The Homestead Uniquely designed to connect people to the profound potential they have for positive impact.

The Homestead is a zero-impact lodge, sustainably built
amidst a preserved historic landmark set against the
backdrop of the humbling natural beauty of 23,000 acres
of Nambiti’s private Game Reserve. We combine seemingly
different parts of the wonders of South Africa to create
an integrated experience that links together wildlife,
history, traditions, wellness, community, food, culture and
conserv

ation. While our game drives are an incredible and
unforgettable part of The Homestead experience, we offer
a myriad of activities and adventures that are designed to
stir your soul, fire up your imagination and spark a deeper
sense of curiosity. And through all these experiences, you
may also discover how we as individuals have the potential
to positively impact our own lives, the lives of others
around us and the world we all live in.

✨ The Homestead main lodge connects a beautiful, natural escarpment to an active watering hole at the other end. The roof is planted using the same grass that covers the nearby grasslands to add a layer of natural harmony to its design and allow it to blend perfectly into its surroundings. ✨

Aloe spectabilis

❇️ Native to KwaZulu-Natal
❇️ Has antibacterial and antibiotic properties so can be used for bee stings, insect bites and other medicinal purposes.
❇️ Grows 10 leaves a year, so by counting the leaves on the plant as well as the dead leaves on the trunk you can work out exactly how old it is. On average takes around 80 years to grow to a meter.
❇️ Is eaten by Kudu and Eland in the dryer months and Elephants love them

The Yellow-billed Stork:

⭐ These birds can grow between 95-105 cm, weigh around 1,900-2,300 grams, with a wingspan of 150-165 cm.

⭐ During breeding season their white plumage becomes a delicate pink colour.

⭐ Their preferred feeding method is to stand in knee-deep water along the edge of reeds, stamping their feet, in search of frogs, small fish and other aquatic life.
