Magic! by

We had the most amazing magic break at Mukwa Farm. Highly recommended to anyone who wants a total break and time-out.


Amazing by

Absolutely amazing! Friendly staff! Need and tidy. Will be back!


Unpleasant experience by

The farm is actually 50 minutes drive to Numbi gate.Better off leaving from Nelspruit.The gravel road to the facility is in excess of 10km and not good for a low vehicle.The kitchen utensils are seriously inadequate and old.The electrics are not working and a serious hazard-keeps tripping.
The rooms are not cleaned and although the Site shows very good photos, the units have bad finishes. They do not deserve to be used for tourism at all.

Establishments Response:

Firstly, the guest booked room 10 which sleeps 5. He arrives with 6 family members without paying for the extra member!

The lodge, from the tar road it is only 21km to Numbi Gate and certainly a lot closer than Nelspruit.

The main dirt road to the lodge is well graded and the guest arrived in a Pajero 4x4?

This is a self-catering lodge as stipulated on the website. We provide the basic kitchen ware, including: kettle, micro, two plate burner, toaster, toasted sandwich maker, crockery and cutlery. Also the unit has its own braai area with free wood! We do not include however, ( which the guest demanded and was provided) extra Pyrex dishes, pans and frying pans.

I explained to the guest that he cannot plug more than two appliances into one plug outlet, the amperage on a plug outlet is not designed for this, for safety reasons.

Mukwa Farm Lodge received a four star grading from the S A Tourism Board (although we advertise 3 star) and our rates are charged accordingly, R350.00 PP sharing.

In future I would suggest that Mr Miyanadeniya consider booking accommodation in the R 1400.00 PP bracket to suffice his needs!




it was very much enjoyable great experience and very helpful staff


Peacefull surroundings by

Breakfast not served as said in advert, but everything else was wonderfull. The tranquilety of the area was just what we needed for a short break away. Flat was clean and everything we needed was available from towels to cooking utensils. Thanks we will definately be visiting you again.
