Kloofzicht is on a small nature reserve featuring elands, warthogs, blue wildebeests, red hartebeests, gemsbok and zebras. There’s also a fly-fishing academy where visitors can rent a rod and cast off. On Sunday it hosts a stupendous buffet lunch with ‘cliff views’, which books out every week. The day spa is equally impressive. You’ll feel a long way from downtown Johannesburg.
The lodge is a convenient base for the Cradle of Mankind. It’s also particularly popular for weddings and with weekenders.
