Camp Details
A welcoming, contemporary space, based around a central courtyard and inviting swimming pool, Melton Manor is about the sharing of meals, laughter and experiences. Looking out over the Afromontane forests and hills beyond, the grand views are complemented by the simplicity of the design, and a variety of indoor and outdoor spaces are ideal for slowing down and relaxing into Manor life.
The four bedrooms are all accessed from the courtyard yet remain entirely private. All have large verandas, enormous beds, and butler hatches for that all-important morning coffee. In the bathroom, generous bathtubs and showers are perfectly positioned in front of large windows, inviting you to a soak up the bushveld beyond. Inside the main living area, a personal chef will whip up delicacies in the farm-style kitchen.
