A NATURAL ANIMAL & BIRD HAVEN IN THE WATERBERG!

A natural haven for exotic bird and an array of wildlife species located in the Rankins Pass area between Vaalwater & Modimolle (Nylstroom) in the Limpopo Province.

On this 505Ha gem of the Waterberg, you will enjoy breathtaking views onto the surrounding mountains whilst vast savannah grasslands align with a richness of crystal-clear water through several dams as well as rock-pools and streams, creating a majestical Bushveld environment very few farms can compete with.

Home to prolific predator species such as lion and spotted hyena whilst cape buffalo roams free with loads of other antelopes. Several bird species such as blue crane, flamingo, parrot, etc. have all found their heavenly homestead right here.
Where else will you experience the unmistaken call of the fish-eagle echoing daily whilst being humbled by the nocturnal sounds coming from resident jackal, hyena & lion.

Extensive infrastructure that goes beyond the norm & obvious with gin lounge and sunken whiskey tasting cellar whilst the more active can sweat it out in a fully equipped gym overlooking a natural pond and surrounding mountains.

Infrastructure is set in a lush garden with never-ending water-features that flow along pathways and accumulating in small ponds, achieving soul-searching immersion into serenity.
