Bird lovers will love to know that the Black Eagle can be found here to. Bring your binoculars along to observe many other fascinating bush creatures.
They provide luxury 4-star accommodation -each of the en-suite bedrooms is air conditioned and individually decorated. Log fires and under floor heating warm up cold Karoo nights, and there’s also a sparkling pool for those hot summers.

Wheatlands Country Lodge is a manor house that was designed by Charles Bridgeman, and is a mixture of Cape Dutch and Edwardian styles. It is a beautiful homestead on a working wool and mohair farm.
On entering, guests will be transported back to another era as antique furniture, persian carpets and plenty of bookcases make one think of men of old relaxing with a glass of wine and a cigar. In fact there is a comfy guest lounge with TV and log fires for winter.
Diana Short, the hostess of this wonderful farm, cooks the most divine meals, and her table groans with true Karoo delights – Karoo lamb of course with crisp homegrown vegetables.
If you live in the city, you have to try Wheatlands …. they also have some excellent hikes through the surrounding mountains.
For the time of your life, contact Wheatlands …. and wave the city goodbye.
