The Waterberg is one of South Africa’s most rewarding winter escape destinations, with crisp mornings, sunny afternoons, clear blue skies and golden bushveld sunsets.

Set inside Koro Creek Bushveld Golf Estate, Bokmakierie Place gives guests a comfortable, private and spacious base for exploring Modimolle, the Waterberg and nearby attractions. It is close enough for a quick weekend trip from Gauteng, but far enough to feel like a real escape.
Winter in Limpopo is made for outdoor living. The weather is cooler, the skies are clearer and the bushveld has that calm, golden atmosphere that makes weekends feel slower and more restorative.
