"SAFARI LODGES"

Welgevonden Private Game Reserve

Kudu Lodge & Tshetshepi Lodge

Discover the beauty and serenity of the African bush while enjoying the luxury, comfort and hospitality of our two unique lodges. CLEARWATER LODGES, a Relais & Chateaux rated private game lodge, managed in association with Morgenhof Wine Estate, is situated in the Welgevonden Game Reserve, which nestles in the picturesque and well known Waterberg Mountains in the Limpopo Province, approximately 2½ hours from Johannesburg International Airport, in a malaria free area.

Game
Experience the bush from the state of the art open Landrover with a well qualified ranger who will endeavour to show you the BIG FIVE: lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo in their natural surroundings. Apart from the big five, Welgevonden includes kudu, giraffe, zebra, warthog and the rare roan antelope amongst others. For the bird lovers there are approximately 300 species that occur in this diverse and magnificent 33 000 hectares of bushveld.

Activities and Relaxation
Enjoy a crisp morning game drive with the beauty of the rising African sun as well as an evening drive, where the mysterious nightlife can be viewed by spotlight. For the more adventurous, enjoy a guided walk during which the smaller members of the bush family add an interesting and holistic bush experience. Cool down and relax from the hot African sun and enjoy your favourite cocktail at our pool or on your own private deck while enjoying the sights and sounds of the tranquil African bush.

Accommodation
Clearwater offers two unique and charming lodges. Each lodge consists of three exquisite private chalets and one double unit, accommodating a maximum of ten guests.
Tshetshepi Lodge is situated in the heart of the bush along the slow meandering Taaibos River, where the Chachma baboons descend the overhanging cliffs to drink from its cool, clear waters.

Alternatively, experience Kudu Lodge with its open Savannah overlooking a waterhole. Lie in luxury and watch page after page "out of Africa" pass in front of your eyes or sit back on the deck and absorb the vastness of Africa.

Cuisine
Enjoy the choice of fine Morgenhof Estate Wines while savouring our exquisitely prepared local and French cuisine.
Clearwater Lodges incorporate two dinner venues. From the beautiful, warm and friendly atmosphere of the main lodge dining room, to the rustic Boma, where the expansive beauty of the African night sky can be viewed while sitting around the fire and listening to the cricket concerto.



Finish off the perfect day by returning to your chalet and be serenaded to sleep by the sounds of Africa.
