Good day Izanke
I am happy that you enjoyed your stay with us. Yes, unfortunately, there was a power outage in our estate due to cable breakage (not stolen). This could not be addressed at night time. Thank you for bringing to my attention that emergency light was not working. They have now been replaced. We seldom have electrical problems and this was definitely not a planned outage at all (we don't even have load shedding at the best of times - very lucky).
You are welcome to visit anytime again.

Good day Sandra
My sincere apologies for the inconsiderate neighbours that you experienced with their loud TV. I do try my best with every message sent to say no loud noise is allowed. I must say, I don’t have many guests complaining about this and our walls are double walls, not thin ones. So the TV must have been loud!
If you wish to book next time, I would then recommend Lodge 4 which is standalone and very private.
My apologies again.

Good value for money.
We had a very nice stay. The WiFi was very welcome - I think just a password to make it more secure would be good. The customer service was great and friendly. The restaurant recommendations were much appreciated. Just a few tidiness little things that can be attended to. The towels did not smell fresh. Some of the cushions on the sofas/chairs were dirty. But apart from the little things, we had a very nice stay.

Hi Carina
Thank you for the wonderful review, it is always appreciated.
Yes, Tamboti Lodge 4 is our rustic unit but it indeed tends to be my most popular, for the reason that it is rustic and we have tried to keep it being at one with nature.
I am sure for you coming from 7 Stars Lodge it was certainly not what you are used to.
I certainly would like to keep it rustic but clean and comfortable. It will be upgraded in the next few months and hopefully, it won’t lose that natural feel.

We had a great time in Tamboti and the swimming pool was a pleasure. Thanks, Tammy, for all your trouble with directions for the best route back home. We would definitely stay at Leadwood Lodge again.

My sincere apologies about the bed being in the additional second bedroom
I took it for granted that you would not mind spending the night in the room with her, perhaps I should have double checked with you, as she booked after your request for it to be put in the lounge. Again my apologies
I have a new housekeeper as my long standing lady passed away suddenly. So yes she should have checked up on the coffee in the container and she should have place the milk in the fridge. This is unacceptable and it would have been nice if you could have brought it to my attention as I could have rectified the above urgently for you.
Be as it may you did not bring it to my immediate attention ,but I will address the above with my new housekeeper.

Overnight for work.
For a 2nd time Leadwood was a quick one night stay for us for work purposes. The accommodation is very clean, comfortable and safe. The hostess very helpful and provides all the information for gate access, etc. We prefer stand alone units and unfortunately we could not book the one we wanted this time. However, the lodges that are adjacent to each other and can be used for a family unit are not so private and you hear your neighbors (they probably hear you too). We will stay there again if the right unit is available.

Good day Danielle,
Thank you for your review, it's always appreciated. The very good ones especially.
I am sorry that you felt the lodge was not suitable for 3 people but you did see the size and the photos of the lodge on the website before booking it. I too made you aware that a single bed would be added to the lounge area.
The Wi-Fi was not a problem the day you arrived as my guests, still used it when they departed. I'm not sure why you did not contact me sooner if you knew about the Wi-Fi problem and your connection still persisted for 2 days. As I stated I would have definitely made a plan for someone to come around and rectify it, during my 2 day's absence.
The animals do roam freely around our lodge as I too saw the giraffe hoof prints around the carport and pathway area, other animals had also been there. You were aware that you could go for bush walks, self-game drives, etc, and that we have all the plains game roaming freely throughout our estate.
We certainly offer more value for money in comparison to booking a small Rondavel hut in Kruger. Especially the amenities you receive whilst here. I too discounted your extra 2-night stay due to the inconvenience of the Wi-Fi and the blind which I also installed on the window for you.
Kind regards,

Leadwood Tree Safari Lodge 's response
Good day Lochner,
My sincere apologies that you feel so unhappy about the customer service you received from me regarding lack of communication.
Regarding the break in electricity, it was beyond my control as we are all aware of Eskom's dire problem. When there is no electricity we have no cell communication at all. However, I did come over to apologize for the inconvenience caused to you because of this, the apology in person was not accepted by you, though.
Without any extra costs imposed on you, I located you to a larger more comfy lodge, namely lodge 4 than the one you had originally booked namely lodge 3.
The small instant hot water geyser system was explained to you, as we try our utmost to conserve not only electricity but water as well in Hoedspruit.
A little bit of advice to you when you book at other establishments in the future, is to ask them permission to move their furniture around from outdoors to indoors before taking it upon yourselves to do so.
The manhole plate that is broken on the roadside curb has been reported to Estate management to be rectified again and I will continue to follow this up with them until it is done. However, there is a large white rock there as well which acts as a warning to be cautious.
My apologies once again for the inconvenience caused by Eskom's failures.
I'm sorry that you think I was lacking in communication, however, I tried to communicate as best I could via WhatsApp as well as in person.
Regards,
Tammy

Very disappointing, third time using and won't be again.
It's the third time I've booked my company people there. Third time hot water is a problem. The time Priscilla reports that the drain of the toilet is blocked on the day of arrival. Nothing happens, the Tuesday gets bad treatment and they want to unblock her invoice for the drain. Accusing her of sanitary napkins clogging the drain, Priscilla is a new mom so her cycle hasn't started again, can't be her, which she also reported to them. We as a company therefore refuse to pay for the drain unblocker and will never refer people to them.

Good day, Bok and Priscilla
Thank you for the response provided.
There was, unfortunately, no mention to our housekeeper about the blocked drain as this would have been handled with utmost urgency. We have just had all toilets and drains serviced by the plumbers, which is part of our routine maintenance plan every 4 months. When the units were prepared Monday there were no issues reported so we were not aware of the blockage only on the day of departure we were made aware of this. After inspection by the plumber, woman's sanitary products were removed and were found as the cause of the blockage.
The communication received by you was to advise of the technical issues regarding Netflix, even when arriving to see what could be the problem there was still no mention of the blockage or any hot-water issues.
We have addressed all the mentioned issues to prevent future occurrences, I hope that we might see you in the future.

