Come and share the secret ... set in the Albasini Conservancy overlooking the Dam with sweeping views of the Soutpansberg one will find ShiLuvari Lakeside LodgeOnce the old farmhouse, the Lodge now boasts an intimate country restaurant, rustic bar and comfortable lounge area.

Well appointed thatched chalets, set aside from the main Lodge, have twin beds and en-suite bathrooms. In keeping with the idea of "getting away from it all" one will not find a telephone or television in the rooms to intrude upon the tranquility.

Phone, fax and television are available in the main Lodge.

For the energetic, explore the 60 hectare property of natural bush following trails along the dam or into the bush.

While studying the abundance of birdlife, look out for duiker, bushbuck, waterbuck or kudu. Or simply laze next to the pool overlooking the dam. In the evening sip a sundowner and listen to the jackal, bush baby and night jars performing their nightly chorus.
