KAAPSCHE HOOP GASTEHUIS
Bed & Breakfast/ Guest House/ Guest Lodge Accommodation
in Kaapsche Hoop, Lowveld & Kruger National Park,
Mpumalanga, South Africa
Nestled on the edge of the Mpumalanga escarpment,Kaapsche Hoop looks over
the valleys toward Barberton and Nelspruit and in this tranquil setting you will
find "Kaapsche Hoop Gastehuis". (Guesthouse).
Kaapsche Hoop Gastehuis has eight fully equipped luxury en-suite rooms with mini
bar, each with it's own private entry. The Guesthouse also has a restaurant and
bar.
Being only 28 Km from Nelspruit, Kaapsche Hoop Gastehuis is ideally situated as
a home base from which you can travel for day trips to Graskop, the
Badplaas and even Mozambique or Swaziland.
Accommodation
Rooms can be configured to single, twin or double. Both beds and bedding in
the guesthouse are of highest quality, the duvets and cushions being made of
pure wool, promising a comfortable, warm and refreshing sleep.
The restaurant used to be known as "The Wild Horse" and became quite well known
for its outstanding quality of fare. Today, it is almost solely available to our
guests. The bar, also, is private and lends itself to a relaxing atmosphere
where friends can meet.
Daily activities
Kaapsche Hoop is surrounded by forests and open grass-veldt, interspersed
with beautiful rock formations - sandstone carved by millennia of wind, rain and
ice. In this rejuvenating atmosphere you can go for short walks or long hikes
and enjoy an area where wild horses roam free, the air is pure, the water is
clear and sweet, the people friendly and the memories plenty.
To make your stay all the more memorable, there are horse trails ranging from 1
1/2
hours to five-day bum killer slogs. The ultimate is a moonlight ride. An
absolute must for the nature lover! (Only available at full moon in clear
weather.) Four wheeler trails are also available to those who are skittish of
live horsepower. Both are subject to separate bookings.
The bird life is a pleasure to behold. The critically endangered blue swallow
graces us with it's presence during summer and large raptors nesting in trees
makes the weight of binoculars on a walk worth while.
Location
Kaapsche Hoop is situated 12km off the N4 towards Nelspruit. Turn off at the
SAPPI pulp mill and climb 728 meters while driving 12 km to the top of the
mountain. Driving past Kaapsche Hoop is a short cut to Nelspruit, circumventing
traffic and cutting a neat 18km off the trip. The beautiful views are free.
Being so high above the surrounding valleys, Kaapsche Hoop has a unique climate
with wet misty summers and rather cold winters. Always bring a warm piece of
clothing with.
