14 guests' feedbackLoved every minute. Relaxing. Will definitely recommend.
Would recommend, would love to go back again in the summer.
Tranquil surroundings and a beautiful view. The sunsets were amazing.
We loved our stay at Livingstone Bush Lodge! It was perfect for our family reunion, with space for all four families. Bedrooms and en-suite bathrooms lovely and spacious, with complete privacy. We loved the warthogs, kudus and ostrich coming past the deck to visit. We cooked up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoyed viewing the beautiful landscape and game from their game vehicle. Will definitely be back!
Livingstone Bush Lodge was fully equipped and made the weekend so much easier and more enjoyable knowing we only had to bring our clothes and food. The fact that our group included 11 people with several teenagers, the various rooms made it easy to give everyone a nice place to sleep. The highlight was probably the game drives in the 4x4 and of course R&R at the Kalahari Oasis!
Lovely and peaceful weekend in top accommodation and lovely surroundings. Chef Andrew's food was top notch. Can definitely recommend it.
We enjoyed Livingstone Bush Lodge, place was nice and quiet. Having a chef as an option is also the best addition to the place. I would however suggest Lynette be specific on the description of the house that one of the bedrooms is situated outside so whoever is booking is aware of it. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay.
Even though it rained all weekend, it was great to be there.
Our weekend stay at Livingstone Bush Lodge was nothing short of amazing! The house is absolutely beautiful. The rooms are very spacious and private from the other rooms. House is very clean and the kitchen has everything you need! Amazing pool, deck, and boma area. I will definitely return.
The facilities are fantastic, nice happy house with swimming pool and boma where you can make a big fire.
It was our first visit as a family with grandchildren. It was truly wonderful and everyone wants to visit Livingstone again! Thank you very much for friendly and fast service when we needed you!
Wow, the house is beautiful, very spacious and with the most beautiful view. It is equipped with absolutely everything you could need and outside area with deck, pool and braai area is a winner! We will definitely be back.
House is very big and fireplaces inside help with the cold.
