BREAKFAST & DINING

For those staying on a Bed & Breakfast basis a sumptuous breakfast is served on the veranda amongst the trees at the Main Lodge. Our breakfasts are known to cause our guests to "skip" lunch...

You won’t lose out should you be doing an early morning safari as we provide you with a breakfast hamper to keep you going.

As we are on the Lowveld Gourmet Restaurant Route we do not do dinners (why compete) and we encourage our guests to take advantage of the gastronomical delights awaiting you locally all within 5 kilometres radius of us.

Summerfield's as well as Oliver's are just 2 award winning restaurants on the Lowveld Gourmet Restaurant Route.

Pioneers Butcher and Grill probably offer the best South African Steak in the Lowveld and also have an excellent wine cellar.
