Winter in the bush has its own kind of charm. Clear mornings, golden light through the trees, crisp air, and evenings that call for a fire and something warm to drink.

At Summerplace, winter is a wonderful time to come away for a few days, to enjoy the quiet beauty of the Waterberg, comfortable accommodation, good food, game drives, walks, and time to simply settle into the season.

Whether you’re here for a weekend or a longer stay, winter brings a slower, softer side of the bush that’s well worth experiencing.

There’s a certain kind of comfort in the afternoon light. The warmth of the sun, the quiet view out over the bushveld and a moment to sit back and enjoy where you are.

Come enjoy the warmth, the view and time in the bush at Summerplace.

Wildlife is part of everyday life at Summerplace. From quiet sightings in the grass to animals moving across the reserve as the light changes, these moments are always part of the experience of being here.

No two days look the same, and that’s what makes time in the bush so rewarding. Sometimes it’s a close encounter, sometimes it’s a distant glimpse, but it always reminds you that the wild moves at its own pace.

Come experience the wildlife and enjoy time in the bush at Summerplace.
