Overview

Welcome to Gagga Kamma Nature Reserve

 

 

A Kagga Kamma Nature Reserve adventure means stepping into another world and discovering a whole new perspective.

 

Kagga Kamma is not ‘just’ a holiday destination… It is an experience of time feeling as though it is standing still as the sun travels across the sky, casting shadows over Huts and Caves. It is a feeling of overwhelming peace and quiet while staring across a landscape of red sand and wild flowers. It is a moment etched into the fabric of South African culture. It is a heritage passed down through the generations and it is ours, our Kagga Kamma.

 

Once upon a time

In 1986 Willie de Waal, Pieter de Waal and Pieter Loubser bought Kagga Kamma, as well as three adjacent farms; together the properties boasted 15 000 hectares of pristine fynbos plains, and the owners immediately saw the potential of the land. Over the course of the following year, a small stone cottage was erected to allow the owners to visit and entertain friends on the property. It was love at first sight for their visitors and Willie, Pieter and Pieter made the decision to share and preserve the area on a wider basis. In 1988 and 1989, Grootvlei Farm was purchased for better quality water and the properties were turned into Kagga Kamma Nature Reserve. Soon after, the first Chalets were built, and a few antelope species were introduced onto the Reserve. From there, Kagga Kamma grew into what it is today; a welcoming Lodge in a unique landscape which is continuously striving to offer guests memorable experiences while preserving the natural environment.

    We crave destinations where the push and pull of the daily commute and the noise of the ever-humming city gives way to wide open spaces, where we can experience true communion with nature.

    When you’re caught up in the daily grind, it’s easy to lose sight of how intrinsic a need this is – the need to spend time in an unfettered environment where you can lose yourself in the tranquillity of uninterrupted natural beauty. Select any unique accommodation and be transported to a world of wonder and comfort.

     

     

    Open Air Suites
    The Open-Air Suites at Kagga Kamma are situated further away from the Main Lodge to offer couples peace and quality time together under a night sky gleaming, kissed by the wave of the Milky Way.

     

    The quietness is a presence, something so pure and deep in the wide-angle space. 

     

    Spend an afternoon soaking up the sunlight and panoramic views of the surrounds before enjoying a private dinner alongside a crackling fire. As the sun disappears on the horizon and gives way to a multitude of stars, step into a luscious soak in a star bath to unwind and climb, refreshed, into a comfortable bed, drifting off into a peaceful sleep. The remoteness and the absence of light pollution ensures clear night skies to explore the galaxy of stars so close you can almost touch them.
