Tegwaan Country Getaway

Tegwaan Country Getaway is a charming retreat situated in Waterval Boven (Emgwenya), Mpumalanga, South Africa. This family-operated establishment offers a diverse range of accommodation options, including three self-catering cottages, luxury glamping facilities, and four exclusive campsites, all nestled within a natural setting.

The property features several unique accommodations, including the Stone Cottage built with original property stone, the secluded Pine Cottage situated within a small pine forest alongside a stream, and the Acorn Tiny House designed to embrace outdoor living. Additional options include the Secret Garden Glamping experience, a converted chapel now serving as a studio apartment, and their newest addition - a rustic off-grid Tipi tent overlooking a dam with island views.

The retreat boasts numerous amenities including a spring-fed swimming pool, permaculture garden, and free-range chickens. The grounds offer breathtaking views and are home to old-growth trees, creating an ideal environment for nature enthusiasts. The property was acquired in 2017 by a Belgian-American couple who met during a rock climbing expedition to the area in 2010.

Tegwaan serves as an excellent base for outdoor activities, with easy access to rock climbing, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, and bird watching opportunities. The location is conveniently positioned just off the N4 highway, making it an ideal stopover point for travelers between Johannesburg and Kruger National Park. The establishment has been recognized with an Afristay Certificate of Excellence and maintains a focus on conscious living and environmental sustainability.
