Miskruier” the name of our working Citrus farm is not only just a name the owner, Mr. HHJ Potgieter, decided upon years ago when he bought the property in 1996. He already had the idea so save this special flightless dung beetle, after developing the farm into a highly productive commercial citrus farm, exporting 14 varieties to approximately 60 countries worldwide.
Addo Dung Beetle Guest Farm is situated 4 km from the Main Gate of the Addo Elephant National Park on a working Citrus Farm. The Citrus part of the Farm is approximately 250ha with an estimated 151 000 individual trees.
We have 5 luxury chalets – B&B and then 3 Rustic Bush Cabins with Self-Catering facilities.
We are ideal for couples, parent-breakaways, honeymooners and also for small group of 10 people sharing in the Luxury Chalets and 6 people sharing in the Rustic Bush Cabins. In our Thatched Roof Lapa we prepare traditional South African mouth-watering set meals on the fire while you enjoy a sundowner with us, booking is essential prior to arrival date.
Luxury chalets – 2 children extra, we add 2 x single stretcher beds with linen and towels or baby camping cot.
Our 5 Luxurious Chalets are nestled on a Mountain top overlooking the magnificent Zuurberg Mountains.
Each of our Chalets has a mountain view. We have Chalets with 2 twin beds or a queen size bed. The chalets are equipped with the following: TV (SABC 1, 2, 3 and e-TV), air-conditioners with a heating and fan option, mini bar fridge, hairdryer, microwave, coffee & tea, digital safe and hangers. Each Chalet has an ensuite bathroom with 2 hand basins, in-side shower, outside shower, bath, toilet and all the towels are supplied.
All our bedside tables and headboards are made up from a combination of local wood species found in the area (Yellow Woods, Oaks, Sneeze Woods and Black Wood). The Sneeze Wood chandeliers found through the Chalets and Lapa were used as fence posts on the farm until a few years ago.
They are termite proof. The porcupine quill lamp shades found in the bathrooms and the lapa were hand made by the owner.
We offer the following facilities on our premises: splash pool, curio shop, bar facilities & dining lapa need to be booked prior to arrival at additional costs, hiking, mountain bike hiring, game viewing, bird watching, citrus tours, laundry service, upper level lounge and breakfast section, upper level sundowner deck, Jacuzzi, rock pool with sun deck, massage room and gym.
Addo and surrounding areas are unique and have much to offer the guest for e.g.:
- Citrus Pack house tours.
- Trips to Addo Elephant National Park (4km from Addo Dung Beetle Guest Farm).
- Health Spa.
- Petrol (8km from Addo Dung Beetle Guest Farm).
- Daniell Cheetah Breeding Farm – Wild Cats World.
- Volkswagen car tour (from the old forgotten cars to the future).
- Elephant Back Safaris – transfers arranged.
- Rehabilitation Centre for Raptors & Reptiles.
- Various Private Nature Reserves – transfers arranged.
Rustic self-catering bush cabins – unfortunately not child friendly.
3 Self-catering facilities or with a B&B option.
Bush Cabins – minimum stay of 2 nights.
Our 3 private wooden rustic bush cabins are for those real nature lovers situated each on different levels on the hillside in our safari area. Walking distance from the main lodge and parking area. Each rustic bush cabin has its own private out-side flushable toilet and out-side open air shower adjacent to the cabins. You can enjoy your magnificent mountain view when you are preparing your food on your open deck kitchen or on the fire. Not really suitable for those with walking difficulties.
Guests may make use of the other Addo Dung Beetle facilities at the main lodge area such as the swimming pool and more.
Bush Cabin facilities: electricity, hot & cold water, bar fridge, kettle, stove (single plate), crockery & cutlery, linen & towelling (2 single beds), fan & mosquito net and braai facilities (firewood and firelighters available at additional cost).
