Christine Curnow & business partner started Chestnut Country Lodge in Sept 1995. We left the city life for the Lowveld to enjoy nature and wildlife. We found an old farmhouse in the farming district of Kiepersol. The magnificent views, bird-life and peaceful surroundings as well as the location were perfect. We converted the existing buildings into suites and rooms. The past 18 years we have been rewarded with amazing guests, some who return again and again to enjoy with us our little piece of paradise. The tourism industry took a massive knock due to the pandemic and we went under new management and the experience of change and growth has been amazing , we are expecting plenty of new exciting upgrades and growth and we are looking forward to sharing this with our guests
Situated on the doorstep of the world-famous Kruger National Park, in the middle of the beautiful Panorama Route and within striking distance of Mozambique’s beaches and Swaziland’s verdant mountains, Chestnut Country Lodge is the epicenter of adventure! Choose from our comprehensive menu of tours and activities and create the holiday of a lifetime.
