Clarens is a small town surrounded by its main attraction mountains. Especially since the village itself is situated in the foothills of the Maloti Mountain range of the Kingdom of Lesotho. The never-ending landscape of mountains such as the Rooiberge, the range encompassing Clarens and Maloti, also spelt Maluti is just some of the town’s tourist attractions. The sandstone cliffs are also a characteristic feature not only in the geology of the town but also in its architecture as most private or guest homes in the Clarens Valley are made from or clad in sandstone, and even the Golden Gate Highlands National Park has sandstone formations.

Segaia Bush Retreat is a small charming lodge situated in the bushveld in the carefully managed 1200 ha Buffelsdrift Conservancy in northern Gauteng. Our Conservancy is well stocked with game, blessed with prolific birdlife, and is infused with that unique African magic found only in the bush. Segaia Lodge has a watering hole right in front of the lodge where wild game come to drink. Enjoy, therefore, stunning African sunsets on the deck whilst watching zebra, kudu, impala and warthog wandering the grounds of the Lodge. A lucky few may even spot the reclusive leopard. Segaia is a small lodge that can accommodate up to 24 guests. Although our units are self-catering we can provide services, including TV, upon request. Segaia Lodge’s stylish and luxurious interior design reflects the fine taste of its well-travelled Swiss owner. There is an eclectic mix of Afro-chic finishes, European furniture and antiques from around the world. Each beautiful piece carries its own story, and the owner has brought them all together to create an environment filled with warmth and charm.

Scenic

Chapman’s Peak Drive is affectionately known as “Chappies” and is a must for anyone who is passionate about the majestic Cape Town scenery, with sheer drops to the sea below and towering mountains rising above you. The twists and curves in the road seem endless and it is a photographers dream. It is a paradise for motorists, sightseers, picnickers, runners, hikers and bikers (both the motorised and the manual varieties).
