Just under an hour’s drive from both Pretoria and Johannesburg, Carlsruhe Private Game Reserve invites guests to unwind in a tranquil bushveld setting rich with wildlife and unspoiled natural scenery.
Located near the renowned Premier Diamond Mine in Cullinan, home to museums, shops, restaurants, and a golf course, this farm-style retreat offers a unique blend of rustic charm and immersive nature experiences. Expect a diverse array of wildlife, farm animals, and a variety of bird species that add life and colour to the surroundings.
Carlsruhe Private Game Reserve offers a selection of self catering luxury farm style houses in the beautiful bushveld. Please see the individual room descriptions and photographs below, to assist you with your choice.
To make the most of their visit, guests are encouraged to bring along their own swimming towels, binoculars, mountain bikes, and hiking shoes. Whether enjoying the golden light of early morning or winding down in the evening, the deck presents the ideal setting for a quiet cup of coffee or a sundowner, accompanied by views of grazing game and the soothing sounds of birdlife.
Firewood and ice can be purchased on-site at an additional cost. Secure parking is available behind locked gates, with a limited number of open garages also on offer.
Upon entering the reserve, guests are often welcomed by sightings of golden wildebeest, sable antelope, nyalas, zebras, kudu, and even giraffe, just a glimpse of the wildlife that calls this place home. The reserve offers a variety of activities to suit different interests, from guided game drives and invigorating hikes to the excitement of clay pigeon shooting. For those seeking to cool off, a swimming pool provides the perfect place to relax on warm afternoons.
