Get away from it all and enjoy the tranquil Mpumalanga mountain scenery from the luxurious Dawson's Game and Trout Lodge, an exclusive nature retreat that spoils guests with its colonial charm and warm ambience.
Dawson's Game and Trout Lodge is situated below the dramatic Nelshoogte Pass and offers superb luxury accommodation in exclusively decorated rooms. There is one quaint stone cottage set against the mountainside offering stunning views of the surrounds. Rooms are gorgeously appointed with king size beds, fireplaces and en-suite Victorian bathrooms. Alternatively, guests can choose to stay in the beautifully restored farmhouse which is ideal for families. Breakfast and lunch can be served either in the privacy of the guest rooms, on the patio or enjoyed in the warmly lit dining room. For a romantic lunch, the chef will prepare a sumptuous picnic basket that can accompany guests on a self-drive outing to any secluded point on the reserve. For a truly African experience, dinner can be enjoyed in the lodge's traditional African-style boma around an open log fire. Guests have full access to a variety of activities including guided game drives and walks, trout and bass fishing, bird watching, horse riding and hiking.
Dawson's Game and Trout Lodge lies at the top of Nelshoogte Pass in Barbeton in the Mpumalanga Province.
