Purpose of Development:
Gareth Hattingh, land owner and lodge developer, first visited Black Rock in 2005 and fell in love with the sublime beaches, crystal clear water and natural beauty of the area. Since then he has been going back a couple of times a year and has built a very strong relationship with the local community. Although there are currently commercial lodges in the area, Gareth felt that he wanted to further uplift the community and develop a non-commercial lodge of his own. In doing this he would always have a ‘home’ away from ‘home’ at his favourite piece of Africa.
