Description

The Kingfisher Country Cottages & Trout Lodge is located on the R36 outside the town of Machadodorp. The lodge is located in the Highlands Meander that is known as the country's trout triangle.

The lodge offers self-catering accommodation in 10 chalets. All chalets are equipped for self-catering. Each unit features a private patio with braai facilities and a fireplace. The chalets are all service daily. The restaurant also provides meal and there is a menu available. The bar is fully licensed.

DStv channels are only available at the main lodge.

The river meandering through the lodge feeds the well-stocked trout dams on the farm, which is great for fly fishing. The dams are stocked with Rainbow Trout.

The pools below the 100m waterfall are great for picnicking and swimming, and the cliffs are home to the breeding colonies of the endangered Bald Ibis. The non-angler will take in the breathtaking views whilst hiking, cycling, horse riding, picnicking, bird-watching or just strolling through the gardens and grounds. A new swimming pool is available.
