Deep in the heart of the forest, you'll find an old hunting Lodge called Cybele Forest Lodge, 300-acres of African paradise surrounded by timber plantations, mountains and meadows. A charming old farmhouse with a wide verandah, where you can sip sundowners and look out over the magnificent gardens.

Watch the playful monkeys cavorting in the giant Turpentine trees. Take in the cool violet blue of the Jacaranda and the scarlet umbrella of the African Flame tree. In striking contrast to the vivid colours and lush greenery of the gardens, the interior of the Lodge is warm, soft and mellow. Furnished throughout with antiques, art and exquisite fabrics. All the suites offer superb luxury and their own private swimming pools.

Cybele Lodge's most memorable achievements are revealed in the intimate dining room, earning the Lodge a reputation amongst both local and international travellers for some of the very finest food in the land. Cybele Lodge has its own riding stables with a groom who will escort you on a ride. Enjoy wonderful walks, bird watch, or catch some plump rainbow trout. For the ultimate in rest and relaxation, indulge yourself at Cybele's new luxury spa.
