Description
Escape the maddening crowd and big city lights. Come and catch your breath, relax and embrace the beautiful outdoors at Goxhill Trout Lodge. Set on a productive working farm just outside Himeville in the spectacular Southern Drakensberg, Goxhill Trout Lodge offers comfortable self-catering accommodation. With two large trout dams on the farm, guests also have access to excellent trout fishing and other fun water-based activities.

The lodge is a historic farm with a 100 year old Gracious Lady. The Kingfisher and Fish Eagle cottages are available as limited self-catering units in a beautiful garden, and we also have a number of beautiful campsites with upmarket facilities. Self-catering facilities include a microwave oven, fridge and freezer, cutlery, crockery, kitchen utensils, and braai facilities. All children welcome. Access to the Internet is available and laundry service are available on request.

Goxhill boasts the largest lake in the Underberg area. The Polela River which runs through the lake provides a natural breeding environment for trout. Fishermen have the opportunity of pitting their skills against wild trout, providing an exciting challenge. In addition, there is a second smaller dam on the farm managed by the Underberg Himeville Trout Fishing Club.

Gox Hill Trout Lodge in Himeville Reviewed by Yvonne Smith, South Africa on . <p>The stay was lovely.  I did notice the linen and blankets were dirty and dusty.  There were a lot of flies inside.  The unit and cutlery were dirty.  However the setting and fishing was awesome.  We watched the cows being milked very good for our little guy.  The farm manager was very informative regarding the whole process.</p>
Gox Hill Trout Lodge in Himeville Reviewed by Brett Butler, South Africa on . Camped at Goxhill Was passing thru Himeville and needed a safe spot to pitch my tent. Booked on Safarinow a couple days before was easy and responsive. The evening cost me 50 Rand what a bargain, used directions given found Goxhill easily. Campsite was adequate, with electricity and the ablutions were spotless with bath and shower option. I was also offered use of the communal kitchen and fireplace. nice touch for cold winter nights. The evening was pleasant, a bit of noise from the cows sleeping adjacent to me but way better than that of a noisy highway! All in all it exceeded my expectations and great value for money with a hassle free booking experience.
