The lodge lies in a natural amphitheater, the original homestead, with its wide verandas, has a classic African atmosphere. The luxurious en-suite rooms accommodate a maximum of only twelve guests. There is a 15 meter pool in the garden, ideal for those needing some exercise or great for kids. It is heated all year round. Extensive lawns and beds of indigenous plants surround the pool and home and there is a wonderful, thatched covered chill out spot with vast sofa beds to relax on during the heat of the day. A wide variety of wildlife frequents the waterhole in front of the house, where horses and dogs abound.
The reserve is one of diverse topography and vegetation, ranging from wide-open plains to beautiful mountainous areas, enabling it to naturally sustain the widest variety of wildlife possible. There are over 40 species of wildlife, including the rare sable antelope, nyala, oryx, eland, giraffe, buffalo, white rhino and well over 300 species of resident and migrant birds. In addition to game drives (guided wildlife viewing in an open game drive vehicle), the reserve offers a safe and secluded environment which allows guests of all ages to enjoy guided bush walks, horse rides and cycling.
The horses are fit, reliable and responsive, providing a choice for both the professional rider and the absolute beginner (you do not need to have riding experience to ride here!). The herd of 45 horses is made up of big thoroughbreds and Arab-Boerperd crosses, and includes some fabulous children’s ponies. Rides are led by two competent guides and the emphasis is on safety at all times. For the enthusiastic rider, you may wish to ride twice daily and turn your trip into a luxury riding safari, alternatively for the less eager riding can be just one of the many activities you can enjoy. Many guests learn to ride here, including children.
This reserve will give your children a life-changing experience. Special activities are laid on for children and teenagers who enjoy getting involved in the running of a game reserve. Children of all ages can join their parents on all activities or can alternatively be taken out separately. Toys and games are available to keep young ones occupied between activities and the lawned gardens surrounding both bush homes create a safe haven for them to play in. Special food and meal times can be arranged, and children are welcome to come to supper in their dressing gowns. While the variety of activities keep all well entertained you will all learn a great deal about wildlife and gain inspiration to last you a lifetime.
