This 4733-hectare property is well developed with excellent lodge and accommodation facilities overlooking the vast Kalahari. The lodge cannot be viewed in isolation, as it was planned from the start to harmonise with the spirit of the environment. The property embraces an area of 4733 hectares and is located about 50 km from the Augrabies waterfalls and 120 km from Upington. This property is situated close to the Augrabies Falls National Park which is an arid area that stretches along the Orange River and stocked with various game species. Plans are in place to incorporate this property with the Augrabies Falls National Park, but the owner will retain its own title. That will boost the already large numbers of international visitors to the lodge and facilities. A 100-hectare section of the acreage (separate title) is rezoned to a business and accommodation site where you may build various chalets for the exclusive benefit of the owner. The 5-bedroom thatched main lodge consists of spacious twin and double rooms fitted with mini-bar, tea and coffee making facilities to enjoy drinks on the balcony.
