Beautiful Polokwane (Pietersburg) Plateau that you've passed through on your way here and the dry hot lowveld after the (R71) has dropped down the escarpment through the picturesque Magoebaskloof to Tzaneen - to quote from the Scottish author John Buchan when he visited the area more than a hundred years ago.

Here is a true lodge in the wilderness, with on the one side the stony Pietersburg uplands, and on the other the malarial bushveld. The contrast makes a profound impression, since the Woodbush itself is the extreme of richness and beauty.
