About Us
The Bush Awaits!
Tucked away in a lush bushveld setting, the 400-hectare Zebra Nature Reserve offers guests warm South African hospitality for unforgettable bush breaks, corporate and private events, and a convenient first stop for incoming international travellers exploring our beautiful country. The reserve is ideally located just 30km from Pretoria and 85km from OR Tambo International Airport.
The property features three unique lodges, each with its own conference and dining facilities, African boma, swimming pool, and relaxation areas: Zebra Mountain Lodge, Zebra Stables Lodge, and Zebra Bush Lodge. Together, the lodges offer a total of 63 en-suite rooms, furnished with either double or twin beds.
In addition, we offer three secluded self-catering accommodation options, perfect for weekend escapes and family retreats. Each features its own pool, braai facilities, and a fully equipped kitchen. Zebra Villa includes five double rooms and four bathrooms, Zebra Cottage offers three double rooms and one bathroom, and The Cabin is our intimate option designed for two.
Key attractions include our unique Ndebele Cultural Village, a thrilling reptile centre experience, an authentic Shebeen event space, and a relaxing on-site spa. Guests can also enjoy a range of adventurous activities such as game drives and bush walks, kayaking, mountain biking, fishing, and kids’ activities.

Such a beautiful bush escape. I did a solo birthday trip here and it was honestly perfect, so peaceful and grounding. I even had a giraffe visit me...
Spent 3 nights at the resort. Excellent customer service. Very kind and professional caretakers, chefs, masseuse, waiters, and tour guides. The breakfast and Dinner were buffet style with a different menu each serving. Really had an amazing time. The full body massage was impeccable.
