Coach House

The Coach House is in a wonderful natural setting near Agatha, near the Limpopo Town of Tzaneen. The hotel is steeped in rich colonial history and offers a majestic natural setting in one of the highest rainfall areas in the northern part of South Africa. The hotel is five hours from Johannesburg and an hour and a half from the Phalaborwa entry gate to the Kruger National Park.

Guests are accommodated in 38 well-appointed en suite rooms, of which nine are suites, 21 are premier double rooms, and five are classic single rooms. Each room and suite has its veranda with sweeping views of the Drakensberg Mountains. The rooms are invigorated daily with fresh flowers, homemade biscuits, and spring water. The premier rooms and suites have log fireplaces that offer comfort and warmth on cold winter nights.

For a meal akin to a fine morning feast, select fresh fruits and other delicacies from the buffet or a delicious cooked breakfast on the verandah overlooking the pool. Lunch and dinner offer an explosion of flavors with locally sourced ingredients that have been masterfully combined in wonderful dishes in the Zeederberg Restaurant. The Broken Anvil is the Coach House's wine cellar, boasting a wide range of local and imported wines. The John Buchan Bar is just the place to be for a pre-dinner cocktail. Surrender yourself to tranquility at the Agatha Spa, where guests can access steam rooms, a gymnasium, and a heated pool. For surplus magic, grab a ready-made picnic basket for a stroll in the gardens and enjoy the many private vistas.
