104 guests' feedbackWe had a wonderful stay at My Bushhouse, we will vir seker book at My Bushhouse again.
We enjoyed it very much. Will go again. Everything needed is available at home.
Wow! What a cute little place! We have stayed at many places, but this place stole our hearts! Safe with a lovely pool. Thank you very much for allowing us to call your place our home during our short vacation. The solar also makes everything better! Delicious fast hot geyser and everything else one needs! The aircons in every room are also a big winner! Great great great! We will stay here again!
See stars.
Had a great weekend! We had fun in the pool and barbecued, and watched the animals that came to visit. It's private, quiet and safe. Carrying capacity was not a problem at all and the air conditioner was a winner in the heat. Enjoyed the outdoor shower too. We see you again.
We had a very nice stay. Very quiet and the pool was fantastic. Air conditioning was very effective. We enjoyed barbecuing on the stoep.
Very nice stay with everything you need. The solar with load shedding was a bonus and the air conditioner certainly helped a lot in the heat. Children really enjoyed the pool. Many animals came to visit. We really enjoyed our time and would definitely like to come and stay at the accommodation again. Our little house in the woods!
We had such a lovely stay at "My Bushhouse (Bayt AlGhaba)". We were greeted by the giraffe on the day we arrived, and Martie also gave us a call to make sure all was in order.
Stay was ok, good shower pressure but small space, comfortable beds, free WiFi and assistance with load shedding, outside shower unusable due to foliage.
This was our third visit and again very pleasant to stay there. The solars were a bonus during load shedding. It had a good face lift since our last visit which only made it more enjoyable. Would definitely recommend this accommodation to visitors looking for a safe and peaceful place to stay.
We stayed here 2 years ago and loved it so much. Truly feels like our home from home.
We and especially the grandchildren really enjoyed the pool. Nice and safe place with all the facilities one could want and especially with the load shedding the solar helped a lot.
Lovely stay with everything needed and more. Very neat, clean and safe. Help available with any queries or problems, promptly resolved. Air conditioning a big plus. Very hot on arrival, 39 degrees. Just one note, winter bedding on the beds.
The facilities are sufficient with many plus points at a good price. The air conditioning in the bedrooms is fantastic in the hot summer evenings. The solar facilities to keep some lights and fans on are a definite asset to My Bushhouse. The patio area that is covered with mesh is a very nice area for hanging out. The full DStv to maybe watch the weekend's rugby and keep the small team busy is very convenient. Recommendations would be to make equipment available to be able to clean braai pits and create coals. Maybe a shovel and metal shovel to clear the area for the next day's barbecue will help. The cleanliness of the outdoor area can be improved. Many months of dry leaves lie everywhere and the garden has had little attention. Other than that, My Bushhouse will definitely see us again!
It's not a very big house so don't be more than 4 persons. Have a very nice visit stoep with braai and with oven facilities on the stoep. Porch is covered with bars and mesh to keep out unwanted things. The 1 shower can be a problem if there are more than 4 persons. The pool was also a nice escape in the hot weather. The double bed could be just a bit bigger as I think the bed is smaller than a double bed.
Perhaps one can get better access to a small pond to tap clean water.
We had a wonderful stay, everything was spotless. The swimming pool was a wonderful escape in the heat. The enclosed porch with its wire mesh makes it possible to hang out until late without the bugs eating you. Many animals came to visit. We really enjoyed the few days and would love to stay at My Bushhouse again. Thank you Martie for your kindness.
Best place most beautiful scenery. Martie went out of her way to make our holiday special for us.
We enjoyed our stay at My Bushhouse (Bayt AlGhaba). The house is clean and the braai area is convenient with the basin and stove next to the braai. The pool and animals kept my son entertained without the need to watch TV. I would highly recommend My Bushhouse to any friend or stranger. It was awesome, thank you Martie for the use of your home.
We had a great time, the house has everything we needed. We felt very safe, the enclosed braai was cozy. Many animals around the house, we will definitely stay here again.
Toaster didn't work 100% and the iron didn't work at all.
Very nice, just have to make sure there is enough power, that the broom and mop are there especially if people are staying longer than just a weekend.
House is lovely secure with all necessary security gates and bars. Pool is small but beautiful under shade trees. Lovely cozy porch with plenty of space for 4 people!
