Welvanpas Guest farm is located in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. Green grass, electric power, braai, nice ablutions, swimming pool and a kiddies play area. Located about 14Km's north of Middelburg Cape, on a farm. 2Km's of dirt road, but ok for camper vans and normal road caravans.

Lovely place to stop off if you heading to Baviaanskloof, or further down to the Cape.

Doorndraai Lodge and Caravan Park - Campsite Review

 Doorndraai Lodge and Caravan Park - Campsite Review Limpopo Province - South Africa

• Doorndraai Lodge & Caravan Park
• Private Ablutions
• Off Grid Campsites
• On a Game Farm

Date Visited : September 2023

DG Overlanding camped at Doorndraai Lodge and Caravan Park. 

Stunning campsite in a game farm. Electric power point – braai and fire pit (starter wood provided each day) 

Private ablutions – we had site 5 with a bath and a shower. Hot water provided by solar geyser – was always very hot. Pressure good. Lovely enclosed wash up area with double sink (super!!) Paved area for pitching your tent. Sites are private with “fence” between your neighbours. But, if you know your neighbours or are camping with family/friends a gate can be opened between each site. 

Bird life was great and a few animals camp past the campsite. You can purchase animal feed to encourage the animals. You are also able to drive around the farm and there is also a 4x4 track. Doorndraai also has wild campsites – with no amenities – and they were busy constructing further wild campsites. Staff were amazing – and you can “employ” them to wash your dishes as well. Wood and ice are available, but there is no shop or restaurant. They also have mountain bike trails, hiking as well as a kiddies play area and a splash pool. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back.

Eagles Nest Bush Camp !

Just spent a few days at this lovely campsite! Eagles Nest is super - 8 sites all with private ablutions, a braai, electric power and a fire pit. Lots of shade, a kiddies play area and a small pool. On a working farm, so there are some buck as well as sheep that roam around the campsite.
Nice and quiet.
Eagles Nest is on the road between Bela-Bela and Thabazimbi.
Really nice !

Playground
Lovely kiddies playground. A trampoline, swings, slides and more!

Toilets
Private ablutions for each site. Really nice shower, flush toilet, hand basin and wash up facilities for each site.

Nthakeni Bush and River Camp - Campsite Review 

• Nthakeni Bush & River Camp
• Private Ablutions
• Limpopo Province
• South Africa

Date Visited : June 2023

Here is a superb campsite with private ablutions, just outside of the Kruger National Park, at the Pafuri Gate.

This campsite has really nice big stands, lovely private ablutions (hot water from a donkey boiler) and it’s located on the banks of the river. It also has a swimming pool, small shop as well as a restaurant (you need to pre book). They sell firewood as well and have a nice boma with lounge seating to relax in. There is no electricity so you should have a solar setup to keep the fridge running (especially in the hot summer months)

We really enjoyed our stay here.
