St Ives Lodge Venue - Lidgetton

I stayed here in September of 2022 which was great so I decided to stay here again and it was a horrible experience. If you are not familiar with load shedding then you’re out of luck. They don’t tell the the schedules of the load shedding the rooms are pitch black you cannot see anything. They say that they have rechargeable bulbs but it never comes on. Wifi is non existent so we went to reception because we were told it’s good there but there was little to no connection. Shower is hot but then gets cold and hot again. Everyday there was something not working. The owner Wesley is pleasant but David is amazing and is always there when you need him. The receptionist is very rude and obnoxious. She should be trained or fired whichever one comes first. Zebras and animals were beautiful Rooms: 2 Service: 3 Location: 4

I had a great experience at this restaurant. The rooms, service, and location all received a rating of 3 out of 5.

The excellent venue and view Rooms: 2 Service: 2 Location: 5

We loved our short stay at St Ives. We stayed in Silo 1 and it was clean, well laid out with a huge, spacious main bedroom. Fresh milk left in the fridge and wood for a fire added a lovely personal touch. The view was stunning with buck, zebra and wilde beast wandering around in front and horses and donkeys in the paddocks to the side. Our friends enjoyed fishing in the dam and we had a lovely time. Lovely accommodating staff. Conveniently across the road from Piggly Wiggly. Would definitely go for longer next time. The photos don’t really do it justice but to give u an idea…

We visited a lovely venue with a stunning setting on the shores of a lake. The vibe was very tranquil and calming, with the sound of birdsong and the gentle lapping of waves against the shore. The venue had a beautiful reception area overlooking the lake, with a deck that was perfect for taking in the views. There was also a restaurant on the property, but we didn't go there because we had already eaten lunch before we arrived. Location: 4 Hotel highlights: Great view, Romantic
