About this place

A cabin under a balancing rock, with a plunge pool. Silozwane Rock Cabin sits in Matobo Hills, balancing rocks and rock art. The place is looked after by a resident team who know the area well and are happy to help with directions, firewood and local guides. Rooms are simple and well kept, with good beds and proper linen. Power is backed up so lights, Wi-Fi and fridges keep running during outages, and water comes from the property's own supply. Evenings are best spent outside by the fire.

The space

Bedrooms open onto a shared veranda. The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering, and there is covered seating outside for meals.

    The solar kept everything running through a long evening power cut and the borehole water was strong. Hosts met us at the gate and had the fire laid.

    Spotlessly clean, comfortable beds and a kitchen that actually has sharp knives. Check-in instructions were clear and arrived two days before.

    Great value for a family. The children lived in the pool and the caretaker lit the braai for us each evening.
