  A Truly Unforgettable Place – We had a wonderful stay at the lodge—truly an unforgettable experience. My husband Liam and I, together with our friends Liza and Steve, spent three nights here and loved every… read more moment.

The natural surroundings are stunning, and the level of service is exceptional. What stood out most were the thoughtful personal touches from the hosts—being welcomed by wild kudus was magical, and seeing our names written on the door upon arrival made us feel so special.

One of the highlights was a beautifully arranged private dinner in the cottage, which was both intimate and memorable. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive throughout our stay. I especially enjoyed the peaceful early mornings, starting with coffee and a short walk in front of the cottages.

The safari experience was outstanding—well-organised, safe, and truly immersive. We felt cared for at every step.

We felt the hosts Basil and Riette are genuinely kind and really loved what they do. This is a place we will always remember and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and meaningful getaway.

  A perfect oasis just outside Crocodile Gate. 5***** – We recently stayed with Basil & Riëtte @ Foxy Crocodile Bush Londge & Kruger Safari’s and 100% recommend staying with them if you’ll be visiting Kruger NP. It’s perfect… read more for game drives followed by afternoons in luxury accommodation complete with your own private a splash pool to cool off in the afternoon heat. Basil & Riëtte are perfect hosts that looked after our every need. The home cooked meals were absolutely amazing. We had been in the park for a few days, and during our AM game drive, John knew we had seen most the park had to offer so expertly guided us to specifically look for lions, cheetah, leopards, and rhino. I can’t recommend Foxy’s enough. Basil & Riëtte have taken care of every detail and the massive kudu living in the front garden are an added bonus!!

  Wow …… – This was hands down best part of the trip. The room, location, private pool, game drives. I cannot fault anything honestly. Nothing was tooo much for them. We requested a… read more braai meal on our last night and they came through with some pap, best chakalaka, vors, steak and chicken. Definitely coming back with my parents.

  An unforgettable experience, with incredible wildlife, beautiful and comfortable accommodation, and outstanding food – We couldn’t recommend Foxy Bush Lodge highly enough — if you’re planning a stay in Kruger Park, look no further.

From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by… read more kudu, antelope, and wildebeest roaming freely right outside the lodge (see photos). It was such a magical welcome and immediately set the tone for the rest of our stay.

The lodge itself is incredible — spotless, beautifully designed, and wonderfully homely. The bed was huge and exceptionally comfortable. Spending time on the terrace or in the splash pool, watching animals wander by just metres away, was an unforgettable way to relax and soak in the surroundings.

The food was outstanding. Breakfast was brought to us on the terrace each morning, which felt like such a treat, and dinner was equally impressive. The bush braai, especially the T-bone steak with its incredible glaze, was a real highlight.

Basil and Riette were fantastic hosts who truly couldn’t do enough for us. They were warm, attentive, and made us feel completely at home throughout our stay.

The safari departing directly from the lodge each morning was another unforgettable experience and made everything so easy and seamless.

Overall, this was one of the most magical places we’ve ever stayed, and we can’t wait to return.

  Peaceful, perfect location, great staff, great value, and just by the Kruger – We have stayed in many places in South Africa in our yearly trips from the UK. And this lodge is by far the best
