Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get to Klipkopje Farm?

Klipkopje Farm is located just outside White River town in Mpumalanga, approximately 25 minutes from Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport (MQP) and around 4½ hours' drive from Johannesburg.

The final stretch to the farm is along a well-maintained dirt road. Most standard vehicles can comfortably access the property, however exceptionally low vehicles are not recommended. During periods of heavy rainfall, a higher-clearance vehicle may be advisable.

Are children welcome?

We warmly welcome families to experience the magic of Klipkopje Farm together. For the comfort and safety of all our guests, we recommend that children staying at the tent are 12 years and older.

The tent and its surroundings have been thoughtfully designed to immerse guests in nature rather than to be child-proof. As a working farm, there are natural features to be mindful of, including open water, elevated decks, stairs leading to the fire pit, uneven terrain and free-roaming wildlife.

Children under the age of 18 must be supervised by a parent or guardian at all times while exploring the farm and using the facilities.

We understand that every family is different, so if you have any questions about whether Klipkopje Farm is the right fit for your family, please don't hesitate to get in touch—we'd be happy to help.

Can I bring my pet?

As much as we love animals, we kindly ask that you leave your furry children at home.

Klipkopje is home to a wonderful community of free-roaming wildlife and farm animals, and we want to ensure they remain safe, undisturbed and free to roam.

Is Klipkopje Farm suitable year-round?

Absolutely.

Each season offers something unique.

Summer brings warm days perfect for swimming in the dam, while winter offers crisp mornings, misty landscapes, cosy fires and peaceful evenings beneath the stars.

Is the farm private?

Yes.

The luxury tent is completely private and positioned to make the most of the surrounding landscape.

While Klipkopje is a working farm, your accommodation has been thoughtfully positioned to provide complete seclusion and uninterrupted views across the dam and surrounding countryside.

How many guests can the tent accommodate?

The luxury tent comfortably accommodates up to four guests.

Please contact us if you have any special accommodation requirements.

Do you host weddings or events?

Should you wish to enquire about private events, small celebrations or exclusive use of the property, please get in touch and we'd be delighted to discuss the possibilities.

What are your check-in and check-out times?

Check-in is from 2:00 pm.

Check-out is by 10:00 am.

If you require alternative times, please let us know before your arrival. We will always do our best to accommodate requests where possible.

What wildlife can I expect to see?

Resident animals include impala, zebra, blesbok, Egyptian geese, ducks, ponies, donkeys, peacocks and many other bird species that roam freely across the farm.
