Intaba Thulile
Intaba Thulile,peaceful mountain, is a 450 hectare private game farm within the Magaliesburg Nature Conservancy.
As it is within easy access to Johannesburg approximately 80 km west and some 90 km from Pretoria,it is a perfect distance forgetaway weekend for those seeking refuge from the rigors of urban stress.
The rolling savannah grassland plain, pristine bush, and the distinctive suikerbos and kiepersol tress are guarded over by the imposing amber cliffs of the mountain. With its abundant birdlife, and variety of trees, ferns, flowers and grasses, the reserve is a delight for birdwatchers and botanists.
It is a paintbox of colours: greens of every hue; reds, yellows, whites, blues and pinks of the many flowers. With a variety of buck as well as warthog, jackal, ostriches, and a pair of gorgeous, graceful giraffe, game viewers will not be disappointed.
We offer self-catering accommodation in lovely wooden chalets set amongst the trees and with stunning views of the mountain.
Simply relax on the comfortable deck and bask in the peace while you listen to the sounds of natureand gaze upon the unforgettable views; oractively explore the ancient kloofs, the cliffs, the crevices,and the extraordinary rock formations. We offer hiking, walking, mountain biking, swimming, game viewingand horse riding.

"The tranguality an mountain view from the chalet"
23 November 2020"loved the whole set up from the chalet, but a indoor braai for rainy days and a jacuzzi would definately make this destination a permanent holiday destination!!!!! the path to the chalets definately needs major improvements"

"Relaxing break"
12 October 2015"We had a wonderful weekend at Xhosa cottage. The surroundings are peaceful, yet the attractions of Magaliesburg are only a short drive away. We enjoyed the hike up the mountain, with most spectacular views. We found the cottage clean and well kept, and enjoyed the sparkling pool for a cool off."

"Excellent stay"
15 April 2013"The stay at Intaba Thulile was great. In the end I was almost sorry to leave. Even though we arrived very late at the chalet, upon arrival I found myself greeted by warm smiles by the host, Joanne. Intaba Thulile is an awesome place if you looking for peace and tranquility.. (the name 'Intaba Thulile' meaning peacful mountain, does do justice to the place. Thank you Joanne for the great experience. Will definately be back in the not to distant future."

"Peacefull Mountain!"
23 March 2009"We had such an awesome stay. Being the outdoor type we enjoyed the hike and we also brought out bikes along and rode around the farm which was great. The Cabins are very well equipped with everything you could possibly think of! The rooms and beds are comfortable and the views are great! I will certainly return this year again! These cabins are well priced and only an hour and a half drive from Midrand. Joanna was a super host and made us feel at home!"
