Good value for money
Rheino Hickman, South Africa

Good value for money and spacious. Nice friendly service by Margaret and her team. If I ever need accommodation in Kaapsehoop again I will start with Hippo Pools.
Good stay

Had a great time staying at Hippo Pools. Everything was very nice and neat and we were very comfortable. Will definitely recommend it to family and friends.
Wild and wonderful
Corrie Hattingh, South Africa
20 June 2011
A very big thank you to Margret and her cook. The food was excellent and the accomodation was just as well. Their friendly smiles did wonders for us. Hippo Pools within the environment of Kaapsehoop is just as free as their wild horses. Just the right medicine for stressed out people.
