Very clean and well equipped house. Beautifully decorated with everything needed to relax. Food for the mind and soul in this beautiful area of RSA.
What a fabulous find! Will definitely return. Peaceful, with a beautiful view. Well-equipped kitchen. Modern, with a cottage feel.
Spacious house in a lovely estate with beautiful views. Perfect for a family of four.
We had a wonderful stay! Swallows House was neat and clean. The house is nice and private with beautiful scenery. Although one had to drive slowly on the road to the house, it was largely paved.
We really enjoyed it.
Fantastic stay. Very clean and tidy with everything you need in the house.
Felt right at home, the owner puts in extra effort to make sure your stay is as comfy as possible. We loved every minute of our stay. Worth it!
Beautiful location with terrific views, quiet and very well equipped (apart from no coffee making equipment). Very comfortable and relaxing.
Lovely place with everything that you need.
Pleasant experience! Beautiful setting, lovely, homely cottage, and very well equipped.
Very nice stay, well equipped. The lights that work with loadshedding were truly a lifesaver.
We really enjoyed it as a family. Well equipped unit (more details can be posted on the website). The environment is beautiful.
Wow, what a very nice place. The house has everything you need. The rooms are spacious with lovely bathrooms. The view over the dam is breathtaking, especially when the fog is so over the mountains. Very peaceful and safe accommodation. Monica is very helpful and keeps you up to date with everything. We would recommend this place for sure.
Very nice place, well equipped with everything you need. Dishwasher is a bonus. Wish we could stay longer and spend more time at home, it's so nice and peaceful there.
So clean and tidy, and thought of everything - down to load shedding lights.
This was our second visit to Swallows House! The rate is very reasonable, the house is excellently equipped, cared for and maintained. Regular email and WhatsApp communication from the agent, and the web page with route directions, security, codes and the load shedding schedule were excellent and made our visit very easy. Swallows House is neat, clean, spacious and contains everything needed. The dishwasher was the icing on the cake!
I would definitely recommend it for a weekend getaway or even for a family vacation. The view is something special over the Da Gama Dam. The environment is clean and safe.
I loved the view to the dam.
We had a wonderful stay. Easy to find and not far from White River.
Beautiful place and beautiful views. Also clean too!
Thank you very much for an incredibly peaceful long weekend that we were able to spend in your place.
Beautiful location. Calm atmosphere. Security in the house and in the estate. Fully furnished.
Pictures do no justice to how beautiful this place is. View is amazing. Host took care of the smallest to biggest things. They even kept hot water bottles for cold nights, there are heaters in the bathroom as well. An inverter for loadshedding would make this place even more comfortable.
Unfortunately the roads have been damaged with all the rain so visiting Sabie is not a quick trip. Swallows House itself was such a treat and they really thought of everything to make your stay there as comfortable as possible.
It was great. The place was clean, and the view was breathtaking.
Great place to relax, enjoy the view and visit Kruger Park or Blyde River Canyon. We stayed here 6 years ago with our young kids and returned now with our teenagers and we still love the place.
What a great place! There is no wifi or TV that can distract you from the tranquility and recharging of nature. It's very safe too. The rooms are nice and spacious. The kitchen and living area are furnished with everything you would need. Monica is very helpful and keeps you updated with the loadshedding schedule. We would definitely recommend Swallows House!
Would come back again for sure really enjoyed it.
A spacious 2 bedroom and beautiful en-suite unit. The kitchen is well equipped and has a large gas stove for when there is loadshedding. The stoep is large and spacious and the view is absolutely stunning. If you love nature, peace and quiet this is just the spot to unwind !!! Its nestled in the Hazyview Nature Reserve with access control, the units are widely spaced out and you have your own peaceful spot. The mongoose and monkeys visit on a daily basis, making it quite entertaining. My only negative point is that they need to consider Wi-Fi for the unit, especially when it is a rainy day and where you are staying for a longer period. I would definitely recommend Swallows House, the host is very accommodating and always available but the setting is just wow!
Peace and quiet. Would have loved the option to swim somewhere due to the heat. However everything else was perfect.
Peaceful environment that recharges the batteries. Will go back again and thanks to Monica for feedback and keeping up to date with power issues due to the weather.
Incredibly nice stay.
Swallows House was an absolute treat to stay at. Everything was perfect.
I was escorting guests on a tour from Mpumalanga and I was able to rest and relax after a long day of working with guests.
A fantastic little place, would stay there again anytime, kids would have seen WiFi as a bonus, but the place and surroundings are top notch, would love to stay longer next time.
