Steve and I are both animal lovers and love the bush and wild life. We have 4 dogs and 2 cats and numerous free-range chickens. Steve's interest besides farming, is tennis, which he plays as often as he can. We both love bird life and spend many hours with our eyes glued to our binoculars. We are blessed to live close to Kruger National Park and go for day or over-night trips as often as time permits. We hope you enjoy "our little piece of heaven" as one guest described, as much as we do
We are in a farming community, and live only 8kms from White River, with all its wonderful amenities. We are only 28kms from Numbi gate and 45kms from Phabeni gate, the entrance to our beautiful Kruger National Park. There are so many other wonderful Lowveld amenities to visit and explore. For such a little town, we have a diverse array of eateries, from pub grub to fine dining, and wonderful coffee shops. You can take a drive to other little towns beyond White River, which are so picturesque and lead you to places of great adventure or quiet little nooks you can sit and have a meal or a coffee.
