Lowveld - Dec 2020 / Jan 2021

‘Our guest suite
opened onto a
semi-private
garden with a
swimming pool,
in the shade of
a great jacaranda
tree’
with flowing water, cool breezes and
birdsong. We felt as though we had
stepped back in time to an era of
old-world grandeur, where sweeping
staircases and patrons dressed for
dinner were the norm, and tall, ice-cold
drinks were served on the terrace on
long, languid afternoons. The fish
ponds are a revelation, with massive
koi lazily sweeping their tails back and
forth through the shadowy water,
emerging from the depths with flashes
of gold and pearl-white iridescence to
break the surface before once again
descending into their twilight world.
