon met jou aankoms. Oor die naweek het insekte dalk die beddegoed gevlek. Ons het ekstra komberse en verwarmingswaaiers voorsien, om te verseker dat alles in werkende toestand is en dat water (beide warm en vol gas) ten volle beskikbaar is. Gelukkig is daar nou meer as 70 lodges in Dinokeng, so as jou ervaring nie was wat jy verwag het nie, is die beste ding om te doen om rond te verken vir wat dalk beter by jou behoeftes pas. Baie plekke binne Dinokeng voldoen aan 'n spektrum van vereistes. Ons vra om verskoning as daar nie aan u behoeftes voldoen is nie. Lekker aand. Vir privaat tente beveel ons 'The Hogs Guest House' aan. Hulle het selfs Jacuzzi's en bied volledige privaatheid. Baie sterkte, en dankie dat jy ons ondersteun en by Jimmy's Place gebly het. Geniet jou naweek.

Weekend getaway. Tent is very comfortable and everything is still brand new. Only negatives are the noises from neighboring village and highway noises during the night.

Wegbreek naweek. Tent is baie gerieflik en alles is nog splinternuut. Enigste negatiewe is die geluide van naburige dorpie en hoofweg se geluide deur die nag.

Hi Lizel Thank you for your comments. Unfortunately this problem is ongoing and the entire Dinokeng community is up in arms about the noise from the nearby village. We are trying to resolve this problem but it is not an easy task. It is good to know you enjoyed the Safari Tents and so sorry you had to put up with this nonsense. Kind regards Gail Jimmy's Place

Hallo Lizel Dankie vir jou kommentaar. Ongelukkig is hierdie probleem aan die gang en die hele Dinokeng-gemeenskap is in hul arms oor die geraas van die nabygeleë dorpie. Ons probeer om hierdie probleem op te los, maar dit is nie 'n maklike taak nie. Dit is goed om te weet jy het die Safari Tente geniet en so jammer dat jy hierdie snert moes uithou. Vriendelike groete Gail Jimmy's Place
