The manor's generous proportions mean there's space for everyone to find their perfect spot, whether that's the well-stocked bar for serious sundowner sessions, the spacious lounge for afternoon reading, or the large swimming pool for cooling off between game drives. The dining room accommodates the entire party comfortably, whilst the sun deck and barbecue area provide excellent venues for alfresco dining. The indigenous gardens that surround the property add a lovely touch of local flora to the otherwise decidedly English architectural sensibilities, creating a uniquely South African interpretation of Edwardian grandeur.
Five air-conditioned bedrooms – three kings and two kings/twins – each offer their own private veranda overlooking the carefully tended gardens and spectacular valley beyond. The rooms maintain the manor's historical charm with high ceilings and period-appropriate finishes, whilst modern conveniences ensure your comfort. The en-suite bathrooms feature premium fixtures that wouldn't look out of place in a London townhouse, and each room includes thoughtful touches like in-room refreshment stations and reliable Wi-Fi. The private verandas are perhaps the real stars though, providing intimate outdoor spaces where you can enjoy your morning coffee whilst scanning the valley for wildlife movement.
