About Us
Where Good Fishing, Food, and Friends Unite!
Escape the rush of city life and reconnect with nature at The Kingfisher Country Cottages & Trout Lodge – a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Mpumalanga, just 2½ hours from both Johannesburg and Pretoria. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful retreat, an exciting fishing adventure, or a memorable weekend with loved ones, Kingfisher offers a unique blend of comfort, sophistication, simplicity, and relaxation.
Set in a scenic landscape of rolling hills and tranquil waters, the lodge is a haven for avid fly-fishermen, nature enthusiasts, couples, and families. Our pristine trout dams are well-stocked and offer some of the most rewarding fishing experiences in the region, making it an angler’s paradise.
But Kingfisher is more than just great fishing.
Take a leisurely walk to our spectacular 100-meter waterfall, where natural rock pools below invite you to cool off, picnic, or simply take in the beauty of the moment. Towering cliffs around the falls are home to breeding colonies of the endangered Bald Ibis, making it a birdwatcher’s delight. And best of all – we’re pet-friendly, so your four-legged companions are welcome to share the experience.
Our cosy country-style restaurant is the heart of the lodge, serving hearty breakfasts, relaxed lunches, and delicious dinners made with local flair. Whether you’re gathered around the table with friends or enjoying a quiet meal for two, the warm and friendly atmosphere makes every meal feel special.
Unwind with a drink from our fully licensed bar, and browse through our on-site shop stocked with essentials, treats, and fishing supplies. Planning a relaxed day outdoors? Let us prepare a picnic basket for you — perfect for a no-fuss lunch in the countryside or beside the dam.
Accommodation includes comfortable, well-appointed cottages that blend rustic charm with modern comforts, ensuring a peaceful night’s rest after a day of fishing, hiking, or simply doing nothing at all.
Whether you come for the fishing, the food, or the friendships you’ll make along the way, The Kingfisher Country Cottages & Trout Lodge promises an unforgettable getaway where nature and hospitality come together in perfect harmony.
Come create lasting memories — we can’t wait to welcome you.
