Dining

Set menus on request, not assumptions.

We don't bundle meals into the room price — you eat when you want it. Order a set-menu breakfast or dinner the day before and we'll cook for you. Otherwise the kitchen in your unit or the supermarkets in Hazyview have you covered.

Breakfast · R60 pp

Continental set menu, on request

A R60-per-person continental breakfast — bread, cold cuts, cheese, fruit, coffee. Arrange it the day before with Anneli.

Dinner · on request

Set menu — local dishes and braai

Tell us how many you are and we'll cook. Expect a fixed set menu of local Lowveld dishes and a proper South African braai. No halaal option available.

Lodge units have a kitchenette if you prefer to self-cater. The backpackers has a shared kitchen. Hazyview town has groceries within a short drive.
