fantastic house in the middle of nature. We enjoyed the stay and the meeting with elephants, impalas, warthogs, etc. and many brightly colored birds at the watering hole.
We were here for nearly 5 weeks. The lodge lived up to all our expectations. Totally private and surrounded by the Kruger bushveld and were visited by 3 types of antelopes and other animals and many birds in the garden. The staff and owner were extremely accommodating and responded very quickly to any queries and offered very good advice on where to go and what to see. We didn't want to leave and will definitely return
We had a wonderful stay here for a few days while we toured through Kruegar. We loved the remote feeling and the views of nature and animals, birds, from the porch. Staff were very helpful especially showing us to our house when we arrived after hours, and we had great massages one day. We would recommend this to friends and would love to stay here again.

Nice lodge well Placed with Nice Views
We Stayed here for Three nights and the lodge was well maintained and had good views of the Bush, although we only got to see a Leopard tortoise but plenty of Birds. We had breakfast on a couple of mornings and the disappointing thing about this was, it seemed that they could not wait to clear up and get you out .
On the house keeping, the outside were we sat was always covered in dead moths from the night before and the cleaners always left them there, so by day two it was left to me to clear up the bodies, and there were lots of them. Very Nice couple that ran the place, but that was not enough to want us to come back.

Luxury home in the bush next to the Kruger Park
Yingwe is a luxury home in the Silonque Bush Estate. The home has 2 bedrooms with a private bathroom next to the bedroom. There is a big kitchen en living room including all the equipment you need to feel at home (airco, microwave and standard oven, Satellite TV etc). There are a lot of nice spots to sit and relax outside the house and the Estate has a very nice swimming pool. You can also have a breakfast or diner (not all year) near to the swimming pool. You are very close to the Kruger National Park so you have the possibility to spot animals like Giraffs, Kudu's, Spingbok, Impala's, Monkeys and even Elephants next to your house. The people at Silonque Bush Estate are very friendly and always willing to help. There are enough possibility's to book Safari's or to visit interesting things in the neighborhood. We were a there for almost a week and we had a very nice and relax time in the house and at the estate.

Wat a great location in the middle of the Bush!
It was not only the location. Also the views, the house, the whole environment, and so much animals we have spotted during our vacation.
The house is nice en very relaxt to stay in with a fantastic view over The Kruger Park and the drinking place nearby for the animals.
It was for us a vacation we will not forget.
We will come back!!

Quiet, luxury and friendly
We arrived at the reception and were very warm welcomed by Laura & Pascal, the managers of the resort. They took us to the beautiful house. We had a beautiful view and were visited several times by local animals, like warthogs, impala's and waterboks. At night we could hear the lions roar in the Kruger NP. The children loved the swimming pools. It was a bumpy ride to get there, but worth it!
