Mbewa Cabins B & B and Self catering

Mbewa Cabins is situated just off the N4, approximately 14 km from Zeerust in the heart of the Marico bushveld. Mbewa is an excellent stopover en-route to the Okavango Delta in Botswana and the fishing waters of Namibia, or simply as a breakaway from city life.

Accommodation comprises one fully equipped self-catering, two-bedroom chalet sleeping up to five people, as well as three chalets sleeping two people. Each chalet features tea and coffee-making facilities, a fridge, en-suite bathroom, heater, electric blanket, and fan. The chalets are located around the swimming pool and private barbecue area under lush shady trees, and meals and picnic lunches are available by prior arrangement.

Mbewa Cabins is located on a private farm with walking trails, game viewing and bird watching all available on site. A tranquil bushveld environment with total privacy is guaranteed, while major attractions such as Sun City, Pilanesberg National Park, Madikwe Game Reserve and Groot Marico are conveniently located within a 130 km radius.

    16 November 2015

    "We had a nice relaxing stay at Mbewa Cabins. Nicely decorated stone thatch cabins. Lovely outside pool area.<br />"

  • "IJskoud"

    15 August 2015

    "Gn accommodatie om 's winters te verblijven. De verwarming is namelijk absoluut ontoereikend. Door de zeer grote hoeveelheid vele metershoge bomen kwam er gn straaltje zonlicht in de rondavel, waarin wij sliepen. Het wandelpad was totaal onvindbaar. Toegang tot internet was uitsluitend aanwezig bij de eigenares "op schoot". Wij moesten kennelijk blij worden van de liefst vijf aanwezige, erg opdringerige honden. Het tweepersoonsbed met elektrische deken was prima, de inrichting van de rondavel was verzorgd.<br />"

    14 July 2015

    "I needed some peace and quiet to get some writing done. Mbewa Cabins was the perfect place! The cabin was very cozy. Everything was there. I love birdwatching, and on my walks (or just sitting outside my door), saw all sorts. The Braai was fantastic. Annalien, the host, was most helpful. I highly recommend this destination!"

  • "Peaceful Setting"

    06 January 2015

    "We spent our final night of our holidays at Mbewa Cabins travelling back from Botswana to Bloemfontein. I was a bit concerned at first about it being away from town but is a quick 10Km trip if you need anything. The cottages are absolutely wonderful, very neat and clean, well equipped kitchen and fully stocked bar bridge. The setting, you could not ask for anything more if you just want to unwind and relax. You have a lapa, braai area and swimming pool all at your disposal. We were the only guests that night so had everything to ourselves. Annelien and her husband were very friendly and welcoming.Thanks for a lovely stop over."
