Stay at Montusi Mountain Lodge

Nestled in one of the world’s most breathtaking locations, Montusi Mountain Lodge stands as a cherished family-owned and operated establishment. With its sweeping vistas of the awe-inspiring Amphitheatre Mountain, the lodge is strategically positioned within a vast conservation estate, offering guests an optimal blend of space, comfort, and tranquility. Nature enthusiasts will find their haven here, immersing themselves in the serene mountain ambiance while embarking on explorations by foot, mountain bike, or horseback. The lodge presents an array of exciting adventures, from hiking and running trails to horse-riding stables and a tennis court. For those seeking quieter pleasures, the cozy outdoor couches and indigenous gardens provide the perfect vantage point for bird-watching and awe-inspiring views. When the sun beckons, the generously-sized swimming pool offers a refreshing respite for both energetic hikers and leisurely sunbathers.

Indulging guests in utmost privacy, the individual suites are thoughtfully nestled within the lush gardens. Every detail is considered to ensure an extraordinary experience, from the delectable fairtrade organic Ethiopian ground coffee complemented by French Press plungers and traditional South African rusks to the plush robes, umbrellas, and mosquito-repelling machines. Come winter, gas fireplaces and under-carpet and bathroom heaters cocoon guests in warmth, while the high thatched roofs and ceiling fans maintain a pleasant coolness, eliminating the need for artificial air conditioning. At Montusi Mountain Lodge, every aspect has been carefully crafted to offer a haven of comfort and natural splendour.

The Pitchers

We had the most amazing time! John Barclay and his team were very special and the mobile safari exclusive and superb. Moremi was very quiet with few other tourists – no more than a dozen other vehicles seen in four days. Macatoo was also excellent with good riding and game. We were so grateful for the help that you offered when our BA flights went wrong. Many thanks again for the superb service and recommendations which made for a great holiday.
