We are a family owned/run Lodge and Restaurant with a relaxed, casual atmosphere, catering for families with children, group of friends or travelers passing through the Lowveld. Perfectly Located just 500m from the most popular gate to the Kruger National Park It is our mission to make your stay with us as enjoyable as possible and strive to give our guests and diners excellent service. However, living in this beautiful yet somewhat remote area, we do from time to time experience unexpected supply, demand and delivery problems. In such cases we will endeavour to offer and alternative but apologise if we are not able to assist with your first choice.
Trevor, Owner & Chef has perfected the trade over the years and has worked at various restaurants all over South Africa. These include the Airport Sun Hotel, Gold Reef City and Prohibition Coffee Shop in Joburg, the Blue Lagoon in East London, Artist's café in Sabie District, Ten on Russel in Nelspruit and the Malelane Sun Hotel and the Naboom Lodge and Leopards Creek in Malelane Trevor focuses on contemporary cuisine with Italian influence and his speciality is a deboned chicken peri-peri.
We only 500m away from the very famous Kruger National Park and privileged to offer our guests access (with prior reservation and subject to availability) Morning Walks and Sunrise / Sunset drivers into Kruger. Situated nest to Leopard Creek Golf Course. 1 hours Drive from both Kruger International and Skakuza Airport. 45min Drive from both Mozambique Komatipoort Border and Swaziland Jeppies Reef Border. We are perfectly located to explore.
