Hi JacquesOur stay at Mattanu was absolutely wonderful and you all went out of your way to make it a very special experience for us. As both my husband and I still regret not having become vets,  we enjoyed hearing of your dads experiences and appreciated the time he took to show us around and give us an insight into what goes on at the farm.  The third member of our party, Mr Green is from Canada and has never been south of the equator, so the experience of the game drive, sleeping in a “tent” and then being amongst the buck was as he put it, “unforgettable”.Thank you to all concerned and may I take this opportunity of wishing you every success with the lodge, I have no doubt you have a winning recipe there and so should have a wonderful and thriving lodge.Thanking you and all involved once againKind regards  Heather RaymondPlettenberg Bay – South Africa   

Hi Jacques Just a note to say thank you for having us to stay on Saturday.  Your lodge is excellent and compares with some of the best I've seen - you'll no doubt do well and many people will enjoy what you have to offer at Mattanu.  The tented accommodation was great, and for us who wanted a weekend getaway, the under floor heating, air con and spa bath all added to making the getaway extra special.  The food & wine were excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed the game drive.  You have great game and your breeding projects make everything all the more interesting.Many thanks once more and all the best.  We hope to see you again soon.  Craig & Karin Bailey – Australia 25/5/08 

Absolutely stunning. The best service in South-Africa. The food was amazing. Quad bikes were the best game drive ever  Gareth and Elzanne Edwards – London 29/11/07

Good afternoon, Jacques.  I’m safely back at home, and wanted to thank you for a wonderful stay.  You and your family provided me with memories and stories that have amazed my family and friends.  The accommodations, food, adventures, and company were all wonderful, and I look forward to recommending colleagues to visit the reserve, as well as send media for future press trips.  Elizabeth Ninomiya , North America-29/10/08
