NATURAL CAVE

AN INTIMATE SETTING IN OUR NATURAL CAVE OVERLOOKING A WATERHOLE AND A MAGNIFICENT VIEW OF THE RESERVE LENDS ITSELF TO A GREAT MEAL TIME EXPERIENCE.

This truly natural cave can host up to 40 people at a time. The cave was formed around 300 000 years ago when a huge inland lake slowly drained out. The swirling water weathered away the Sandstone which created this wonderful cave. Apart from it being a wonderful venue, the cave was also utilized by Bantu speaking tribes from about 1 800 years ago as another rain control and spiritual site.

 

The cave's setting is out of a bushveld fairytale. The path leads over a waterfall and curves around the koppie to open up to a magnificent view of Reserve and the cave’s opening. A meal in the cave is always a memorable experience.

BUSH BOMA

A SERENE AND PEACEFUL DINING EXPERIENCE UNDER THE STARRY AFRICAN SKY.

Our bush boma is located a short distance from the main lodge, secluded between natural boulders.

Although electricity is available we rely mainly on candles and paraffin lights.

 

This makes for a real serene and peaceful dining experience under the African starry skies. With the soft light embracing the rocky walls and the boma fire dancing at the African beat, this dining experience will surely make an impression on you.

RELAX WITH FRIENDS AND SHARE YOUR BUSHVELD STORIES AROUND THE FIRE.

The Lodge Boma is cradled between a rocky outcrop and our dining room.

The centralized Boma fire creates a pleasant yet bubbly atmosphere while dining with your friends or colleagues. Many late night bushveld stories have been shared around this social setting.

 

We also host breakfasts at this lovely venue. With the sun creeping through the surrounding rocky outcrops, your day will be refreshed with birds singing while you enjoy your tantalizing breakfast.
