Imagine EASING into the summer of 2019 and dreaming of your POT OF GOLD in an awesome dwelling for just two people where 200 million year old sandstone enfolds you.

Standing at our Look Out point on the iconic Spitskop Mountain, a stunningly beautiful African morning looking East towards the majestic Maluti Mountains, in the Eastern Highlands of the Free State.

Today I followed the awesome footprints and paths made by some of our many Porcupines here at Spitskop. It was an AMAZING INTERESTING learning curve, how these beautiful gentle vegetarian creatures with little stumpy legs attack the steep rocky surface, coming all the way down......then going all the way back, in the dark hours of night, for they are night creatures.

The awesome SkyWind Self Catering Cottages are built on a ridge with views over the scenic Eastern Free State to the majestic Maluti Mountains beyond, the view from the king size beds across the vast, quiet landscape creates a magical morning wake up experience.The open plan spaciousness, with beautiful pampering baths and enclosed sandstone shower and toilet, a fully equipped kitchen, a weber braai on the patio-with-a-view, all come together to define this awesome dwelling place for just two in indulgent quietness, space and luxury.

At this time of the year we await the arrival of the real 'long haul' summer visitors to Amohela ho Spitskop Conservancy. Within the next few weeks we shall greet some familiar old friends who make the long long journey to us.
