Details

Thornycroft Lodge is nestled in the heart of Horseshoe Valley, on a large country estate resting on the banks of the Nahoon River, and adjacent to a private game reserve. The surrounding hills and lush landscape cocoon you in a bubble of tranquility, separating you from the city of East London, which is only a 10 minute drive away.

THE LODGE
An ‘outdoor living’ approach, coupled with uncomplicated designs and natural tones, creates a relaxed atmosphere where you can really put your feet up, taking in the sounds of the valley.
Our spacious guest suites make maximum use of natural light, with large sliding doors opening onto the gardens. Each suite features a queen size bed, safe and clock radio, a separate living area with home entertainment system (TV / DVD / Surround Sound), overhead fan, fridge/mini-bar with complimentary tea/coffee, and a private bathroom.
The separate living area also features a sleeper couch, which can accommodate up to two children under 13 years.
Guests are welcome to make use of our mini video library, either in their room, or in our mini-cinema, at no charge.
Suites are serviced daily and laundry and babysitting services are available.
Full English gourmet breakfasts, light lunches and exquisite three course dinners are served in the dining room or, weather permitting, al fresco.

THE SPA
Our spa offers a range of health treatments for men and women, designed to de-stress and rejuvenate. Massage treatments are most popular and range from R100 to R180. To experience absolute bliss, combine one of our massage treatments with a sauna or jacuzzi soak.

ENTERTAINMENT AND FACILITIES
The thatched poolside bar is the heart of the lodge and the ideal way to end the day. Enjoy a game of pool, darts, table tennis or Nintendo WII, or catch your favourite sport on the big screen. Relax in the hammock with a drink, or soak up the sun on a lilo in the pool. For something a little quieter, enjoy a film in our mini-cinema, or settle down to a good read in the winter lounge, absorbing the warmth of the fireplace during the colder months.
Other activities on offer: swimming, badminton court, nature walks, bird watching, airstrip for flying model aircraft (bring own aircraft), mountain biking (bring own bikes), river and dam fishing (bring own fishing tackle), boat outings on the Nahoon Dam* (tubing and fishing), horseriding nearby*, paintball nearby*, pristine golf courses nearby*

DIRECTIONS
We are about 3km’s from the Amalinda exit on the N2. Take the N2 in the direction of King William’s Town. Exit at Amalinda. At the top of the exit turn right. This takes you back over the highway. At the T-Junction turn left into Voortrekker Road. After about 400 m you will see our sign. Turn right into Thornycroft Road. Follow the sharp bend to your right at the bottom of the road. Continue on this road (part gravel) for about 2km’s, staying right where the road forks. Pass through a gate and cross the causeway over the river. After the sharp left bend you will see the lodge ahead on your right hand side.
