A Farmhouse that was restored and has so much history! Warm, homey feel with fireplaces and wooden floors. Meals are served at the main manor house. Facilities include the spa, rim flow pool and the Heritage room where drinks and snacks are served. The Heritage room has artwork that tells the story of Sanbona. The suites are separate to the Manor house – extremely spacious, with large glass doors opening onto a patio, offering endless Karoo views.

Tilney Manor is another accommodation beyond our expectation. We spent just one night (and two game drives) but it deserves a longer stay. The Environment and atmosphere are quite different but attractive. Drives were good with some special white lions. Wine here is amazing.
