Cas Da Willa Lodge

Cas Da Willa Lodge is a 15-hectare farm located in Kathu, "the village under the trees," in the Northern Cape, South Africa's largest province with the smallest population. It offers various amenities and is suitable for families, friends, conferences, seminars, or weddings. Each room has an en-suite bathroom with a shower, air-conditioning, a bar fridge, DStv (hotel suite), and tea- and coffee-making facilities. The lodge has braai areas inside and outside, as well as amenities in the huge garden, including a swimming pool, a splash pool for children, darts, a pool table, and table tennis.

Breakfast and dinner are served daily in the dining room, and take-away meals for breakfast and lunch are also available. There are two fully licensed pubs, a large wedding venue with an outdoor chapel, and a well-equipped conference room with facilities such as a data projector, screens, and a sound system. The lodge can accommodate birthday parties, annual and themed dances, matric farewells, and other special events, with catering services available. Special discounted rates are offered for large bookings and special events.

The lodge promises peaceful, comfortable, quiet accommodation and a true rural lifestyle in a tranquil environment. It is known as the "hidden gem of Kathu" by regular visitors, and much of its marketing over the past ten years has been through word-of-mouth from former guests. The lodge is located 6.2 kilometers from the Shishen Golf Course, rated as one of the top 20 golf courses in South Africa and home to the annual Kalahari Classic as part of the Vodacom SA Tour.

Kathu serves as a great base for exploring the Kalahari region, including Kuruman, the Miracle Caves, Bushman's Gate, and Moffat Mission. It is also an ideal overnight stop for guests traveling to the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Augrabies Falls, Namibia, and Namaqualand, known for its wildflower displays. Small game such as birds, meerkats, red mule dogs, and turtles can be found around the lodge. The Northern Cape is becoming a popular tourist destination, offering an alternative to crowded areas.
