Satvik is a wonderful laid-back and rustic farm where time holds its breath and fish eagles are framed by seablue skies.
Set in a nature reserve on Tzaneen Dam, Satvik is surrounded by misty mountains and lush fruit plantations. Rustic two bedroom cottages and self-contained houses lie scattered between the trees, and down at the water’s edge there’s a pizza oven, a braai and sunset-stargazing terraces.
