About This Property

We find Mbizane breathtaking. This private conservancy straddles the Lowveld escarpment at the top of the Schoemanskloof valley, bounded by rivers, cliffs and ravines, and it is a registered Natural Heritage Site.

Five elevated deck tents sit along the stream, each with its own view of the cliffs.

Why We Love It

The tents are big and stylish: a lounge, dining and kitchen area, a bedroom with an extra-length king bed and an open-plan bathroom with a bath.

Hiking and swimming in the streams make this a lovely slow escape on the way to or from Kruger.
