Away in the hills lie our three hidden chalets… each of them uniquely furnished and decorated – and each of them styled to match the creature after which they are named.

Gemsbok: named after the first big game animal seen on the reserve, a magnificent Gemsbok bull.

Nguni: a celebration of South Africa’s own unique breed of cattle; the hardy, almost indestructible beasts that not only drew the wagons that once crisscrossed the land, but which have for centuries formed the basis of an African currency and symbol of wealth.

Springbok: Arguably the animal most representative of wildlife in the Karoo and a reminder of our own blossoming flock!

Each chalet is en-suite, has a mini fridge, as much coffee and tea as you can drink, and certainly the most magnificent view on earth!

Down in the valley, a short walk from the chalets you’ll find our very unusual base camp, based on the original old workers cottage that was not long ago the only building on the reserve, albe it broken down and derelict at the time.

Today you’ll find a magnificent deck with
a central fireplace, an interior dining area which doubles as our library and guest reception area – alongside it, our exclusive bar where you are welcome to help yourself to whatever you fancy along with all the ice, cooldrinks, fruit juices and of course hot beverages you might ever dream of!
Here is where we spend our evenings, and of course meet for breakfast!

Throughout the lodge we have endeavoured to
create a strong sense of an African identity…

We may be in the Cape, in the little Karoo, but this is still Africa,
and we never let ourselves forget it!

 
One thing is for certain.... you will be back!