Tammy

Our large communal pool has to be repaired due to a huge crack at the base.
This is why there is barely any water left in it.
It is winter and most people don’t swim in winter days which is why we have scheduled the repairs to be done in this season.

Stayed overnight at Leadwood on the way back from the Kruger National Park. Very pleasant experience. We were moved to a larger unit without asking (or having to pay more at all) just because it was available. In the future, would much rather stay at Leadwood Lodge and drive into the game park every day than stay in the game park. Tammy is extremely helpful and friendly, 10/10!

Good accommodation for a family wanting to stay for more than one night.
It's a very nice, well-equipped unit for a family that wants to spend more than one night. It is a modern home with everything needed for guests' disposal. Silence and rest after a long day on the road. Suitable for guests looking for forest adventure. The directions to the lodge, however, were not very clear, as the lodge is away from other residential units between the trees. There is also no road to the lodge available and we had to carry our luggage across a forest path through the forest to the lodge. For us as seniors it was very uncomfortable.

Good day Albertus,
Thank you for your review it is always appreciated .
Regarding directions. Very clear directions were sent to you on sms and on WhatsApp .
Unfortunately we do try to retain the eco system and keep the surrounding bush as natural as possible , there is only 30 meters to walk to the lodge decking from the car park area .
I’m sorry that it was a bit of a disappointment for you with the luggage .
Take care.

Tammy

Disappointed.
Cute place with potential. We stayed in Lodge 1. Looks like the photos, except the place needs renovation, e.g. broken treads on the path and in the showers. No welcome, so you wonder where to go when you get there. My biggest annoyance is that every closet is either packed full of other people's stuff, or covered with cables. There is nowhere to unpack your clothes. I also think it's inappropriate to find women's products and underwear in the drawers. I didn't pay to stay inside people's house. The kitchen bin cannot be opened or closed. Tammy explained when I complained that I should just jerk him until he opened. The geyser burst and damaged the cabinets and they haven't been able to replace them yet. Daily cleaning services are also advertised. That's not the case. I arranged with Tammy and then we just sit and wait for the girl to come, after being told she would come at a specific time. When she was there, only the bulk was washed. No beds, floors or bathrooms were made on the side. The one sliding door can no longer open. When we contacted Tammy she explained that they had a termite problem and now the door no longer moves. On sight itself not a problem. It's only because there is no air conditioning that you look for the doors open. The place was nicely centrally located and there is a lot of wildlife to be seen right from the porch. If you don't mind staying among other people's stuff or keeping your bags packed you will enjoy it here.

Lovely unit in the woods.
We were pleasantly surprised by the beautiful, spacious unit. It is very nicely and tastefully furnished with everything one could possibly need, at four-star quality. It was clear that Tammy had put effort into making it special. However, one definitely needs air conditioning in the summer heat - unfortunately the fan was not sufficient in December's smoldering temperature. We were unfortunately under the impression when looking at the summary and photos and booking our stay, that the two units are attached / right next to each other and share the pool. So we assumed that the use of the pool was included in our unit. In the tremendous heat, it was a big disappointment for us that this was not the case. Had we realized this in advance, we would have booked the other unit that was still available at the time. It would certainly help if it could be clearly stated that way in the summary. However, Tammy was very friendly and accommodating and allowed us to swim in the pool before and after the other guests left, which we really appreciated. She was a very pleasant hostess and very helpful - she came to meet us just before we left and we had a nice chat which added a positive personal "touch" to the experience at Leadwood Lodge. The unit was lovely, and there were just a few little things that we would suggest that could help make one's stay even better in the future: - We would appreciate a small trash can in the bathroom or room, so that ' one does not only have the kitchen trash to use; - There was some dog hair on our duvet - not bad, but still a little unexpected and slightly disturbing for me who is not a dog lover. When we went to check on the other unit, we saw that the dogs on the premises were walking back and forth in the unit while the woman working there was changing the bedding, which explained this. Really cute dogs, but if they could just be kept outside when cleaning it would help with this. - A topper on the bed would be great as it was a warm duvet so we couldn't sleep with it and took the duvet cover off to use as a topper. It would be another bonus if there is also a cooler duvet in the summer; - A little more storage space for one's clothes would help. The cabinet only had a hanging part with about 4 hangers. There is a chest of drawers, but it is packed with blankets and extra necessities. - It would be great if a mosquito net could be provided for the bed. Mosquito netting at the doors and windows can also help, but air conditioning can eliminate the need for mosquito netting. - I know most places don't provide this anymore these days, but I always appreciate it when a small towel is provided with the big towels for when I wash my hair. Other than these few minor things it was great, and we will definitely stay there again if we come either in the winter, or book the other unit, or both units with family or friends. Thank you so much Tammy!

Hi Johann
Ek vra verskoning vir my Afrikaans, maar ek gaan probeer.
Ek is so bitter jammer oor die uitgang kode, as ek sou geweet dat julle so vroeg wil ry, sou ek vir julle baie vroeg die uitgang kode na jou toe gestuur het.
Dit was een van die dae wat ek my foon in die kamer gelos het en dit nie hoor lui nie.
Meeste van ons gaste vertrek omtrent so 10:00 se kant.
Once again, I really do apologize for the code problem.
Mooi bly

As the Lodge Chalet 2 is newly built , the rubble was moved to one side ,and will be removed as soon as possible,we have had continuous bookings making it difficult to remove while guests are here.
PG Glass is attending to the locks on the doors this week, so all will be sorted soonest!
