Elephant Leisure Resort \ Accommodation in Citrusdal

Appointed 7km from Citrusdal, Elephant Leisure Resort offers a unique setting and wonderful views across the Cederberg Mountains and Sneeuberg Conservancy (which is often covered in snow in winter). Although a 'resort', the result is a relaxing and calm atmosphere.

Accommodation

It comprises a total of ten neat chalets, of which four are two-bedroom ensuite units, the balance made up by one-bedroom units. The larger cottages have open-plan living areas and gas fireplaces - gas can be bought on site. The smaller units are also open-plan, with double doors opening onto a terrace that's tailor-built for sundowners, braaing and wallowing in your private Jacuzzi.

All the cottages are fully equipped, with linen and towels supplied, as well as TV, gas fireplaces, air-con and equipped kitchenettes. What's more, all spill out to excellent views and are adequately private. Did we mention that each cottage comes fitted with its own Jacuzzi?

Back at the ranch, there's a jungle gym for gran and the kids, as well as a communal swimming pool fed by 30-degree pure spring water that's forced under its own pressure through a calcium formation below - never imagined you would be swimming in Evian, did you?

Meals

Hot or Cold Breakfast options during the week are available (school and long weekend holidays are excluded), but need to be booked and paid when making accommodation booking.

Meals besides breakfast are available on request for groups of 10 and more and a variety of menus can be sent to you or you can also make up your own menu.

Venturing further afield Citrusdal has one or two decent eateries and a host of outdoor attractions.

Activities and Attractions

Now for the activity list, which runs long. While most of your day is likely to be spent on the stoep, between nursing your braai and navel-gazing in the Jacuzzi, the fact that the resort is situated in a wide valley between beautiful mountains and weird and wonderful rock formations lends it to excellent walking opportunities. There are apparently over 850 fynbos species in the area, which in turn attracts an array of bird species, which in turn attracts doddering species lugging cameras and binoculars, which in turn... "And so the slow gentle cycle of life is perpetuated" - uttered in your best Richard Attenborough accent.
