CATEGORIES: Accommodation in South Africa » South Africa Conferences » South Africa Hotels » South Africa Wedding Venues » DESCRIPTION: Just 5km away from the Royal Bafokeng Sports Palace, one of the stadiums that will be hosting the 2010 Soccer World Cup, Kedar Country Hotel, Conference Centre & Spa offers 62 elegantly finished rooms and 7 fully equipped conference rooms. Some 20 years ago, Recreation Africa purchased a portion of Boekenhoutfontein, the historic farm of President Paul Kruger. Over the years, adjoining land has been acquired, culminating in the consolidation of an area of some 700 acres, which has been game fenced and populated with a wide variety of game, including eland, blesbok, impala, bushbuck, nyala, kudu, zebra, blue wildebeest and giraffe. Invaluable environmental work has been done to remove alien vegetation and restore the wetlands which attract prolific birdlife. The Metswedi bar in the evenings allows guests to partake of sundowners whilst watching the sunset over the natural bush. Other facilities include a large swimming pool, game drives and a curio shop. All this, just one and a half hour’s drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria, and only 15 minutes from Sun City and the Pilanesberg Game Reserve - home of the “Big Five”.
