DirectionsWe are located in Mpumalanga, fenced into the Kruger National Park.
Capitol of Mpumalanga: Nelspruit
Travelling on the N4 highway you would go through Nelspruit come to a village called Malelane.
From the Malelane village you continue on the N4 for another 12kms after which on the left you will see our large white gate posts clearly marked BUHALA COUNTRY HOUSE, BUHALA GAME LODGE and KENWORTHY ESTATE.
Turn left through the gates, cross the railway line with care, continue for 2,4 kms and you will arrive at BUHALA GAME LODGE which has a common gate with the farm house. At this point you take the right hand fork to BUHALA and not the straight ahead road to the farm house.
(You do not turn off the N4 until you see our large white gate posts on the left.)
