Overview

Breathtaking Oribi Gorge, just 25 minutes inland from Port Shepstone, has been described as the African Grand Canyon. The comparison is indisputable as you view the Mzimkulwana River winding its way through lush green Wilderness between the rocky gorge walls.

Paul and Leigh Langton invite you to the three guest houses on Oribi Gorge Guest Farm, situated on Oribi Gorge, within easy reach of Shelly Beach, Uvongo, Margate and Ramsgate - the strip along the Indian Ocean that is one of Southern Africa's favourite seaside resort areas.

The Oribi Gorge Guest Farm features three guest houses, the Shuttleworth House, Nerrily Cottage, and Lindile Lodge. All are fully self-catering, with no shortage of modern appliances. They share equally in comfort and homeliness, but differ widely and beautifully from each other in their decor and theme. All 3 free standing units are fully furnished and require no additional utilities. The kitchens are fully equipped and consists of everything that is needed to cook up a storm. Linen and bedding provided. The lounge and dining room areas are fully furnished.

The Langton's sugarcane farm is bordered by the Oribi Gorge Nature Reserve and a walk or short drive will take one to spectacular views of the Gorge, one of the continent's truly unspoilt beauty spots. Most of the photos on this page were taken from the Oribi Gorge Guest Farm overlooking the Oribi Gorge Nature Reserve. There is a second gorge nearby through which the Umzimkulu river flows, making Oribi flats where the farm is situated a picturesque plateau between two river valleys.

Once you've checked in at Oribi Gorge Guest Farm you'll be able to make daytrips to Port Shepstone, Shelly Beach and the rest of the coastal beach communities. The nice thing is that no matter where you go you'll never be very far from your home on the farm. Game viewing at Lake Eland Game Reserve is part of the Oribi experience, and you only have a to go a few km from the farm to enjoy it. See blesbuck, red hartebeest, kudu, impala, blue wildebeest and zebra. Keep your eyes peeled for reedbuck, bushbuck, blue and grey duiker, oribi, cerval cat, giraffe and lynx too. Other nearby activities include hikes in the Oribi Gorge Nature Reserve.
