A self-catering chalet at Lion & Cheetah Sanctuary gives you the freedom to keep your own hours. Make breakfast in your private kitchen, head out on a guided sanctuary drive, then return to a place that feels yours for the evening.
Set in the Cullinan bushveld near Pretoria, these chalets are a good fit for couples and guests who like to arrange their own meals without giving up the setting of a wildlife stay.
A king-size bed and en-suite bathroom make a comfortable base for your stay. Tell us who is travelling and we will confirm the available chalet and sleeping arrangements.
Each self-catering chalet has a fully equipped private kitchen. Bring the food and drinks you would like for your stay, and ask us about any particular equipment you need.
The chalets are close to the lodge and swimming-pool area. An educational sanctuary drive is booked separately from self-catering accommodation, so you can plan the day around your own interests.
Photographs show a selection of accommodation at the sanctuary. Your reservation will identify the chalet and facilities included in your stay.
Book a sanctuary drive to meet the animals with a guide, or leave space for a Spa appointment. A self-catering break gives you room to do both without rushing back to the city. In the evening, listen for the calls that carry through the bushveld.
Start with the details that matter to you: the dates, the number of people and whether you would like a drive, Spa time or both. We can help you put the stay together while you keep control of meals and the pace of the day.
The sanctuary is in the Cullinan area, within reach of Pretoria and the wider Gauteng region. Request the arrival directions before you travel, especially if you will be reaching us late in the day.
Bring the groceries, drinks and everyday supplies you will need before arriving, then ask the team what is available on the property. A little planning means less time spent driving out for something you forgot.
Our self-catering chalets have a king-size bed, en-suite bathroom and fully equipped private kitchen. Confirm the exact unit and any equipment requirements with your reservation.
Self-catering accommodation is for guests who arrange their own meals. Ask about any lodge dining options you would like to add before arrival.
The educational sanctuary drive is not included in the self-catering chalet rate. Add it to your enquiry and we will help arrange a suitable departure.
Lions and hyenas can be heard in the sanctuary after dark. Some units are beside the enclosures, while the self-catering chalets have their own positions within the property. Ask about the location of your chalet if proximity to a particular enclosure matters to you.
The self-catering chalets are within walking distance of the swimming-pool and main lodge area. Ask us to confirm access arrangements for your stay.