Oven was very dirty and smelly could not use it at all. Only the top is cleaned.
We went for a lovely walk, even to the Amazing Kruger View Restaurant. The house is neat and clean. Location is very good. And saw many animals near the house.
Location good. Security good. Pool clean and tidy. House well furnished. Really a nice place to visit. Many animals come to eat at home.
The unit is well furnished. The porch with braai and stove is wonderful. Everyone can have fun together while food is being prepared. Many animals came to visit regularly. Only the stairs to the porch can be a problem for some people.
Nice patio, nice outdoor hangout. 6 people? Only 1 double sofa in living room! And that's it. Place needs serious attention. No protection for your car against nature.
Very nice place, only the roads are a bit bad.
What a wonderful house, we have been traveling to Marloth Park for quite some time now and we like to stay in different houses and locations. Bayt AlGhaba is for sure one of our favorites, we will definitely be going back. The layout of the house is awesome, fully equipped with everything you'll need, we couldn't have asked for more. Thanks Martie for making us feel so welcome.
The place really surprised us and was a lot more than expected from a forest house. The oven on the stoep next to the braai was fantastic, because while the fire was being lit I could get the side dishes ready there too without having to be on one side in the kitchen. It makes family gatherings so much more fun!
Comfortable, fully equipped house, in the middle of nature. It was so peaceful and quiet. The wild animals came to say hello every day. What a lovely way to rest and then take on life again.
Well equipped bush house. Great stay in a quiet area within an easy walk to the river. Frequent visits by warthog, impala and bush buck. Would love to return.
I could not fault this little home, it was perfect. I'm going back, keep up the good work!
Lonely little house in the bushveld.
We as a family were there with my 2 small boys. It was really very nice and will go back to the cottage every time. We really enjoyed it there.
Had a great time is very quiet and safe the house really has everything you need and the veranda with its braai and cooking facility is excellent. Really enjoyed the splash pool. Will definitely visit again.
Love the indoor BBQ and pool. Felt very safe and had a great time.
When the worst part of your stay is leaving it behind you know it was worth it. Thank you for sharing your house with us.
It was our second visit to the house and it was once again pleasant to make use of this accommodation. The accommodation ensures guests' safety. It is nice to sometimes just sit on the patio and enjoy the natural surroundings.
It was a lovely holiday. The house is equipped with everything you need. Very safe.
Was neat, enjoyed it will stay there again.
We had a very nice stay here. Owner was very helpful with any request. The house has everything you might need. Shop is nearby. Animals often come to say hello. Thank you very much for lending us the house.
My Bushhouse is ideally located - walking distance to the Crocodile River with easy access where no 4x4 vehicle is required. The facilities are sufficient.
Everything was as expected and contributed to a pleasant stay. A pity that alarms and security gates had to be a factor but I suppose that is a sign of the times.
Everything is there and house is nice and clean. Great for a family with children.
The house is located in such a way that it feels like you are alone in nature all the time. Several goats visited there daily. The fact that the stoep is equipped with a stove and braai makes it very cozy. Everyone can hang out together. Only the stairs can be a problem for older people or those with difficulty walking. The inside is very neat and well equipped. From the outside it looks old but when you go through the wooden gate it is just a pleasure. We had a very nice stay.
Very neat house with a lovely porch where you can hang out until late without anything or mosquitoes bothering you. Nice splash pool outside to cool off in after a hot day. Would definitely recommend to someone who wants to enjoy the forest.
The house is very well equipped with everything you need for a few days' stay. We drove to the Kruger every day and the distance was no problem. The swimming pool after a warm day in the Kruger was a bonus.
It is a cozy, affordable place in the forest where warthogs and ibex came to visit us. The house has everything you need to just relax. The arrangements to get the keys went smoothly. Would love to go again, because it is now also "our" little forest house.
All amenities as well as DStv. Nice porch with indoor barbecue. Splash pool. AC in rooms and living area. Lots of wildlife around the house. Please feed them. Dry and animals are hungry. Afternoons galore. Close to Kruger for day trips.
