A maximum of 10 volunteers at any such time will be the limit. Males and females will be separate however near enough to all enjoy socializing.
Our accommodation has been totally revamped under the new ownership and management of Nicky and Neil who are passionate about hospitality, conservation and meeting all volunteer needs and requirements.
Our units cater for a maximum of 3 people per unit but we prefer to only have 2 people occupy a unit. All meals are provided in our dining area and an honesty bar is available for liquid refreshments.
Our wooden chalets have either a bath or shower. There is a veranda to sit and admire the landscape when there is time to chill. For couples there are either king size or double beds.
For singles either 3 x single beds per chalet or 2 x single beds per chalet.
There is the option to be alone at an additional charge or to upgrade to the standard units.
We provide bath towels, toilet paper, cable tv (DSTV) (in the standard units), fans (either floor or ceiling) and once a week someone to come dust and sweep.
Washing can be done at an additional charge.
NOTE: South Africa is notorious for its load-shedding (this means for certain times of the day we are without electricity), We have installed an outside solar light per chalet to avoid total darkness.
Indulge in a relaxed daily rhythm at our sanctuary, where the day unfolds with breakfast around 9 am, followed by a leisurely lunch at 1 pm. As for dinner, its timing is as flexible as the lively social atmosphere in our entertainment bar area, often taking place around 6:30 pm. Our culinary experience is designed to be straightforward and comforting, with Beauty, our talented cook, ready to accommodate any special dietary needs you may have.
We take pride in utilizing fresh produce sourced from our very own garden, where Lucia and Beauty are continually harvesting an array of beautiful vegetables. While our meals are typically simple, we do enjoy occasional outings for delectable experiences, such as savoring a good pizza or hosting a delightful braai around the pool.
When it comes to tempting treats, we highly recommend indulging in Beauty’s specialties—her mouthwatering Malva pudding, a refreshing fresh fruit salad served every morning, and the irresistible banana bread that has become a favorite among our visitors.
And here’s a lighthearted note: Despite all the fulfilling activities and delicious offerings, we jest that with all the work and enjoyment, losing weight might still be a distant goal! Embrace the wholesome delights of our meals and the warmth of our community as you create lasting memories in our sanctuary.
