What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.

We were there for 2 nights for our Anniversary. The accommodation was 5 Star, the view was outstanding and we had a wonderful private and peaceful weekend in the Bush. I would recommend Thulani Lodge for a romantic weekend get-away from city life. Would definitely go back. John and Vickie.
