Bushveld Venue

One of the unique aspects of The Bushveld venue is its location within the Mabula Nature Reserve. This means that the property is not fenced, allowing the various animals of the reserve to freely roam the area. Imagine waking up to the sound of lions roaring in the distance or spotting elephants grazing nearby. This proximity to wildlife offers guests an authentic bushveld experience that is hard to match. Self-catering accommodation is offered in a Farmhouse, a Family Suite Lodge, and a romantic Sunset Cabin. The stunning Farmhouse can comfortably accommodate 14 guests, with seven en-suite rooms all located within one spacious lodge. This layout allows for shared, unforgettable memories to be made.

Additionally, there is a boma with a braai, an outdoor ‘Kaia’ kitchen with a braai, a fireplace, a dining room, and a sitting area. There is also an outdoor dining table situated next to the kitchen. The kitchen has a large fridge, freezer, stove with an oven, microwave, and toaster. Experience the awe-inspiring sunset over the bush from our beautiful open viewing deck.
