Absolute comfort and quality family time along the Swartspruit River or a Doornkop Dam. Soak up brilliant sunlight, which streams through the ample, paned windows on a lazy afternoon spent reading with a refreshing beverage at hand.
Relish in the company of friends and family in the setting of a private boma with night skies gleaming above and the glow of a bonfire casting warmth. Breathe the fresh, crisp air in the early hours of the morning along a dam with strong coffee and enjoy perfect brunches on a private patio overlooking the babbling brook or still waters of a dam.
Every moment spent at Doornkop is worth etching as a memory into the fabric of family-living.
