White House Lodge

Our Guest House sits among ten hectares of mountain top with beautiful vistas of the surrounding farmlands and other hills and mountains, particularly Legogote or "The Lion Head" - a remnant of a long extinct volcanic core.

The indigenous sour bushveld trees and shrubs surround the lodge as do around one hundred species of bird, which are the only source of sound to disturb your peace.

Closer to our home are the local places of interest, a mere thirty minutes drive taking you into the world renowned Kruger National Park, while the reverse direction, and in the same driving time, finds you up on the Escarpment at 1400m altitude, which is the southern most tip of the Great Rift Valley escarpment, where you will find Blyde River Canyon, the second deepest canyon in the world, Gods Window, and of course the gold rush village, now a national monument, of Pilgrim's Rest.

We have seven en-suite rooms and one new built luxury cottage with own lounge and private veranda if you wish, all with television incl. South African DSTV, while the public facilities include our huge swimming pool, with Lapa and Sauna, and two terraces for relaxing, while inside our dining room is complemented by a lounge and a bar. Sumptuous evening meals are provided, on request, and we pride ourselves on our German and Turkish specialties, together with a selection of South African wines.

Finally, we can assist you with car hire, organized tours, and with transfer services from both our nearby airport and Johannesburg's International Airport which is a three-and-a-half hours drive away. Direct flights to and from Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg and Vilanculos/Mozambique are now scheduled from our nearby international airport. Maputo is coming soon, directs flights from London, Central Europe, Perth/Australia, North America and China are in planning.
