About Zwakala River Retreat

About Zwakala River Retreat

Zwakala River Retreat is a beautiful place where the simple things in life matter. Situated on the banks of a fresh water stream high up in the magical Magoebaskloof mountains of Limpopo, it is the earthy cottages,the indigenous flowers and herbs, the candlelight, cosy log fires, and long river walks that draw one in to a slower pace of life where you can simply just be and let yourself enjoy. We also have a farm venue perfect for weddings or gatherings. Zwakala Brewery is our newly established craft brewery on the farm - enjoy a tour or a tasting or the breath taking views from our tasting r



Wedding Venues: The farm offers a beautiful old farm venue for functions and weddings of up to 150 people. Ceremonies take place under the enormous old trees in the terraced garden overlooking the valley. Warm, arty feel.

We feel refreshed and... Read more

Had a wonderful stay at the Honey House at Zwakala, added bonus that we got to bring our dog with us. It was the perfect blend of comfort and simplicity, we nejoyed the walks on the farm, swims in the river and drinks at the brewery. Denise was such a warm and friendly host, we will definitely be back!

What a wonderful experience, the sounds of flowing water, the smell of the pine forest. An absolutely amazing getaway, wonderful views and everything you need for a rustic camping experience.Just you and nature, I would recommend this campsite to anyone.As an added treat a beautiful outdoor shower with views of the river.

My partner and I had an amazing weekend at Zwakala River Retreat, it’s the perfect getaway weekend for a quiet, out in nature experience. We enjoy the more rustic, basics type of accommodation and the Honey House was just what we were looking for. The hosts were very accommodating and friendly to add on top of everything.
