A river-side escape on the Orange
Posted on Fri August 25, 2017 in River-side escape.
Our first-time guests often use the terms “hidden gem” and “pleasant surprise” in their compliments to us. We believe that this is a reflection of our mission to create an exclusive retreat in a unique natural setting that is known by few. A key part of this is the unique natural environment – the vibrant Orange river.
The Orange river’s twists and turns tell a story that forms an integral part of our story too. It is open, welcoming, and full of character – a true resemblance of the Northern Cape and its people. From raging rapids to calm, shallow waters – the mighty Orange river has many faces and offers something for everyone. Whether you’re seeking solitude, fun, or adventure – you will find it here on the banks of this vibrant river – and we’ll show you how.
For those who want to brave the powerful white water rapids, we’ll make sure that you’re geared and ready to make some waves. Our experienced team will find the sections that are right for you and your group – whether you’re new to white water rafting, or you’re looking for a new challenge.
The fishermen in the group can try their luck in the bustling streams around the lodge, while the R&R candidates can sunbathe on the lush green banks of the river or take a dip. Of course, your room overlooking the river has a great vantage point from which to view all of these activities, if you’d rather enjoy the outdoors from your luxurious sanctuary.
Why not end off the day with a sundowner on the deck and a delicious meal from our family-run kitchen. Exchange stories of the day’s activities around the fire before you retreat into your luxury accommodation and fall asleep to the sound of nocturnal life singing the song of the great Orange river.
Book a stay with us and have your river-side escape the way you want it. Also, don’t miss our special offers! Take a look at the tab on the right side of the web page to see what specials we have in store for you.

How to differentiate between smallmouth and largemouth yellowfish?

It is clear from several studies that largemouth yellowfish and smallmouth yellowfish are morphologically distinct and identifiable using several features, amongst others mouth position, mouth size, eye to preopercular groove distance, colouration, interorbital width and eye position in general. Having fished and guided on the Orange River system for the past 25 years I have observed many of these differences and can give some practical pointers.
