Escape from the pressures of modern life and retreat to Kagga Kamma, located in the peaceful southern Cederberg Mountains. Away from mobile phones, traffic pollution, highways and city lights you will breathe a sigh and enjoy the silence and starlit skies.
The stunning location of the lodge was once home to the
Bushmen, today many of their ancient cave paintings are still clearly visible
on the rocks, (some dating back 6,000 years).
This spiritual land offers spectacular scenery, majestic
mountains, strange rock formations and phenomenal night skies, where the Milky
Way, billions of stars, planets, satellites and shooting stars may be seen by
the naked eye.

Bushmen Lodge
Bushmen Lodge offers a choice of accommodation; there are
five spacious en suite thatched rondavels, suitable for families with children.
There are also ten unique 'cave suites'; these have a
private terrace, en suite bathrooms and twin beds. Built against the mountain,
the buildings blend perfectly with the surrounding landscape, to the point of
almost being invisible.

The lodge has a restaurant for breakfast and lunch and an
outdoor lapa for dinner under the starlit night skies. There is a cosy bar and
an outdoor garden perfect for relaxing and sipping a cool drink.
Interesting rock formations surrounds the sparkling swimming

souvenir of your stay.
