Highgrove House

Highgrove House is a most gracious colonial country retreat. From the moment you make your way down the jacaranda-lined driveway till the moment you depart, you are transported into a world of unabashed luxury and exceptional elegance, where old world charm and courtesy are the order of the day.

Sumptuous gourmet dishes have earned Highgrove House a place amongst the Top Ten Restaurants in South Africa. Mouth watering specialities are exquisitely crafted, and wonderfully presented, complemented by some of South Africa's finest wines.

The Lowveld area around Highgrove House is beautiful, and there are several attractions worthy of a visit, including God's Window, Bourke's Luck Potholes, the Three Rondavals, and the spectacular Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve.

The highly promoted 'Panorama Route' is a self-drive route, which takes in many of the scenic sights en-route.

There is a choice of 8 luxury suites, each with their own comfortable sitting room area with a wonderful open log fireplace.

Each suite has its own private patio, which offers stunning views over the Lowveld. Meals can be served here at your request.

2 of the suites also have a private plunge pool in a secluded private garden, plus an outside shower, sauna and fully-stocked mini bar.

Cross over the next set of lights and then at the final set, with a Caltex garage on your right, turn left on the R40 for Hazyview, signposted to Phalaborwa (the R538 to Hazyview via the Numbi Gate is a slow, busy, potholed road and not recommended.)

From Hoedspruit / Eastgate Airport: Take the R40 southwards towards Hazyview, turning left at Klaserie to stay on the R40. Be especially cautious about speeding on this road.

After the Machado Toll Plaza follow the Schoemanskloof option on the N4 towards Nelspruit (lunch at Old Joe’s Kaia is recommended).
