Carnarvon Dale, Amakhala

Carnarvon Dale offers settler hospitality for quiet relaxation and serene game viewing. Carnarvon Dale once provided lodgings for travellers whose journeys had been halted by the flooded Bushman’s River and in that same tradition of hospitality, Roger and Maryan Hart welcome guests to their 1820 Settler farmhouse, the Bottom House, and the 1907 Edwardian Top House. Carnarvon Dale is 3 star graded but offers wildlife enthusiasts 5-star game drives in a malaria free area on our award-winning Amakhala Game Reserve. For guests staying 2 nights or more, on the neighbouring world famous Shamwari Game Reserve, the latter is exclusive and by private arrangement and at no extra cost. Morning excursions to Addo National Park for a breakfast with the elephants can also be arranged. Carnarvon Dale offers comfortable, owner-managed accommodation and excellent game viewing at an affordable price.
