THE HEART OF HILLHOUSE

Our Story

Madikwe Hillhouse Lodge is the private retreat of owner Vance Kershner, made available intermittently throughout the year. Because we are not a commercial venture, our focus remains on the authentic guest experience - making you feel thoroughly spoilt while remaining completely at home.

  • Comfort in the Wild: Enjoy full air-conditioning and solar-powered operations.

  • Modern Luxuries: Stay connected with available Wi-Fi, and enjoy amenities including international plug points, hairdryers, and pool towels.

  • The Gardens: Explore a botanical paradise developed over 70 years, offering a manicured calm just steps away from the untamed wilderness.
