Accommodation | Mountain Getaways

The Mountain is a space which attracts creatives, adventurers, conservationists, dreamers and doers. We are grateful to have the opportunity to be a voice for this unique community through the Mountain Getaways Visitors’ Guide, quarterly Magazine and this Website which serves to remind us once again how privileged we are to be able to spend time in Magoebaskloof where there are mountains instead of malls, spectacular views rather than parkades and silence to replace the sounds of the city.

Under Canvas, Amongst Blooms: AfriCamps’ Premium tents celebrate Spring at Cheerio Gardens

Spring does not arrive quietly at Cheerio Gardens. It spills across the hillside in clouds of pink, white and crimson, gathers along winding paths and catches in the branches of flowering cherries and crab apples.

Where the Water Touches the Sky - Autumn at Stanford Lake Lodge

By the time I sink into the couch, the fire is already crackling and the cabin smells faintly of woodsmoke and pine. My shoes are kicked off near the door, a glass of red in my hand, and outside, the lake has started doing that thing it does at the end of the day – catching the last of the light and throwing it back at the sky. Stanford Lake lies just beyond the deck, long and calm, its surface turning soft pink as the autumn sky fades. Earlier, it was all gold and amber. Now

Tin Town - A Glamping dream taking shape in Haenertsburg

If you wander through Haenertsburg on a quiet morning, the village seems to move at its own slow pace. The main street feels almost unchanged, yet beneath that calm rhythm ideas are always stirring. Over the past few months, a project has been unfolding just above the village centre, something Charmaine and Morné Botha have been creating alongside the Blue Shutter Guesthouse . They bought the house on Plein Street a year ago and transformed it into a small, stylish guesthous
