Situated 14km north of Barberton on the R38 Kaapmuiden road, within the Barberton Mountainlands nature reserve. Ideal for birding depending on season. Out of town and no suburban noise. Accommodation is provided on a bed and breakfast basis (full English breakfast)) with dinner on request provided you advise us before arrival if we should prepare dinner for you. Malelane Gate (Kruger National Park) is only about an hours drive from Old Coach Road and within an easy reach for a day visit. For an early start, we will do a breakfast pack for a day visit. Alternatively, take the day out to explore the Barberton Geo Trail and learn more about the geological history of Earths formation. Barberton is a UNESCO World Heritage site for geology and is famous for the greenstone formations.

    The offer of a meal at night to avoid having to go out and look for somewhere to eat. We could relax after a lot of driving. Adriaan was a warm and friendly host.

    Wonderfully peaceful location away from any towns and traffic. The perfect base to explore the Barberton mountains from. The breakfast, and if you choose it the evening meal are excellent. Adriaan the host is a Star and will definitely help you if...
