Our first visit to Somabula was very pleasant. Friendly staff, spacious personal campsite—you almost don’t realize you have campers next door. The private bathroom was clean, and we felt safe at night. It was lovely to wake up to birdsong and end the day with jackal howling. We enjoyed the walks and downloaded the bird, mammal, tree, reptile, and frog lists from the website. The variety was impressive, and ticking them off was great fun. I added a few new pages to my nature journal. The fire pit was perfect for ending the day with a relaxing bushveld fire. We’ll definitely visit again.

Had the most amazing and relaxed time here. The campsites are clean, spacious and very safe. Did a drive around the reserve, got lost here and there as I didn't want to use the map but seeing the animals roaming around made the experience worth while. Daniel has the most amazing service as he is easily approachable.

What a Gem! 45 minutes from Centurion. Ideal for a quick break away. Stunning little cottages, very clean. Nature all around you with bird sounds, animals and stary nights.

We camped on the Barbet campsite for the weekend. The bathroom was clean and the sites are far from each other. There are lovely hiking routes and we saw lots of animals. I would recommend this place to someone who loves nature and enjoy peace and quiet camping.

Wonderful experience. The chalet is well equipped (with an outside, functioning kitchen). We especially enjoyed the shower. Everything was clean and tidy. I was surprised by the effort of making the chalet wheelchair accessible (yes, from entrance through to the bathroom and shower). We enjoyed a hike and was thankful for the provided, clear map. We spent the weekend birding (even saw a hamerkop) and watching the game from the comfort of our chalet. The dam is gorgeous. The service is thoughtful and they even asked us afterwards for feedback. Highly recommend.

The house we were in was adequately appointed with all the usual crockery, cutlery, gas cooker, gas fridge, etc. Brilliant view over the hill opposite and a short walk to the dam. We enjoyed sitting on the veranda watching and listening to the sound of nature. The house is open plan. Even though there were four beds, it is perhaps better suited to a family with young children. Bit awkward for two adult couples. Other accommodation is available.
