The Koro Lodge at the Bushmans Kloof Wilderness Reserve
Clanwilliam Accommodation
Western Cape Lodge Accommodation
The Bushmans Kloof Wilderness Reserve & Retreat is situated 270 kilometres from Cape Town in South Africa's Western Cape Province. This exclusive country retreat is a 5-star ecological oasis, uniting luxury and nature, providing the ultimate wilderness experience. It is home to many endangered species of fauna and flora and unique for over 130 San Bushman rock art sites. The Bushmans Kloof Wilderness Reserve & Retreat is a member of the prestigious Relais & Chateaux Hotel Group and is recognised as one of South Africa's Natural Heritage Sites.
The Bushmans Kloof reserve protects one of the largest private herds of Cape Mountain Zebra in the world. The Cape Mountain Zebra is an animal saved from the brink of extinction in the wild. It is identified by its bold black-on-white stripes - as opposed to its savanna-dwelling cousin, the Burchell's Zebra, which has extra brown stripes, and a cream undercoat. Through the wildlife reintroduction programme the magnificent Bontebok, Red Hartebeest, Grey Rhebok and Ostrich can now also found at Bushmans Kloof.
Smaller creatures such as the Bat-Eared Fox, African Wildcat, Cape Fox, Caracal (African Lynx), Cape Clawless Otter, Baboon, Rock hyrax (Dassie), Klipspringer, Aardwolf and Aardvark also roam the plains and rocky outcrop of this vast reserve.
The Koro Lodge at Bushmans Kloof: Private Exlusive Villa
The luxurious Koro Lodge at the Bushmans Kloof Wilderness Reserve used to be a farmhouse, nestled in the reserve, that has been completely renovated and transformed into a spectacular intimate villa, surrounded by open vistas of wilderness and wildlife, joining ultimate luxury with nature. This exclusive country retreat is ideal for families and friends and provides the perfect, relaxed and welcoming space to enjoy the complete wilderness adventure and complete tranquillity and privacy.
The Koro villa is comfortably and luxuriously styled with beautiful, handcrafted South African objects and furnishings, in natural vibrant earth colours and is designed and equipped to provide every need and service to satisfy. It boasts every amenity for both adults and children, from a fully equipped kitchen and bar, flat screen TV's, independent cable channels, DVD players, music, games, air conditioning, underfloor heating and wi-fi.
The two sun filled master bedrooms with private terraces, uninterrupted views of the reserve, have en-suite bathrooms and every luxury to touch and please the senses.
The living room at the Koro Lodge features ideal space to relax and unwind, and for cosy dinners by the warmth of the open fireplace for those cold winter nights. The large terrace surrounds the house, inspiring the name "Koro," which means "open vistas" in the San language.
Guests are invited to inhale the magnificent views morning, noon and night, whether sipping a cocktail from the refreshing rock swimming pool, or feasting from delicious choices from the outdoor braai and the homemade delicacies specially prepared for you.
A cleverly designed loft area, upstairs from the main living area, comfortably sleeps 4 children of all ages, while allowing them to sleep, rest and play in private, yet within close proximity to their parents. Independent but within metres from the main villa, is a fun and practically furnished family living space, with an en suite bathroom accommodating 2 teenagers or adults. It is fully equipped to entertain with a flat screen TV, games, DVD's, independent cable channels, underfloor heating and air conditioning.
Located approximately 2 kilometres from the main lodge, and within easy walking distance of one of the main dams, the deluxe Koro Lodge at Bushmans Kloof is completely private and includes the services of its own Chef and Guide for the duration of the guest's getaway.
A special fun fulfilled children's programme is offered to entertain and stimulate, in addition to exciting outdoor family or group activities such as mountain biking, canoeing (equipped with life jackets), hiking, star gazing, and swimming.
