This centrally located, neat, fully furnished 2 bedroomed garden flat is only 6km From KNP Malelane gate. The property has solar panels, inverters & batteries, gas geysers, gas hob and gas stove, so you can rest assured that load shedding will NOT affect your stay, if you are on a business trip, there are no interruptions, no reason to worry about the Eskom Load shedding schedule, everything stays on! Long term stays can be arranged. Full size Fridge/Freezer, indoor outdoor dining areas, comfy lounge, books and games are all provided to make it a "home from home" stay.
An ideal base to explore the Lowveld and Panorama route, with the Mozambique and Swaziland borders both a short drive away, and of course the world famous Kruger National Park Malelane entrance gate around 6km away.
For keen golfers we have our own beautiful Malelane Golf Course and the exclusive Leopard Creek golf courses only 6km away, not forgetting the 9 hole Skukuza golf course in the KNP.
The property has its own outdoor braai area, as well as a portable Weber braai. Private, undercover outdoor seating is provided to escape from the sun or the rain. There are many fruit trees and guests are encouraged to gather any fruit in season for their own consumption. Visiting birds love the trees and plants & we have quite a few regular visitors. The unit is serviced daily, Monday to Saturday, but not on Sundays or public holidays.
Guests have full access to the swimming pool (we provide pool towels). Our fibre Wi-fi is free & unlimited. The Smart TV enables you to log in to your personal apps, you can also log in to your own DSTV Streaming account, no need to miss out on any of your favorite programs.
