The Sabie Town House Guest Lodge

The Sabie Town House is a guest lodge built from river stone and local timber, sitting above the Sabie gorge in Sabie, a small Mpumalanga forestry town on the escarpment. It is a practical base for the waterfalls and viewpoints of the Panorama Route, and for day trips towards the Kruger. Expect a house-style stay with breakfast, a pool and garden views rather than hotel formality.

What to expect

There are nine suites: seven double rooms and two family units that sleep up to five. Each has its own entrance, and most look over the garden. Breakfast is served daily, in the dining room or on the veranda above the pool. Shared spaces include a library, a lounge, a bar and a games room with a pool table, plus braai areas in the garden.

The garden runs to the edge of the gorge, so birders should keep binoculars handy, and rock hyraxes live on the slopes below.

Practical details

• Address: 25 Malieveld Street, Sabie.
• Rooms: nine suites, two of them family units.
• Check-in 2pm to 6pm, check-out by 10am.
• Free Wi-Fi and secure parking.
• Pets may be accepted by arrangement.

Good to know

Sabie Falls is about half a kilometre away, an easy walk from the lodge, and the town is a natural starting point for the Panorama Route. Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport is roughly 46 km away. With only nine suites, the lodge can fill quickly in school holidays, so book ahead if you have fixed dates.
