Me having loadshedding at home in Aliwal North, I make use of the Orange Gecko restaurant quite often at night!
Food is always well prepared, please try the Portugese peri-peri livers and flush it down with an ice cold draft beer!
One of the better hanging-out spots for families in town!!

The room was great and comfortable, and reception amazingly friendly. Didn't get to eat in the restaurant but the pub does need a little attention. The waitress was amazing, but had to send steak back to get grilled correctly and what is advertised as grilled veggies is in fact frozen veggies done in a white sauce.

Brilliant! So many places say pet friendly, but try and get overnight accommodation while traveling with 3 big Labradors, nightmare. Luckily, Riverside lodge can accommodate you, and they are really pet friendly. Beautiful big area for your dogs to run and relax next to the river. Rooms and beds were nice and warm, staff friendly, all round enjoyable stay.
Thank you very much, we enjoyed our stay very much.
