Description
This secluded farm blends perfectly into the natural surrounds of the Eastern Cape Karoo of South Africa, 30km away from the historic town of Cradock and about 250km from the airport in Port Elizabeth.
Your journey of this magnificent game farm begins with a meander alongside a seasonal river with its great diversity of birdlife. Spot the occasional impala, lechwe and numerous sightings of the gracious giraffe. Traverse up the valley thicket, keeping a beady eye open for kudu, waterbuck and mountain rhebok. Arrive on the plateau and take in the breathtaking vistas of the surrounding Winterberg range. Herds of wildebeest and zebra thrive in this habitat. Descending down, herds of eland and red hartebeest are a common sight. Reaching the foothills, you will find the majestic sable and finally onto the Karoo plains to view the pronking springbuck.
The farm offers many other opportunities to develop 4x4 routes, hiking and walking trails, birding and idyllic game viewing.
A well developed road infrastructure and numerous watering points are distributed across the entire property which has a CAE certified perimeter fence.
The climate in this area varies from chilly winters to warm summer days and has an approximate annual rainfall of 350mm. The farm boasts a diverse topography from the sometimes snow-capped mountains to the valley thickets, seasonal rivers and open Karoo plains.
A meticulously selected and master crafted lodge offers 7 uniquely decorated en-suite bedrooms each with their own outside entrance. They blend in with the open-plan spacious entertaining interior with 2 lounges, a 14 seater dining room and a dream kitchen. These flow onto the large deck with a pool.
