Accommodation

Aloe Canyons Cottage

The cottage patio has beautiful views of the river with its canyonlike look.  Watch from the cottage how the wildlife  graze around the cottage and across the river, and watch the exquisite birdlife as well.  The wildlife is very tamed, so you can walk around and have a nearby sight of them to take pictures.

There is also a lapa from where you can watch all these activities.  There is a playpen for children, a little river in front of the lapa with facilities where you can braai, kayak, or spend the day if you feel like. Ablution blocks are on the premises as well.

Ossewa / Oxwagon

We here at Aloe Canyons transformed an old oxwagen into a glamorous camping unit. Relax on your oxwagen bed while looking down at the river and glancing over the extraordinary wildlife like Eland, Kudu and Springbuck and the variety of birds are amazing. The oxwagen has enough space for storing your bags and even has a basin inside to make things easier.

With a braai and your kitchen (little stone house) right next to the wagon and ablution bocks only about 50m away, why wouldn’t  you want to spent some time here? Oxwagon clients also have their own bushshower (cold water) and toilet.

The oxwagen is perfect for those campers in training and the campers who like to keep it luxurious. The nature lovers, animal lovers and people who love trying new things!

Campsites & Lapa

We have two campsites hosting 4-6 people per site.  One site is shaded, the other one not.  There is a lapa from where you can watch the wildlife (eland, kudu, springbuck) and a very exquisite birdlife or you can do it from your campsite. Each site has its own water- and powerpoint, and feel free to use the freezing utilities in the lapa.  When the weather is not so accommodating, feel free to use the braai inside the lapa.

Activities

• There is a play area for children and a shallow little salty river for swimming.
• Feel free to cycle, jog or take a leisurely walk and see interesting reptiles, birds, animals and plants or take a swim in the river or kayak for a spin.
• Or simply put your feet up and enjoy the peace and quiet while enjoying birdwatching and wildlife.
