About Black Eagle Lodge

Tucked away in the Overberg Mountains outside Caledon, Black Eagle Lodge offer a tranquil farm-style retreat just 90 minutes from Cape Town. Revive your soul, surrounded by nature, from the privacy of these beautiful self-catering lodges, spaced nearly a kilometer apart, on the mountain slopes of a working farm, hidden halfway between Caledon and Botriver.

Awake to the call of the sugarbird and unwind on an expansive verandah, overlooking a spring-water dam and rolling wheat fields. Take the edge off hot summer days in pools of cool spring water and warm up winter nights beside a blazing log fire. Count the stars with the children and teach them to fly-fish, collect frogs or spot a black eagle.

ACCOMMODATION

Our original self-catering Lodge accommodates up to six people, with a loft above the fireplace offering an inviting sleeping area for two extra children. Rustic yet with comfortable beds and crisp cotton linen, this cosy Lodge overlooks a spring-fed dam and is half a kilometre away from the new Villa, ensuring complete privacy.

Features include a boma-style enclosed barbecue/braai area, 3 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (1 en suite) and open-plan living area with stone fireplace. Being eco-friendly, there is no electricity, however solar –powered lighting and plenty of candles are offered.

There is a wood fired hot tub where you can relax, soak and absorb the view.

Catering

Both Lodge and Villa are self-catering and the town of Caledon is a 15 minute drive away and has well provisioned supermarkets.

Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.
