"Thank you for a stunning place with spotless chalets and beautiful gardens. It is a great stopover!!"

Woodlands Stop over Lodge was beautiful and very clean."

"What a wonderful suprise after a long day on the road. Friendly staff, beautifull rooms, well thougt out kitchen space. More than anybody could ask for.Will be back,worth more than just one night.Not just a stop over..."

"What a stunning place. Stayed in the deck room and it was wonderful. People very friendly. Would recommend it for any one."

"Allenfalls fŸr einen Zwischenstop geeignet,

sehr unfreundlicher Empfang an der reception.

FŸhlten uns ziemlich allein gelassen.Ansonsten hŸbsch gelegen und sauber"

"Beautifully appointed cottages. Great stopover!"

"Great stopover point. well appointed chalets and spotless. Basic available and even some prepared food can be bought. "

"We were pleasantly surprised of the facilities and accommodation (Camp Chalet). We had planned to get food from town but instead found we could buy pre cooked meals, drinks and firewood at reception. Can recommend this. Definately added to our list of preferred stopovers."

"We stayed at Woodlands Stop Over on our way to Kasane, and on the return trip, as Woodlands is conveniently situated for this. We stayed in a chalet whichwas a very nice room set in lovely surroundings. Staff very pleasant and friendly. Well worth the stop over."

"On face value we booked at Woodlands as a stop over on our way in and out of Botswana realizing it was a chance we took. Gladly, all our expectations were surpassed.

"We stayed twice in a chalet at Woodlands. Perfect. Clean, neat, with everything that one needs. Convenient 'braai' facilities. Small shop close to sparkling swimming pool.  Campsites with own ablution.  Terrain is spotless, guard at night.  A place not to miss when traveling in Botswa..."

"Dit was die tweede keer dat ons by Woodlands gebly het. Wat 'n fantastiese plek. Personeel baie hulpvaardig en slaapprobleem was onmiddelik in chalet opgelos. Sal beslis aanbeveel . Jasper Muller en gesin."

"Wonderfull"

"We camped one night at Woodlands Stop Over. The staff were very friendly and the ablutions were very neat. All in all a very nice, short stay.

I only had one night stay over there and would like to remain longer. The chalets are decorated with taste and artistic. Clean and tidy. I recommend it highly."

"A Five star experience. Accommodation brilliant. Location brilliant. Staff brilliant."

"Woodlands Stopover is a little piece of very tranquil bush. The chalets are clean and comfortable with well kept braai and seating areas. The campsites look great and we may well consider those on future trips to Botswana. If you have time, more than one night would be well worth it.

The birding is great and the morning chorus is lovely. Very fortunate to see Orange-breasted Bushshrike on nest just outside our chalet!! Special!

Thanks for a lovely venue.

"Our sixth stay at this little oasis! We overnight on the first and last nights of our trips to Botswana. Amenities are excellent and the place is well-manicured and orderly.

Great rest-over en route to your Botswana destination as it is only a few hours from the border. No fridge so take ice in your cooler box! Take away microwave meals are delicious (microwave in the Office only)."

"Lovely and clean. A very comfortable stopover in our roof top tent. "

"The riverside room was really nice with everything we needed and more. A lovely quiet location very close to Francistown. Highly recommended."

"The room was spacious and the beds comfortable and there were some touches of luxury. Whilst the kitchen was very compact, there was everything we needed for an overnight stop."

"We stayed in the two bedroom cottage, which is a delightful place to be. The cottage is very spacious and has a wonderful outside area. We enjoyed our stay very much."

"This is to express our delight with the quality of the accommodation provided to us on 11th August 2014. The braai packs were tasty and more than we could eat. The rooms were perfectly functional and very tastefully furnished.

"This is to express our delight with the quality of the accommodation provided to us on 11th August 2014. The braai packs were tasty and more than we could eat. The rooms were perfectly functional and very tastefully furnished.

The surroundings contributed to a relaxed evening after a long dayÕs driving. Birds a-plenty. No traffic noise. Woken up by the francolins at first light.

I found some nice touches such as the rainwater run off being channeled to the lawns and the bird bath/drinking bowls under the taps."

"Will stay any time at the facility. VERY NEAT and CLEAN and WELL Organized."

"Thanks for ANOTHER great stay. All 7 of us (including 5 newcomers to Woodlands) really enjoyed our stay after the long hot drive from Queenstown. Believe you will be making a walking/birding trail soon. That will be a GREAT addition. "

"We have just stayed here for the 4th time. It is fabulous - wish we could find time to stay longer. Keep it up"

"We loved our stay at Woodlands. It is truly the best place to stay over and prepare for a long journey back home. The bathrooms were the best we had seen and the hidden jewel is the river that flows by the property!"

"We, at last, managed to arrive early enough in the day to see Woodlands properly and have a much needed swim after the long drive from Jhb. Loved the guest cottage. Staff pleasant and helpful. Will definitely stay there again. Thanks."

"What a nice stop over warm welcome clean will make use of Woodlands again."

"Unfortunately, due to car trouble, we arrived late and had to leave early the next day - but the accommodation (on the river) was great. Everything was clean and orderly and the only staff member we saw very helpful. Will definitely stay at Woodlands again. Thanks."

"We arrived at Woodlands at 7pm. On arrival there were 3 staff members in the reception, whom we could barely understand.

"We arrived at Woodlands at 7pm. On arrival there were 3 staff members in the reception, whom we could barely understand. We were told that there were no self-catering facilities even though it is self-catering accommodation. Then having a look at the food they sold, it was small and at an exorbitant price. They have only a kettle and outside braai as facilities and therefore the frozen food we purchased would in no way have been warmed up unless we insisted on a microwave!"

"We loved staying over at Woodlands! What a lovely room and facilities!"

"First class accommodation.

Highly recommendable."

"We arrived late - the reception staff were very friendly and helpful. Bedside lamps would be a useful addition (and en suite mini bathrooms?) but ablution block was clean as were the rooms.

"We arrived late - the reception staff were very friendly and helpful. Bedside lamps would be a useful addition (and en suite mini bathrooms?) but ablution block was clean as were the rooms. Take your own food to cook (if possible) as the small shop is quite expensive - but it was great that it was there in the first place - after a 12 hour drive we didn't feel like driving back into town to look for a restaurant! Hard to take food with you into Botswana! Nice - will stay there again."

"At last - someone who understands that noise is as toxic as polluted water. I enjoyed the stay at Woodlands very much. No music - only clean nature bird calls. Pleasant, peaceful , still!!What a joy - will return there God willing soon!"

"Perfect clean place. Enjoyed the stay."

Woodland Stop Over was our first resting place in a busy program. What a surprise to come across this beautiful place. Bought food at the store and it was fantastic. Friendly people who received us. Keep it up.
