Marula Cottage Guest Lodge

We received the warmest welcome from Monika and Dave when we arrived. Magnificent view from deck and our room. Breakfast and dinner prepared by Monika are must try. Room is clean and comfortable with spacious shower. Dogs are friendly and playful. We enjoy our stay and definitely come back again.

We were warmly welcomed by Monika and Dave and there beautiful rescue dogs. It was peaceful. Dinner and breakfast was amazing, you don't need to go anywhere else. Enjoy a wonderful chat with Monika and Dave and get to know them. Room was clean, shower spacious and have all right amenities to make anyone's stay comfortable.

Monika and Dave are brilliant hosts and a perfect couple. The setting is perfect if you want to really get away from things and the views from the balcony are amazing. There are several rescue dogs who are all full of character (Maggie was our favourite!) and definitely great you with wagging tails. There are lots of wildlife to see, particularly birds but our best treat was seeing the bush babies! We ate evening meals (it’s not really close to any restaurants) which were superb and the breakfast definitely set us up for the day. Its close to Marakele National park for day trips.

We had a lovely stay with Monika and Dave and their great dogs. Nice, and clean room, fridge and airco, lots of space to sit outside and great dinner and breakfast. Monika and Dave will do anything to make you feel at home.

The owners Dave and Monika are very friendly. They give you a feeling at home. The dinner they prepare for you is excellent, all fresh. The view from the property is wonderfull and the quietness does wonders.

The property has an outstanding location, with very good facilities and accommodation. Dave and Monika are great hosts. Breakfasts and dinner were also great. The property is conveniently located for Marakele National Park.

We were warmly welcomed by Monika and Dave. The location of the accommodation is beautiful with a great distant view. The food was very tasty. Always everything freshly prepared, varied. The drive with Dave in Marakele NP was beautiful and very informative. The stop for breakfast in a stunning location . An unforgettable time. Many thanks to both

The serenity of the place combined with the hospitality, the outstanding view and the delicious meals, lovingly prepared and arranged by Monika - we felt very much at home after our adventurous drive through Botswana. Thanks Monika and Dave, it was a pleasure meeting you guys and your lovely dogs and staying at your wonderful place.

What an amazing find. I honestly can't find any fault with the spot. The owners are great, as are the rooms and food. You can't ask for a better view anywhere in the country! Of course if you love dogs the friendly locals are an additional bonus!
