Hornbill Self-Catering Chalet

Getaway for families

Nestled in the heart of nature, this comfortably furnished two-bedroom self-catering chalet (queen bed & twin beds) is the perfect retreat for families or friends seeking privacy and relaxation.

The open-plan living space includes a fully equipped kitchen, inviting lounge, and dining area – all leading out to a private balcony with breathtaking views of the surrounding indigenous forest and tranquil wetlands.

A standout feature of this chalet is the private boma tucked into the forest, ideal for cosy evenings around the fire with your favourite drinks and a sizzling braai. For added convenience, a second entertainment deck has been added near the chalet, complete with comfortable seating, a Weber braai, and a family-sized wood-fired hot tub.

The full bathroom includes both a bathtub and separate shower.

Sleeps 4: One queen-size bed in the main bedroom and two single beds in the second bedroom.

Reconnect, unwind, and make unforgettable memories in this peaceful bush setting.
