2 self-catering cottages (Igababa Cabin sleeps 2 and Madala’s Cottage sleeps 4), a self-catering 1 bedroomed Garden Flat (sleeps 2) and an exclusive campsite with 5 sites on a 74-hectare farm in the eastern Soutpansberg Mountains, 11km north of Louis Trichardt (Makhado), 1km off the N1. The showers and toilets at the campsite are fully electrified – 4 toilets and 2 showers. Sam’s, William’s and Chimangy sites are electrified with cement floored shelters, and Johns & Swiss have braais and water points only. Swiss has its own flushing toilet. The sites are set far apart from each other. There is a small wallow pool for the campers – set apart from the sites. There is a Cyber Cafe with free Wifi, uncapped. Self-service tea and coffee and drinks. The cottages are thatched and very private with outside baths and small wallow pools. Both are fully equipped for self-catering with 4 plate gas stoves, microwaves, braais and all the crockery and cutlery you need. Linen and towels (as well as swimming towels) are provided. Both have indoor fireplaces. All guests need to bring is food and drink. The Flat is also fully equipped for self-catering.

Travel up the N1 from Makhado (formerly Louis Trichardt) to Musina. Approximately 11km from Makhado, 1km after the Avoca Vale Hotel, is a turn-off to your right to Witvlag. This is a gravel road. About 700m along this road, on the left-hand side, you will see a signposted metal gate with wooden edging – WV8. Pass this and then you will come to another gate on your left, this is the entrance for guests to the farm. You need to contact Gail for the code for the gate. Poor network at the gate - best to call from the N1 as you turn off.

RAIN:
Rainy season is between October and March.

ROAD CONDITIONS:
The short piece of gravel from the N1 to the farm is a good gravel road – slippy only after very heavy rain. Roads on the farm are good and even low clearance cars can navigate them. Nearly 1km of good gravel to farm. Good dirt and grassed roads on farm. Please try not to call after 20:00. (Jan-13).
