Hartbeespoort Eco Lodge & Boutique Backpackers

Hartbeespoort Eco Lodge & Boutique Backpackers

Experience true South African Hospitality...
Eden in the shade of the Magaliesberg Mountain...

It is not difficult to see why the ancients chose this as their favourite sacred place and why we keep coming back to it as if drawn by instinct. A visit to South Africa is not complete without a visit to this vast area where our quest for sustainable development can be seen in all that we do. The people of Kameeldrift and Hartbeespoort are just a stone`s throw from the bustling metropole of Pretoria but everywhere nature is revered.

Hartbeespoort Eco Lodge & Boutique Backpackers is situated only 20 minutes out of the city. Offering self catering boutique hotel style backpackers accommodation at a fraction of the cost of a B&B or Hotel.

This exceptional lodge caters to the taste of the seasoned backpacker who, because of experience, can be more discerning. It is not a converted house but rather a boutique style compound developed from scratch with the international traveler in mind because we know that you can afford to stay in better places. But why should you? You would certainly miss out on the true backpacking spirit. We have therefore developed a lodge that gives you the comfort and privacy you deserve without breaking the bank.

In fact you may find our prices cheaper than the last dump you stayed in...

But that`s not what it is about. In a time that everyone seems to be getting on the 2010 bandwagon we simply want to show you that you are still the reason for our business. Allow us to show you the true South African hospitality and personal care you deserve without the stiff upper lip.