The accommodation was spacious, overlooking the lake. The facility is peaceful. We enjoyed the company of monkeys. The owner kept in touch with us and the instructions were clear.
Will definitely be back to stay longer. A very peaceful place to spend quality time with family.
Monica's personal touch in the house was wonderful to experience. She constantly made sure that we were up to date with everything that was needed.
Would love to come back soon.
The host was friendly and ensured that communication was accurate and timeous. The house itself was nothing short of perfect and absolutely stunning.
Swallows House is between White River and Hazyview near two gates of the Kruger Park. Conveniently equipped with a dishwasher makes the place a winner. You have to be careful at the entrance to the estate because the cars are speeding and there are a lot of big trucks. Unfortunately, the occupants of unit 5 made quite a bit of noise during our stay. The first two nights there was late music and on Sunday they worked on their deck until after dark.
Beautiful surroundings and very peaceful. Will go again. Many thanks to Monica and Beltha, much appreciated.
While one could hear the distant drum of the traffic from the highway (if one stood outside on the deck), the actual location was very peaceful and tranquil. A place to get away from it all. We didn't have a chance to swim in the dam as we used the house as a launch-pad to explore the wonders of the Panoramic Route. But had we stayed longer, we would have spent at least one day to chill and enjoy.
Swallows House is the place where you can relax and unwind. It is safe and the house has the necessary appliances even if there is load shedding. Thank you Monica for the communication during load shedding and power outages.
The house was spotless when we arrived, the view is amazing, everything in the house is modern and up to date. Very comfy beds and huge shower!
Animals on the reserve make it fun for everyone. House is well equipped with all necessary appliances. Room is neat and bathroom is clean and big. Just a pity there is no footpath to the dam. Older and large built people will not be able to get there to see the beautiful view.
The host always communicating even during unusual hours.
Would prefer a small pool as well as a pathway down to the dam, but besides that, it's perfect the way it is! Absolute value for money, very spacious and comfortable.
House is neat and layout is great. Garden is tree-rich with beautiful views over the Da Gama dam.
Very cute place, ideal for a getaway. Good communication from hostess and I will definitely return.
What a lovely place. Would definitely recommend to anyone. Very convenient to have Monica on standby all the time. Wonderful service. Will visit Swallows House again and again.
You really get a lot for the money you pay. Everything works nicely in the house and is properly equipped with everything we needed. We had a great time sitting by the fireplace in the evening and also had a great barbecue on the veranda with a beautiful view of the water. Large rooms with comfortable beds and beautiful bathrooms as advertised. There was also an alarm system for our safety. I don't think we will look for other accommodation again if it is available.
The house was lovely and neat. It was a very comfortable stay. It was also very central to all our outings. The owners were fantastic letting us know everyday if there was planned power outages and the times. If we had any questions there was always a speedy response. We would definitely stay here again.
Nice close game park for day visit. Had a great time with the family. Very quiet and safe. No DStv so just good quality family time.
This is the best self catering unit we have ever stayed in. The host, Monica, was incredible from start to finish. The cabin is neat, clean, private and quiet, and has everything you could possibly need. We loved every minute of our stay and would highly recommend Swallow House to all couples. This is the perfect place to escape to and rediscover yourself.
The house is beautifully clean, very comfortable and everything you need is there. The hostess made us feel very welcome, kept us informed and was extremely accommodating. The location is beautiful, the surroundings peaceful and it's the perfect place to seek peace of mind.
Clean, great views, safe. Great place to stay.
The owner really went the extra mile to make us feel at home and welcome. Beautiful decor and very nice view.
The only downside is the nearby road and road noise that you hear 24 hours a day. Otherwise it's great!
Will definitely make a reservation again.
The place is very clean and very safe, you completely forget about everything and are close enough to Sabie and Graskop if you want to experience the adventure of those areas.
Close to some nice attractions.
The area was breathtaking and beautiful. Staff were ever so friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend it for a peaceful destination.
The house is well situated with a view over the dam. Everything you need is there. Air conditioner was a bonus.
Very clean and tidy! Will definitely visit and recommend Swallows House again!
Swallows House is an ideal venue for relaxing and distressing from noise of the world. Ideal for family or with friends or partner. It has all the facilities for a self-catering guesthouse. It boats beautiful views of the lake on the balcony.
Swallows House is a beautiful, neat and comfortable holiday home in a very beautiful setting. Everything was fine upon our arrival. We could rest wonderfully and listen to the osprey in the morning. Places to visit are just around the corner. We would very easily recommend and choose Swallows House again if we come to holiday in the area.