The house was absolutely awesome. The outdoor/indoor cooking/visiting area is well set up and there is hardly any need to be inside the house. House and all surroundings were clean and well kept. Swimming pool is full and was fully functional which is not always the case when accommodations are listed with a 'splash pool". Loads of animals had come to visit us at the house. Warthogs, impala and kudu were in abundance. Giraffe also made guest appearances on 2 occasions. Bush babies and civets were also seen at night time. I will most certainly make use of "My Bushhouse" in the future.
The house itself is neat and meets one's basic needs. But the screen window frames are all loose, and falling out. The master bedroom's light switch is faulty. There are no bedside lamps in the master bedroom, which makes it very impractical. The kitchen utensils are not complete, tons of knives, but not enough tablespoons or teaspoons. When we arrived the garden tools were just left in the middle of nowhere, we had to move them out of the way ourselves. The garden hose was still in the pool, had to move it to get in and out of the house comfortably, so that the children don't fall over it.
What a wonderful home with all the luxuries and even more to offer! Definitely felt at peace there and enjoyed every moment with lots of animals coming up to the fence and giraffes sleeping at night not even 5 meters away from the house. The swimming pool is an extra bonus and lovely cool down on the extra hot summer days. This has become our home away from home in Marloth and we will definitely be booking there from now on.
The house is spacious, has everything you need and much more. No canopy as advertised. There was a heavy thunderstorm during our stay and we were so worried that it would hail and damage the vehicle. It rained and sounded like hail. We really recommend him and would definitely like to stay in him again.
Will definitely recommend and use again. Value for money. Everything you need.
We saw plenty bush babies and a civet cat that was very tame.
It is a very beautiful place and is very sociable! Will definitely recommend this place any time.
We really enjoyed our stay at Bayt AlGhaba. The place is very well furnished and very beautiful. The stoep part was our dream and we spent hours walking around there. It was for sure the best choice we made. I would recommend it to anyone, on the contrary, I have already recommended it to a few people. The pool was a great treat and the animals at the watering hole were awesome. Your question was whether I would be able to recommend it and although there is only Yes or No, I would say very definitely. It's value for money. The place is very well furnished and everything you need is there. Man, we just really enjoyed it and can't stop talking about the place. Martie, the owner, personally called us from Qatar (Middle East) the next day to make sure we were safe there and that everything was in order. It was extremely dear of her to me, the personal contact meant a lot.
Everything in order and very well appointed.
We had a great stay, will definitely come back again.
Good, everything you need.
Very nice place so close to nature. Thank you for your kind service.
Vir ouer mense is dit 'n probleem om by die trappe op te klim ─ geen vashouplek. Messe en vurke kort aandag, veral as mens steak eet, want die messe is stomp.
We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and will definitely go again. My Bushhouse is spacious and very clean and tidy. It was lovely to sit in the pool and watch the animals come to drink water at the watering hole. Unforgettable.
Very friendly people and clean.
It was a wonderful stay with everything one needed to fully enjoy every moment.
Thanks to Martie and Debbie who once again ensured that our stay was enjoyable.
Very neat and clean house with clean bedding. Owner very friendly and always follows up. Well worth it.
Enjoyed it a lot. Especially the bush babies was a favourite.
Very cute place. We felt very safe and really enjoyed the large variety of animals that wander between the houses. My Bushhouse has their own waterhole which regularly attracted animals. The nightcaps also provided great enjoyment. The house met all our needs. We will definitely want to visit there again. Thank you very much for the effort made to make our visit so pleasant.
We had a great time relaxing, the tranquility away from the hustle and bustle of the city was wonderful. The stoep is a place you never want to leave, you can sit there all day and relax. We had some animals come to visit, saw monkeys, wild pigs, goats and even a kudu family and of course beautiful birds. We would definitely recommend My Bushhouse to people.
We were pleasantly surprised with the nice place! We were 4 adults and 2 children aged 7 and 10. Everything was clean and tidy, linen and towels were fresh. We enjoyed the few days on the veranda and around the pool. The bush babies visited us regularly. Game was a bit scarce. But luckily a visitor every day. There was just something missing here and there, such as a braai and extra chairs on the veranda. But nothing without which we couldn't get along. The pool was a welcome treat in the heat! We will go again for sure!
The inner cooking area on the veranda was very useful. We enjoyed the pool and the animal visitors.
My family and I really liked the place, it was comfortable and very safe. We plan to come again in the year, if the house will be available we will use the house again.
