A hidden gem in the heart of the Bushveld. Tjora Lodge – a hidden gem in the heart of the Bushveld. Tjora Lodge is one of those rare places that instantly quiets the noise of daily life. Nestled near the Olifants River in the Hoedspruit area, it offers a perfect balance between rustic wilderness and comfort. From the moment you arrive, the tranquility of the bushveld embraces you—birdsong replaces traffic, and sunsets stretch endlessly across the horizon. The accommodation is exceptional. Every detail reflects care: spotless rooms and a layout that feels open to nature. The bathroom is pristine, the bed inviting, and the kitchen thoughtfully equipped. It’s clear that the hosts take pride in what they do—guests consistently describe them as warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. But what truly sets Tjora apart is its atmosphere. Evenings are defined by golden light over the trees, the distant call of wildlife, and the soothing rhythm of the river. Guests often speak of peace—“music to the soul,” as one reviewer put it—and it’s no exaggeration. Whether you’re sitting on the veranda with a cup of coffee or stargazing by the fire, time seems to pause. Tjora Lodge is not just accommodation; it’s an experience of stillness, beauty, and connection to the land. Perfect for couples or anyone in need of quiet renewal. Once you’ve stayed here, you’ll understand why so many call it “absolutely magical.”

Very neat, new place in the bush near Olifants River with hospitality, 10/10. Very, very neat and very nice stay. The unit is spacious, large bathroom, dressing unit and large sleeping area. Lovely veranda overlooking the sunset and bushveld and animals, you also hear the babbling of the Olifants River at night. Neat braai and swimming area with more than enough space. Juanita is a fantastic host, she knows how to make you feel at home and comfortable. We played golf at Hoedspruit, Drakensig which is about 33 km away. This place is a piece of paradise in the bushveld among wild animals. Located near Hippo Pools of old. We will definitely go again.

Baie netjies, nuwe plekkie in die bos naby Olifantsrivier met gasvryheid, 10/10. Baie, baie netjies en baie lekker gebly. Die eenheid is ruim, groot badkamer, aantrek eenheid en groot slaap woonarea. Lieflike stoep wat uitkyk oor sonsak en bosveld en diere, jy hoor ook die gekabbel van Olifantsrivier saans. Netjiese braai- en swemarea met meer as genoeg spasie. Juanita is 'n fantastiese gasheer, sy weet hoe om jou tuis en gemaklik te laat voel. Ons het gholf gespeel op Hoedspruit, Drakensig wat ongeveer 33 km weg is. Hierdie plekkie is 'n stukkie paradys in die bosveld tussen wilde diere. Geleë naby Hippo Pools van ouds. Ons sal beslis weer gaan.

Unbelievable. It was absolutely magical. Hosts were very hospitable and the unit was immaculate. The sunsets were beautiful and the buck came almost to our doorstep to eat, which was very special. Highly recommend and will definitely go again. Everything one would need for a perfect getaway.

Excellent. I had a very pleasant business stay at Tjhora Cottage. The cottage is clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, providing a quiet and relaxing environment that made it easy to focus on work while also enjoying the beautiful surroundings. I especially want to commend the owners for their excellent and constant communication. From booking through to check-out, they were proactive, responsive, and ensured that everything ran smoothly — which made the stay seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend Tjhora Cottage for anyone visiting Hoedspruit for business or work-related travel. The combination of a peaceful setting and attentive hosts made this a truly positive experience.

Peace of mind. Very quiet and peaceful. The sound of the river is music to the soul.

Sielsrus. Baie stil en rustig. Die gedruis van die rivier is musiek vir die siel.
