About Red Cliff Lodge

Life's adventures begin where the tar road ends! The Red Cliff Lodge is a family-owned off-the-grid eco-cabin offering intimate accommodation in Great Marico District which is well known for its crystal clear rivers, arguably some of the cleanest water in South Africa.

Self Catering Accommodation

The Red Cliff Lodge cabin in Groot Marico has been constructed in such a way that you will feel as if you are the only person on earth and the expression "cabin in the woods" certainly rings true however, the valley is surrounded by red cliffs which glow red in the afternoon sun and are quite a spectacle.

The cabin sleeps five guests in two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a well-equipped kitchen and dining area. The first bedroom is furnished with a double bed. The second bedroom has a tri-bunk bed with a double bed bottom-bunk and single bed top-bunk, sleeping three. The bathroom contains a shower over a corner bath, as well as a handheld shower attachment.

The windows have been fitted with mosquito screens and we have also fitted burglar bars to ensure that your supplies don’t get raided by our resident baboons and monkeys. The cabin is completely off-the-grid and operates off gas and solar, keeping it as environmentally friendly as possible.

The cabin has a stunning outside thatched lapa with a built-in braai and outdoor dining furniture. A cold-water splash pool is the perfect cool-down spot on extremely hot summer days, or enjoy the sun on one of the sun loungers.

You are welcome to enjoy our riverside braai area. Enjoy the peace, tranquillity and stillness that water rippling over the rocks brings.

Pets

Small pets are permitted by arrangement at no additional charge, however, they must be house-trained and socialised. Owners must pick up after their pets.

Attractions

There are several free roaming animals in the gorges and if you are quiet and lucky enough, they may just bless you with a quick sighting. These are kudu, rhebok, nyala, bushbuck and warthog. Baboons and monkeys are plentiful and it is said that there are still leopards in the area.

Experience the stars like never before. At night our countryside changes and offers you a totally new dimension as the Milky Way presents itself in full splendour. One can spend hours just lying and gazing at the stars. The silence is broken by the sounds of frogs chirping and the night jar calling. In the distance, you will hear the rivers and streams as well as the wind rustling through the trees.
