Swimming pool

Volleyball

The court is close to the swimming pools. Bring your own ball.

Farmyard animals

Farmyard

Ducks, geese, turkeys and bunnies. You're welcome to feed the animals — they love carrots, lettuce and spinach.

Winkel shop

Shop

Everything you might need — ice cream, wood, ice, toys for the kids, and even exotic jams and patés. Putt-putt equipment can be rented here too.

Fishing dam

Dam

A big fishing dam with barber and blue kurper fish for catch and release — or just enjoy the bushveld sunset over the water.

Cocktail swimming pool

Pools

Please be considerate of other guests, including those with health conditions, when it comes to water temperature — let reception know if it seems off. The cocktail swimming pool forms part of the bar and is 18+ only.

Bookings

To secure your booking, we require:

  • Proof of payment emailed to bookings@whisperingpinesresort.com — no WhatsApp "photos" accepted
  • A 20% deposit within 48 hours of booking to secure it; full payment is required 1 week before arrival
  • December high-season bookings: 20% deposit, with full payment due before/on 18 December
  • Use your invoice number as your payment reference

If proof of payment isn't received, or payment isn't made for whatever reason, the booking will automatically be cancelled. Bookings with no deposit are cancelled after 48 hours, and we can't guarantee the same stand or tent house number will still be available afterwards.

Whether paying a deposit or a final payment, 25% of the total amount is always retained where applicable — see our Terms & Conditions for the full cancellation policy. Amending a booking may also incur a charge as set out there.