We spent 5 idyllic days at Swallows House with our 2 adult children. The house is ideally situated with a lovely view of the dam from the very comfortable stoep hammock. The colony of mongoose that greeted us on our first day was a treat as were the monkeys that entertained us most mornings! Monica's decor style and attention to detail makes for an incredibly comfortable home from home experience with a gourmet kitchen well-equipped with everything we needed. Swallows House is well situated for a day visit to the Kruger National Park and surrounding tourist sites. We had a lovely time and wouldn't hesitate to recommend staying at this little piece of paradise.
Everything so tasty. Open plan lets you breathe. The tranquility is overwhelming. We will definitely go again!
It really is the place if you just want to relax and explore the area. The house is well equipped with everything that you may need. Just bring your own food and fire wood.
Swallows House is a lovely home to relax in and just chill. The house is very well equipped with good crockery and kitchenware. Beautiful, durable furniture and good quality linen contribute to making it a special place. We had a problem with DStv which was immediately addressed and solved by Monica.
We as a family really enjoyed it, we absolutely just rested while we had a beautiful view. This is one of the best places we have ever visited. It has a very "homey" feel. The unit is very neat, the only problem is that the roof fans are noisy and the set speed is also just broken. The other suggestion is that only a sharper light is placed outside for grilling.
The place was too beautiful!
Peaceful in nature, close to everything but far enough so I could relax. Recommended.
Big house, beautiful patio, restaurant on site. Spa for treatments, sunset cruise on the Da Gama Dam. Walking paths with beautiful birdlife.
Dit was vir ons 'n fantastiese wegbreek - Hulala Lakeside Lodge kan miskien net bietjie strenger wees oor geraas, aangesien daar 'n huis was wat verskriklik geraas het.
When we entered the house, we knew we were going to have a good time here. The house is tastefully furnished, everything works and is very clean. The environment is very quiet, nature right up to the house. Lots of birds to look at. Staff of the lodge very friendly and helpful, enjoyed delicious meals at hotel. The spa was very refreshing. Can recommend Swallows House anytime.
Always a joy to come here. Very relaxed and private.
I will definitely recommend this place to anyone. It is clean and beautiful and the staff is very professional.
Thank you very much, always quick to respond to inquiries and very helpful.
Swallows House is a beautiful getaway with a breathtaking view. We will definitely go back.
Inrichting van huis is mooi en ruim. Op de compound is een restaurant waar je lekker kunt eten en er is een zwembad. Op het meer kun je varen en vissen. Perfecte uitvalsbasis voor krugerpark en omgeving Hazyview.
I give this place 5 out of 5, the utility supplies and self-catering is good. The room was big enough, the view great and the location is perfect to go around and see the province.
I'd recommend Swallows House anytime. Beautiful accommodation with a great view.
Swallows House is certainly value for money, neat and clean with excellent location - Monica is always friendly and helpful - thank you!
We really like the place, pleasantly surprised!
The house is spacious and well equipped and well planned with beautiful en suite bathrooms. We really enjoyed our stay. The only downside is the audibility of the traffic on the R40 if you sit outside on the deck.
Reception was very unprofessional and rude. Got it with Monica.
Amazing views and very peaceful. House was just perfect.
The fact that we had a 36 hour power cut due to an estate power box giving problems dwarfs all the good qualities of the accommodation. The resort manager's communication with us about the problem and progress with the repairs was extremely lacking. Furthermore, there was no inquiry from his side about how he could assist us. Eg supply of candles, supply of fridge facilities, etc. Under normal circumstances we would have been able to enjoy our stay.
Well equipped, spacious and very neat. Very central to explore the surrounds and visit the Kruger Park.
Thank you very much for an exceptional cozy house with everything we need. My husband and I really enjoyed the clean and tidy nest! Many thanks to LekkeSlaap and Monica for a wonderful visit!
Very helpful office staff. Security officers very helpful and particularly friendly. House very well furnished, with everything needed. Very comfortable and convenient.
Thank you, it was an awesome experience! The help of LekkeSlaap and the good service make everything easy and enjoyable.
We thoroughly enjoyed the five days in Swallows House. The house is very well equipped with everything one needs. We recommend it boldly.
Had a wonderful stay. House has everything one needs. Just not a washing machine, but a tumble dryer.
Da Gama Dam is an amazing place to stay at. Swallows House is ideally situated on the hill giving you an amazing view everyday you stay there. Very peaceful and tranquil. Exactly what we needed. The house itself was well stocked with décor and furniture. Thanks TravelGround.
