WildCroft20 is No. 20 Wood Ridge Forest Estate which is on the same grounds as Mt Shekinah Country Hotel. Wood Ridge Estate is very central and close to all the midlands has to offer. Michael House is next door, Nottingham Road is 10Kms north and Piggly Wiggly is about 10kms south and Midmar Dam just little further on. With Gowrie and Boshoek Golf courses close by and many other activities only a stone throw away you will be spoiled for choice.