Perfectly located for wildlife viewing, very tidy and the ideal getaway for any family. Will come back again anytime.
See stars.
My Bushhouse (Bayt AlGhaba) is value for money for sure. We enjoyed sitting by the fire and watching the children swim in the splash pool. The covered braai and food place is very conveniently arranged and is a bonus for when it rains. I felt very at home with the soft linen on the beds. We also had many visitors, night monkeys, turtles, warthogs, zebras etc. It's not too far from the main road and is easy to find. For sure a nice place to enjoy time with family and friends.
We really enjoyed our stay in Marloth. The house has everything you need and we as a family had a nice time on the porch which is closed for bugs in the evening. We will definitely go back again.
Excellent, without question. The entire holiday exceeded our expectations. We saw much more wildlife than we imagined, and we experienced the bush in a direct, personal way. The accommodation and attention to detail were superb. We would recommend this holiday home without hesitation, and we would be eager to go back for more!
House small, but cosy, very tidy and had no problems. Wild animals are not as plentiful as previous visits to Marloth.
This is our darling little house. Always a pleasure to stay there.
Second holiday spent at My Bush house and hopefully go back soon. Great location within Marloth Park and no shortage of 4 legged visitors. Amazing. Love it. Thanks to all concerned for a wonderful stay.
Was an experience back in nature with the kids and grandson.
It is a very practical place with indoor and outdoor barbecue, nice porch closed with mesh wire and mesh for mosquitoes, very nice splash pool. The night monkeys and forest night monkeys' visits in the evening were an experience and there are many birds.
We only had one big problem, we were there too short and didn't want to come back! In our opinion, this is the ideal cottage for a getaway. We enjoyed the many birds and animals and can definitely recommend the cottage. Thank you, it was a lovely weekend!
Owners make a lot of effort! Neat and has everything you need! Would recommend for sure!
This house is just lovely. Nothing is needed and everything is excellent. Thanks Martie, for sharing you gem with us.
Many animals in the area and we had a nice walk.
Perfect. It is a wonderful and peaceful place with privacy and animal life. We enjoyed our time so much and will definitely make use of it again.
A beautiful house with everything you need. The bedroom with the double bed is very cramped, but luckily guests only sleep there. We were mostly outside or on the patio.
Loved it and can't wait to visit again. Perfect accommodation, not luxurious but extremely homely and comfortable with everything one needs for a laid back relaxing holiday. Debbie (the caretaker) was exceptionally helpful and any problems dealt with immediately. The outside area is just lovely and the splash pool fantastic. Having visited Marloth several times Bayt AlGhaba rates among one of the best we've had.
The house was within our needs and everything we wanted was there, it made the stay nice and made us LekkeSlaap! However, the one toilet leaked which made it a bit inconvenient and the one towel rail was broken. Other than that, we can't complain.
We had a great stay, but still feel that the maintenance of the house has been left behind. The one couch's back is e.g. no longer stuck. We also thank the owner who arranged for the full DStv to be available.
It was so nice to be in the Bosveld. Right across the river we saw 5 lions that came to drink water. In Marloth itself the animals were plentiful: the zebras, kudus, warthogs, impalas and ostriches moving between the house was a bonus point.
Absolutely fantastic. We will definitely see the house again. Everything is just very right. The house is well equipped and one feels extremely safe. The little garden is neat and the swimming pool spotless. There is a lot of action from the animals that come to drink at the water hole and the night monkeys kept us busy in the early evening. Lions are clearly audible. Just remember that purchasing power is used.
Very neat. Everything is there that is needed. Close to everything we wanted to do as a group. Gulf - Komatiepoort. Malelane and Leopard Creek. Close to the Kruger entrance - Crocodile & Malelane.
Great variety of wildlife and vegetation - close to wildlife park and other attractions.
This is a must for every person. You have no disturbances, traffic or noise. It is nice to recharge our batteries in the quiet and peaceful environment.
We had a lovely week. Many animals came to visit us and we even saw a night owl one night. We had a great stay and were thankful for the air conditioner in the house because it was very hot. We will definitely go again!
Pleasant house. Luxurious, nice lounging area inside and outside. Pool that relieves the hot weather.
Was thoroughly enjoyed by young and old. Will definitely be back.
It was very nice, we really enjoyed it and will definitely go again!
