Spotted around Tomjachu - the White-fronted Bee-eater.

One of the more colourful visitors to the Lowveld, these birds are easy to recognise by their bright green bodies, red throats, and flashes of blue on their wings. They’re often found near water, where they catch insects mid-air - especially bees and other flying insects.

Listen out for their soft, chattering calls as they move through the trees, usually in small groups.

Originally the family home of Gordon and Vikki Fillery, The Homestead remains a central part of Tomjachu today.

Set amongst gardens with views over the surrounding bushveld, it offers a relaxed and comfortable stay for individuals, couples, and small families or groups.

The Homestead includes three individual bedrooms - one in the main house and two in the garden wing - each with its own private veranda. Guests can enjoy an à la carte breakfast on the veranda overlooking the Bekker Mountains, and in the evening, a three-course dinner in the Homestead dining room after sundowners.

Shared spaces include comfortable living areas and a swimming pool with views across the reserve.

Tranquil waters at South Dam.

Just a short walk from the Homestead, our largest dam is a peaceful spot to spend some time in nature. It’s home to a variety of birdlife, including Knob-billed ducks, Spur-wing geese, Giant Kingfishers and African Fish Eagles. You might also spot terrapins on the rocks or water monitors moving quietly along the edge.

A simple, quiet place to slow down and take it all in.
