Walking Tall Private Bush Retreat

We enjoyed our stay. The "tame" wildlife, not scared of humans, walking around the house, was the highlight! We had warthog, giraffe, kudu, "tarentaal", mongoose and "rooibok" visiting us. Riding around, we also saw zebra. Enjoyed the Oasis restaurant on the Crocodile River. Here we saw crocodile, hippos and a huge "likkewaan". The house, we felt, had two problems. One. The spa.The heater, could not be set and the tap filling it up has no pressure.This all resulted in a constant battle to get the water acceptable. Two. The road. The house is close to the main road. We could not sleep late one morning. At six the very loud pedestrians and busses, cars and trucks woke us up and disturbed the peace. We could only hear the river,and the hippos from about 19h30 at night, when the road's noise subsided.(keeping in mind, we were there over a midweek, weekends might be better. And we do live on a smallholding, so we are not used to any road noise around us. It is very quiet where we stay). Other wise, we thank the owners, specially for the extra hour.(The house is beautiful and well equipped for a self catering house). The field security office for their excellent service. The friendly staff, at the little shops. Marloth Park is well worth a visit. 

Loved it. Everything was perfect, bar one or two minor issues, everything was great. Jacque was very helpful when we asked. Place was clean, we enjoyed the house, surroundings and the little things that were thought of by the owner certainly make it a great place. We will certainly be back.

What a nice place. Walking Tall its clean and we enjoy seeing zebra and giraffe next to our house. We are willing to come for a week now.

Walking Tall met all the expectations of everyone and the house was perfectly situated and it is an ideal location to spend a short break but also a longer holiday. The park is lovely and waking up to zebra's and giraffes walking past your front door is amazing. The house is ideal for more than one family and everything that was required was available. For sure a joy to have stayed in this house and would recommend this to anyone !!!

Lot of miscommunication to collect the keys. Owner not reachable on his number. DSTV not working until we checked out... Few light were not working as well....

The place was perfect, everything was in order and we had a wonderful time.

We had a wonderful relaxing time away from the everyday "HUZZ&BUZZ". Special thanks to Jacque for this lovely place!

Walking Tall was our place to stay for little more than 1 week in August. Great place to see animals from the balcony or terrace (a herd of zebras came visiting, kudus and warthogs were everyday-visitors), but also a great place to relax after a safari in Kruger.

Walking Tall is the ideal place if you want to see many giraffes, zebras and warthogs! You can almost touch the giraffes from the top balcony. In the evening we could have a relaxing moment in the Jacuzzi whilst being surrounded by zebra. Lovely accommodation. Everything you need is there and only 300m walk from the Crocodile River. Thank you for making our break so nice and relaxing!

I loved the stay there... the house... the experience and every little perk that comes with staying at walking tall. I don't regret choosing walking tall as my holiday destination... chances are I will go back!
