Gorah, the first private concession in a National Park, is a premier lodge set in the heart of the 14 000 hectare malaria-free Addo Elephant National Park which is home to the densest elephant population on earth.
Accommodation
The romantic atmosphere of the spacious and luxurious tented suites, recalls the golden era of safari in the early 1900's; yet with the comfort and excellence associated with Africa's finest game lodges.
The gracious main house, built in 1856, has been immaculately restored and period furnished, recalling the opulence and romance of noble safari.
Lazy colonial verandas spill out onto the African plains, and the luxury tented suites with thatched canopies, comfortable king-sized beds and private terraces perch over the panoramic landscape – personalised, warm and unobtrusive service with meticulous attention to detail, are the hallmarks of a Hunter Hotels property.
The Gorah House - Restored to its 19th century colonial splendour and period furnished, the main house reflects a noble opulence and delivers the meticulous service and attention to detail that characterises Hunter's properties.
Dining
Dining is by candle-light in the elegant dining room, or on its lazy verandas overlooking the waterhole.The sounds of the bush create a magical air of peace and tranquillity, broken only by the splashing of water as the animals arrive to drink under the cover of darkness.
Guests can relax in the boma area with its beautiful rock swimming pool and sun-drenched decks. Experience the African tradition of cooking and eating under the stars.
Wildlife
Whether experiencing the majesty of elephant herds gathering by the waterhole, or encounters at matchlessly close range, the Gorah experience is totally unique. With arguably the best elephant viewing in South Africa, Addo is also the domain of the Cape Buffalo, Black Rhino, numerous antelope species and a wealth of bird life.
