The glass venue among the acacia trees

The spaces

The iconic glass venue

A light-filled sanctuary of glass and steel that frames the Lowveld like living art.

Inside the glass chapel

The glass chapel

Say your vows in the light

Step into our famous glass chapel, where clean modern lines frame the acacia trees and endless sky. The glass walls bring the outside in, creating an ethereal setting where the light is always perfect for your “I do”.

With seating for up to 200 guests and a sculptural glass pulpit, the chapel is a ceremony space that feels both grand and intimate.

The glass venue and lawns

The patio & lounge

Golden hour, welcome drinks in hand

Flow seamlessly from ceremony to celebration on our glass patio. Guests gather in soft lounge pockets with a welcome drink and harvest-table canapés as the sun slips low over the grassland.

It is the effortless heart of the day, where indoor and outdoor blur into one long, easy exhale.

The reception hall set for dinner

The reception

A table set for celebration

As evening falls, the reception hall comes alive. Our in-house team styles every table with bespoke florals, luxury linens and designer place settings, then serves a five-course plated menu that is a celebration in itself.

When you are ready to dance beneath the stars, the boma and its firewood are waiting.
