Mount Camdeboo Private Game Reserve by NEWMARK 4 stars

Located in Graaff-Reinet, Mount Camdeboo Private Game Reserve by NEWMARK provides free WiFi, and guests can enjoy a garden, a shared lounge and a terrace.

The restaurant at the lodge serves African, American and South African cuisine. We stayed in Pod 1. We highly recommend the Pods for a truly unique experience. the lodge is beautiful but spending the night on the mountain is unmatchable. It’s a 40 minute drive from the Lodge to the Pods but it’s spectacular.
