Located a mere 2.5 hours outside of Johannesburg, in the sprawling landscape of Carolina, Mpumalanga,

Doornkop Fish & Wildlife Reserve boasts spacious self-catering chalets which are tailored to fly fishing and family holidays.

The Reserve is nestled comfortably amongst rolling hills and sweeping, soft green plains; a true escape from the hustle and bustle of city-living.

Get back to nature and the spectacular outdoors with a range of activities to suit every mood. Anglers have a choice of eight, well-stocked dams at which to spend their sporting days, while families and loved ones can enjoy the scenic routes on foot or by bicycle, equipped with a delectable picnic basket to accompany the view from any one of Doornkop’s panoramic and ideally situated lookout points.

The rustic, thatched self-catering units at Doornkop Fish & Wildlife Reserve were designed with family and entertainment in mind.

Soak up brilliant sunlight, which streams through the ample, paned windows on a lazy afternoon spent reading with a refreshing beverage at hand.

Relish in the company of friends and family in the setting of a private boma with night skies gleaming above and the glow of a bonfire casting warmth. Breathe the fresh, crisp air in the early hours of the morning along a dam with strong coffee and enjoy perfect brunches on a private patio overlooking the babbling brook or still waters of a dam.

Every moment spent at Doornkop is worth etching as a memory into the fabric of family-living.
