"Peaceful visit, nice tent."

My husband and I and our two sons (6 and 8 years) stayed for 3 nights in one of Buffalo Drift's luxury tents. It is located on a farm and in a very peaceful environment with poor mobile signal (so you can completely unplug, so to speak) and many thorns (not so nice for little feet). The tent overlooks a still stretch of the river, and one cannot swim there. There is a part of the river that is swimmable a few meters up. We didn't swim, the water didn't move and we were careful because you couldn't see through it. The only other place to cool off is the 'damcuzzi' at the tent which is filled with river water. We were able to cool off, but the boys usually look for more space to play in the water. The 'damcuzzi' can also be heated by a fire and we did that too, and enjoyed it. Just be aware that this is river water, and not clean, clear water. The fact that the tent has real beds in it was very comfortable (even though the bunk bed's mattresses are thin) and we slept well. The big convenience was the bathroom that was built right into the tent. The water was nice and warm (although not very strong in the shower) and there is a toilet connected to a septic tank under the tent. You could smell the tank sometimes and it wasn't always pleasant, but having your own bathroom made up for it. The view from the tent is over the river and you are staring into a few trees, and even though it is in nature, one cannot look far or actually see a sunset or sunrise. The 'kitchen' was ok, most of the cutlery and the pan and the two plate stove are very old. When we wanted a two-point plug, the staff quickly provided it. The water in the tap is undrinkable. Drinking water is provided in a 5l jug. There are a lot of insects at night, so pack some music. I also took a mosquito net and it worked well. We took our bikes, and had quite a few flat wheels due to all the thorns on the farm. There is an off-road bike track that the boys and my husband rode on, but it is not very well maintained. Furthermore, one can only drive on a few dirt roads. (There is another farm, "The Farm" nearby where there is better cycling, but we did not see it ourselves.). Unfortunately, our car's wheel got a nail in it, and we had to replace it. If there is loadshedding after sunset, the taps do not work. The solar panels do provide power if the power is off during the day. There are 4 tents in a row along the river. There is quite a bit of privacy below where the braai is, but you can see each other if you stand on the stoep (deck) of the tent. We could hear the people next to our baby crying at night. The braai/hanging out area downstairs was very nice, you braai in a round steel wheel (?) that stands on the ground. I think the grill could be upgraded to something higher that is more comfortable to grill on. The tent was really nice and all the zips worked well. One feels safe inside. It also rained a bit, and everything inside was dry. Overall a pleasant experience. The staff on the farm are very friendly (specifically Lydia who came to wash our dishes every morning!) and were helpful. There isn't much to do, so go there to switch off.
