About the Property

Hidden deep within the dramatic folds of the Cockscomb mountain range lies a property that feels untouched by time—an authentic Eastern Cape hunting sanctuary where rugged wilderness, abundant game, and mountain tranquillity come together in perfect harmony.
This is not simply a farm.

It is a legacy destination—a place where international hunters return year after year, where water runs pure from mountain springs, and where every sunrise breaks over cliff faces and valleys alive with game.

Hidden deep within the dramatic folds of the Cockscomb mountain range lies a property that feels untouched by time—an authentic Eastern Cape hunting sanctuary where rugged wilderness, abundant game, and mountain tranquillity come together in perfect harmony.
This is not simply a farm.

It is a legacy destination—a place where international hunters return year after year, where water runs pure from mountain springs, and where every sunrise breaks over cliff faces and valleys alive with game.
Unspoiled Game-Rich Terrain

The farm spans diverse terrain—deep kloofs with freshwater springs, rolling mountain ridges, river frontage, and natural bushveld that has remained largely undisturbed. This diversity has created a natural haven for a remarkable variety of game.
Current stock estimates (informal):

• Kudu – ±200
• Mountain Reedbuck – ±80
• Impala – ±50
• Bushbuck – ±50
• Grysbok – ±50
• Klipspringer – ±50
• Duiker – ±40
• Warthog & Bushpig – ±50

A landscape this pristine has become a magnet for international hunters—mainly from the United States and Europe—who value both the exclusivity of the terrain and the quality of the hunting experience.
Detailed financials for the past two hunting seasons are available on request.
Water Security: A Rare Asset in the Region

This farm is exceptionally well-watered, supported by three independent sources:

• A natural mountain spring in the kloof, supplying fresh, reliable water to the lodge and upper dams.
• Two boreholes capable of running on electric pumps.
• The Kwazunga River, which meanders along the lower valley.

This combination ensures year-round livestock, lodge, and operational stability, with the additional ability to farm sheep or cattle if desired.
Well-Developed Infrastructure With Expansion Potential:
The farm boasts established infrastructure, perfectly suited for both commercial hunting and private retreats:

Main Lodge:
A warm, rustic lodge nestled at the base of the mountain, serviced by fresh mountain water.
Staff Accommodation & Outbuildings:
• Large garage with an attached staff bedroom and bathroom
• Tool shed adjoining the garage
• Dedicated long-term team members, who have been the heart of the farm for 25 years and are highly recommended.

Mountain Hunting Cottage:
Halfway to the ridges lies a private hunting cottage—unfinished, offering an exciting opportunity to complete it to your own taste. The structure requires roofing and interior finishing but holds potential as a mountaintop retreat for premium hunting guests.
Untapped Potential for a New Owner:
• Expand hunting revenue by running your own PH operation
• Available Accommodation to attract high-end safari clients
• Premium eco-lodge or retreat spaces - big corporate events, wedding to intimate family gatherings.
• Explore future energy or tourism-based income, subject to approvals
