Comments, Rules and Notes

  • Articles: Wildside, 4 of 4 edition 2007, pg 41 (they have not mentioned the camping sites, though they will be doing another article in April this year.) Farmers Weekly, 14th March 2008, pg 50 - 52
  • Comments: The campsite is a wonderful alternative to staying in the cabins. Staying at Clearwater is about the friendly family atmosphere, enjoying time in nature and of course doing some physical activity such as mountain biking, walking or hiking. We are ideal for one group of 16 (max) wherein the central are provides home comforts with a large catering kitchen and covered veranda to meet or dine in. We also cater for corporate groups of max 30 people where both the cabins and camping areas are exclusively booked. A variety of team-building exercises can be arranged on site or close by.
  • Additional Comments: Bush Camp on a farm that borders the Umtamvuna Nature Reserve
  • Special rules: Soft radio music allowed. Unplugged instruments allowed
