As you look over the grassy plains, watching the zebra graze blissfully on the grass, with the picturesque setting of the Paul Kruger farm in the background, ones mind wanders back to the days of the past. Some 20 years ago, a portion of Boekenhoutfontein was purchased, the historic farm of President Paul Kruger. Over the years, adjoining land has been acquired, culminating in the consolidation of an area of some 700 acres, which has been game fenced and populated with a wide variety of game, including eland, blesbok, impala, bushbok, nyala, kudu, zebra, blue wildebeest and giraffe. Invaluable environmental work has been done to remove alien vegetation and restore the wetlands which attract prolific birdlife. Conference facilities include the Boekenhoutfontein room (150 cinema style), the Molotlegi room (30), the Kruger room (20) and Kukama 1 and 2 rooms. A traditional rondavel-shaped royal meeting house - a Kgotla - seats 40 and houses authentic Tswana antiques and historical artifacts dating back to the Iron Age. The entrance to the Kgotla is “guarded” by a Tswana warrior sculpture, created by renowned artist, Adam Madebe. Price Info:
