An oasis in the middle of the Klein Karoo’s semi-desert, the Lodge has an unpretentious and friendly air, exuded through the character and comfort of the beautifully restored building. Extensive manicured gardens and orchards envelop the swimming pool and pave the way towards the mountains beyond. Despite the emphasis on rest and relaxation, there is plenty to occupy the restless. 4X4 explorations of the semi-desert and its unique flora and wildlife can be readily arranged, alongside hiking tours and a plethora of sporting activities including golf, mountain biking and rock climbing.

The 16 en-suite bedrooms and suites ooze old world charm. Individually decorated in warm colours and brimming with thoughtful touches, all open onto the gardens or Victorian veranda. Meals expertly prepared by the resident chef extraordinaire can be savoured in the traditional dining room, complimented by a fine selection of home-grown wines.

With the local climate guaranteeing 360 days of sunshine, the Mimosa Lodge is an excellent place to luxuriate off the beaten track.
