This is the worst place I have ever been in my life! I don't know where the other good reviews coming from and I am very disappointed because I based my decision to book this place on them. Trip Advisor should investigate because they sound fake. We feel cheated and ripped off by the owner of this horror house. This... More

In a perfect location for some of Nature's most spectacular efforts nearby, Manie has built a dream castle and filled it with a bewildering assortment of his statues and artwork. Each room of the castle is staggering and the bedrooms extrordinary - we stayed in the Ruby Room complete with 6m high turret bedroom, jungle and spa with a giant... More

We recently booked the entire castle for a murder mystery weekend over halloween. The setting is beautiful in the Panorama route of South Africa's Mpumalanga province, with Kruger park, Bourke's Luck and God's Window all literally just around the corner(s). The castle itself, as one may deduce, is not historic, although it is built from reclaimed materials which give it... More

We stopped here for one night on our way to Kruger - ideally placed between Kruger and the Blyde River Canyon (both a must do in S.Africa). Beautiful rooms, gorgeous food and undoubtedly the best hospitality I have experienced in South Africa. The place itself is amazing and looks every bit as fabulous as the web site. Highly recommended.

The 6 of us arranged to have a "Spook Party" at Flycatcher Castle. Host Danie embraced the project with gusto. When we arrived at the dining area, we were presented with an incredible atmosphere - low lighting, spooky artifacts (Danie is also a sculptor), organ music, cobwebs. The food was spectacularly imaginative, prepared by chef Mo. The service was outstanding... More

This guest house is breathtaking - every bit as gorgeous as it looks on the website. The food was the BEST - every single meal, breakfast and dinner, and the picnic as well. The BYO policy on bringing one's own booze might look like a pain, but it makes perfect sense for everyone, and they will refrigerate or store your... More

What an amzaing experience!! FlyCatcher Castle is situated in Graskop, which was a perfect halfway stop for us to the Kruger Park. It was a really cold misty day that enhanced the castle like feel. It does not feel like you’re even close to a town, very private with a amazing few over the graslands. When we arrived we were... More
