Description

Syringa Sands Forest Cottage is situated on the Kransberg plateau in the malaria-free Waterberg in Limpopo. It is halfway between Vaalwater and Thabazimbi, 38 km from the Marakele National Park gate, and 14 km from the Welgevonden South Gate and Kololo Lodge. The cottage is the perfect destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.

The self-catering cottage is tucked away in the forest and is suitable for 4 guests. It offers 2 bedrooms, each with a queen-size and a single bed. One of the bedrooms features a small desk to work or study. The open-plan living area with kitchen leads out to a covered verandah. The kitchen is well-equipped with a dishwasher, fridge-freezer combination, gas stove and microwave. The lounge features a large fireplace and 2 daybeds which can accommodate children on request. The bathroom has a shower, basin and toilet and there is a second toilet. A utility area with a washing machine is also available.

The game farm is a place of peace and tranquility, an opportunity to switch off. However should guests need to work, e-mail or study, 4MB/ps airfibre has been installed. Guests will need to bring their own devices and chargers.

In case of loadshedding, the lighting in the lounge, kitchen and bedrooms is solar operated, the Wi-Fi runs on a 2 hour battery and there is a gas stove in the kitchen.

The outside braai area is the ideal spot to enjoy sundowners and relax around the braai. Wildlife, including kudu, eland, zebra and giraffe, roam the farm freely and the nearby wetland is a good spot to look for a variety of bird life.

Explore the farm on foot or mountain bike, game drives are available on request. On-site parking is available at the workshop which is attached to the back of the cottage. Please remember to bring firewood or briquettes and drinking water.
