Hidden Waterberg gem

Perfect for a family break. Kids loved the walks, we loved the endless quiet and sunsets from the deck.

Accommodation Description

Idwala 'Le Ingwe Lodge offers two beautifully designed self-catering holiday homes in the heart of the spectacular Waterberg Biosphere. Perched atop rocky outcrops, both homes have been thoughtfully crafted to celebrate the raw beauty of their surroundings — blending natural stone, wood, and expansive glass to create light-filled spaces with endless views across the bushveld. Each home is stylishly appointed, featuring open-plan living and dining areas, fully equipped kitchens, comfortable bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, and private decks perfect for soaking up sunsets or stargazing. One home is suited for families or small groups, while the other offers a more intimate, couple-friendly retreat. With panoramic views from almost every room and outdoor braai areas, the lodge homes are ideal for travellers wanting space, privacy, and a real connection to nature — without sacrificing comfort.

Setting Description

Located within the Waterberg’s rolling hills and rugged beauty, Idwala 'Le Ingwe Lodge is an off-the-beaten-track escape where guests are surrounded by wide skies, rocky outcrops, and indigenous bushveld. It’s remote enough to feel wild, yet accessible enough for easy weekend escapes from Johannesburg. Whether you spend your days exploring the Waterberg or simply unwinding on the deck, the lodge promises complete tranquillity and true slow living.

What We Love

  • -Sweeping, uninterrupted bushveld views from both houses
  • -Beautifully crafted interiors that celebrate natural textures and space
  • -Outdoor entertainment areas perfect for braais and sunset drinks
  • -A peaceful, remote setting with no light pollution — just stars and silence
  • -Perfect for couples, friends, or families who appreciate privacy and open spaces
