Phalaborwa Kokobela Lodge - Hans Merensky golf and wildlife estate. Luxury self-catering accommodation in Hans Merensky golf and wildlife estate.
Sleeps 8 - Serviced daily - Free use of private golf cart. Sleeps 8+ in 4 huge en-suite bedrooms
3 of the 4 bedrooms walk out onto a wooden deck which stretches along the entire west side of the house, overlooking a natural forest / bush (as called in South Africa). This is the perfect place to enjoy a quite early morning cup of coffee or a late afternoon sundowner with your friends or family. The 4th bedroom walks out to the fountain in the garden courtyard where you will find a bench under a tree, the ideal spot for reading.
The kitchen, lounge and dining areas all walk out onto the outside pool patio which is only a few paces away from the 7th fairway. Half of the patio is covered by thatch and the other half is open which provided the perfect spot for sunbathing next to the private swimming pool which is cut into the patio. This is probably where you’ll spend most of your time when you're not playing golf or out on Safari.
The bathrooms all have double vanities, a shower and a toilet. Two of the four bathrooms have a bath as well and one of these also walks out into an outside, secluded, shower.
There is 1 three-seater sofa and 1 four-seater sofa in the lounge area as well as a big screen TV, DVD and CD player as well as satellite TV.
The dining area has a 10-seater wooden table. The fully equipped kitchen houses everything you would expect: an oven and hob with extractor fan, large fridge-freezer, microwave, toaster, kettle, etc. With plenty storage space and granite work surfaces throughout. There is a separate, out of view, scullery which houses a dish washer, washing machine and tumble dryer.
For your convenience a daily cleaning service is provided at no additional cost. There is no need to fuss over cleaning the braai (barbeque) yourself either as it will be cleaned for you as part of the daily service.
Impala roam the golf course and can usually be seen grazing around the house, while families of monkeys play in the trees. Kokobela really is the perfect place to relax, day or night.

Golf
At Hans Merensky you have the opportunity of playing on one of the top 20 golf courses in South Africa while viewing the abundance of wildlife that frequents it. This golf course is a real must for any golf fan that loves the bush. The course, which shares its entire eastern border, and was once part of the Kruger National Park, is centrally situated in the Valley of the Elephants. A fence generally prevents the animals from roaming onto the course but the wildlife is able to enter via the clubs private game reserve to the south. Don't be surprised if you stumble across a giraffe determined to share the fairways with you and join your golf party!
