We stayed at Cranford for the Midmar weekend. Although the view is magnificent and the cottages are quaint and clean, the quality of food is poor and having to pay full rate for children under 12 is a bit steep, especially when the breakfasts were under catered and very little was available. Will definately not be returning nor will we... More

My husband and I were invited to a wedding at Cranford Country Lodge. When we were told that we had been reserved accommodation at the venue itself we were nervous as to what the cost might be, we were however so pleasantly surprised as the rate per head was very reasonable. We were even more pleasantly surprised when we arrived... More

I stayed at Cranford for a wedding of my niece. My experience with the venue was good and bad. Let me begin with the bad. The management I think the lady is Alexandra Drew (daughter of the owners) was a bit offish, maybe it had a lot to do with the culture shock of hosting non-whites. The warm atmosphere I've... More

We have just spent 5 lovely days chilling out at Cranford! The cottages are fairly old and quaint but well equipped and had everything we needed and were cosy and comfortable. The view from our bedrooms and lounge was of the paddocks and dam and what a lovely view to wake up to! Some of our party went on some... More

Cranford Country Lodge is located on a beautiful farm, complete with horses and lush green veld. Unfortunately, signage to it is fairly poor making it... More
