Donkieskraal, Camping Site near Leipoldtville

Description

Welcome to Donkieskraal. Only a two and a half hour drive from Cape Town, Donkieskraal offers a quick escape from the everyday rush and routine.

There are 5 semi-shaded campsites on grass, each with its own braai area, power point and tap. Ablution facilities with a special room for mothers and babies and disabled persons are available for campers. A maximum of four people are allowed per campsite.

The Lodge is set in a total secure environment, in the beautiful Sandveld, surrounded by indigenous fynbos and breathtaking sandstone rock formations. Come and relax in one of our rock chalets, safari tents or even in your own tent in the camping area.

Eland, Kudu, Blue Wildebeest, Zebra, Red Hartebeest, Impala, Bontebok, Gemsbok, Nyala, Springbok and Ostrich once roamed the Sandveld and has successfully been re-introduced into the game reserve. These animals now roam freely where their ancestors used to trot. Smaller game like the Bat Eared Fox, Caracall, Porcupine, Aardvark, Steenbok, Duikers, etc. is a common sight, especially during the evenings.

The three spacious luxury chalets with double beds and en-suite bathrooms blend in with the surrounding sandstone formations of the mountain. These are all equipped with shower, bath & toilet. The Honeymoon suite has a jet/bubble bath. Coffee- and Tea making facilities, as well as a small bar fridge come standard in the chalets. All linen and towels are provided. These units sleep two persons each and a mattress can be arranged for children under the age of three.

Each of the four Safari Tents has its own en-suite bathroom complete with shower and toilet. These units sleep up to four persons each on four three-quarter beds. We provide all the linen and towels. Coffee- and Tea making facilities are available in the tents, but guests in tents all make use of the central kitchen for refrigeration facilities.
