Rated in 4 /
A four-bedroom house set in a beguiling landscape of granite boulders and bird-filled woodland, Khayelitsha offers a private-home experience for travelers to discover next-door Matobo National Park by themselves or with a guide.
Built from timber and decorated in a modern, eclectic, and stylish way, Khayelitsha is well-appointed for a family or group of friends to enjoy exclusive comfort and convenience. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor lounging space plus fireside couches, sunny viewing decks as well as a small pool. Solar power ensures electric light and battery recharging facilities.
Accessible via a short drive from the city of Bulawayo, the house sits on 240 hectares of private land, perfect for hiking and mountain biking. It also has a border with the Matobo National Park, one of Zimbabwe’s smaller reserves, and a magical blend of wildlife, scenery, and adventure. Home to many antelope species, warthogs, and monkeys, Matobo is also a haven for rarely-seen rhinos and leopards, and the bird watching is excellent. Guided game drives are available from Khayelitshe, and as there are no lions, elephants, or buffalo in the park, Matobo is also a good destination for walks and horseback safaris.
Highlights
Activities
A very special experience in the heartland of Bushmen Rock art and granite boulder landscape. Perfect for a couple of nights, still in bush surroundings but with a focus on hiking, mountain biking, and Bushmen history!
Rooms
Standard Room
There are four bedrooms at Khayelitsha, each with a bathroom featuring both a shower and a bathtub. Bedrooms are large and their double beds are swathed in netting to ensure a good night’s sleep. In-room facilities include a tea and coffee station and bar fridge; the lounge and veranda have views over the pristine Matobo landscape.
Facilities
Khayelitsha was designed with a large, active family in mind and the result is an open, airy, and sprawling home filled with indoor and outdoor dining and lounging space. Timber and stone stand out as the main construction materials, softened by leather couches, tribal art, and colorful touches. There is a small pool and plenty of room to soak up the sun or chill out in the shade. Using solar power, Khayelitshe has electric lighting and power for the kitchen as well as battery recharging facilities but note there is no cell phone or internet signal at the property.
Dining
A self-catering accommodation, Khayelitsha has a fully equipped and modern kitchen. Guests can choose to eat indoors or outdoors and there is a barbeque facility. Food and supplies can be purchased in nearby Bulawayo. If you book a full-day guided game drive in Matobo National Park, then lunch and drinks are provided.
