Robin unit at Da Gama Dam is approximately 18km from White River. Phabeni Gate at the Kruger National Park is 38kms away. Bushveld surroundings with a view of the Lake. Unit is quaint with each bedroom having its own bathroom. Full kitchen with dishwasher, fridge, stove, oven and appliances. Washing machine in a separate private laundry. Both outdoor fire and gas braai facility. This area is subject to electricity loadshedding and is only partially off the grid with emergency lights and gas cooking facilities. Tandem parking is available.
We are avid birders and enjoy the bushveld vibe that the Lowveld provides. Lowvelders for over 10 years, we enjoy the laid back mentality and friendly people.
Bushveld setting with views of the lake. Non-motorised water sports and fishing allowed on the lake. There are a myriad of walking and cycling trails on the Estate. Induna Adventure farm and world reknowned Kruger National Park at 38kms away.
