Magical Getaway - The Most Beautiful Middle of Nowhere - Eastern Free State

Posted on Sat March 7, 2020.

A Magical Getaway - the Most Beautiful Middle of Nowhere - Amohela-Ho-Spitskop in the stunningly scenic Eastern Free State Highlands - is indeed balm for the soul. Surrounded by nothing but the earth, the sky, and the mountains, it's the most perfect escape from...essentially everything outside its glorious bubble.

 

The MOST BEAUTIFUL MIDDLE OF NOWHERE  –  where  at most 25 beautiful souls can escape in style to an EXCLUSIVE RE-WILDED HIGHLANDS RETREAT – remote yet accessible, set on 164 hectares - where guests have unhindered access to roam a privately owned mountain and you can wander and climb and picnic and walk and cycle whilst barely seeing any other being.

A haven to escape to the BEST GETAWAY for weekends - the BEST GETAWAY as a family - a magical ESCAPE for the long and beautiful days of school holidays - those upcoming long weekends

Our cosy self catering cottages are delightful in every way, the swimming reservoir is fabulous (and has the most incredible views), the bird song is a beautiful cacophony, the bird and animal life, the wonderful re-wilded fields filled with wild flowers, wild pollinators, native plants - is extraordinary.

The native shrubs and trees now tall and strong in the protected environment that is Amohela ho Spitskop - sitting gazing around you, perched on a rock high on the mountain side, one imagines a giant hand appeared in the night and started to splash the beautiful colours of Africa around, touching these leaves here, a branch there, some tiny plants hiding have also been found and are filled with the wonderful colours.

The mornings are amazingly beautiful -  the lower valley filled with  magical morning mists that drift away in shafts of sunshine.

This "Most Beautiful Middle of Nowhere" with magnificent views across the valley to the Maluti Mountains beyond, set on 164 hectares of a Re-wilded Conservancy - here guests have unhindered access to roam a privately owned mountain and walks are laid out on the flatland.

Indeed, the most perfect escape from...essentially everything outside its glorious Amohela bubble.
