What an experience!! We can’t think of any other place in the world where we would rather have spent our first day as a married couple!! We felt like a king and queen of our own castle. The Ruby suite is out of the world and over the top wonderful, the whole atmosphere makes you feel like a child again.
The food is an artistic and taste experience, and Manie gives attention to the smallest detail.
I would highly recommend Flycatchers Castle. We will definitely return on our first anniversary (or maybe sooner ;-))).

We recently booked the entire castle for a murder mystery weekend over halloween. The setting is beautiful in the Panorama route of South Africa's Mpumalanga province, with Kruger park, Bourke's Luck and God's Window all literally just around the corner(s).
The castle itself, as one may deduce, is not historic, although it is built from reclaimed materials which give it a wonderful aged feel, which is further complimented by art deco (in a good way). The castle is decked out beautifully, both inside (including sculptures and paintings from the owner/manager artist) and in the adjoining gardens. Each of the six rooms (4 doubles; 2 suites) has its own theme, including en-suite facilities and stand-alone baths. Particularly spectacular is the Ruby Suite, in "Arabic" style, complete with it's own plunge pool, arboretum and mirrored (!) toilet.
The food and service is excellent- a four course dinner (bring your own wine) and splendid breakfast. All the food is cooked fresh, and indeed in front our your eys in the open kitchen. It was excellent quality and special accommodations were made for members of the group with dietary restrictions.
The castle even has it's own chapel, complete with a 7 foot high Jesus which appears to have been modelled on Chuck Norris. An excellent place to stay, particularly for romantic getaways or groups of friends. |

I would like to congratulate Manie, from Flycatcher Castle with the excellent experience we have had during our stay in August. We really felt like royalty upon arrival and this continued throughout the time period of our visit. The meal course which was served to us was absolutely divine and out of this world! The castle in a whole was gorgeous and I would really recommend Flycatcher Castle to anyone who is looking to relax and be treated! |
