Description

Adama Artistic Chalets & Teepees offers a peaceful bushveld retreat in the Dinokeng Game Reserve, just 48 km from Pretoria. The lodge features six uniquely decorated chalets and two Indian-style teepees, each thoughtfully furnished with handmade furniture, private open-air bomas, and fire pits for starlit braais. The chalets vary in construction: some are built using natural materials such as straw, clay, and grass, while others are made of brick and sheet metal—blending seamlessly into the surrounding wilderness where wildlife roams freely.

The teepees include private bathrooms, kitchens, patios, fans, heaters, and down duvets for comfort. A communal swimming pool is just a short drive from the units. Guests can explore a 140 km self-drive route suitable for standard vehicles, as well as an additional 23 km route designed for high-clearance or 4x4 vehicles. As the units are unfenced, guests are advised to remain alert, avoid walking into the bush, and supervise children at all times. Unfortunately, pets are not allowed.

Access through the Rust de Winter or Boekenhoutskloof gates includes the first hour free; standard conservation fees apply thereafter. Day visitors to the restaurant are charged R75 per adult. South African citizens pay R75 per adult online or R100 at the gate per day or evening, and R50 per child (aged 2 to 12) online or R80 at the gate. International visitors are charged R150 per adult and R100 per child.

Self-drive permits require a once-off payment of R250. Pensioners receive discounted rates from Monday to Thursday. A detailed route guide is available for R50, though it does not serve as a permit. Driving without a permit will result in a fine of R2500, and a recovery fee of R500 applies if you get stuck in a restricted area.
