Just a few hours drive from Cape Town brings you to the ideal destination of Tankwa Karoo National Park(close to Sutherland), for those of you seeking a once-in-a-lifetime glimpse of a rare endemic bird, or perhaps nothing more than a silence that reaches deep into the soul.
The fully equipped cottages blend superbly into the surrounding landscape, being constructed on the contour of the hillside and positioned in such a way that they are not directly visible from one another. Built using traditional methods and materials of unbaked bricks and clay plastering. The large picture windows afford wonderful views of the Roggeveld Escarpment.

We booked one of the most beautiful trips we've ever had through Safari.com. The service was excellent and uncomplicated. They catered to special requests, booked additional flights, and the accommodation (Simbavati River Lodge) was simply unbelievably beautiful. Our expectations were far exceeded, and we can only recommend Safari.com. We will definitely book our next vacation through Safari.com and recommend it to our friends. Many thanks, Nelia & Catherine!
