Eingedi Retreat is a family friendly 2 Star exclusive self-catering establishment, located on a 530Ha game farm in the South Eastern Free State between Ladybrand and Hobhouse, with beautiful views of the Maluti Mountains. We run this facility on biblical principles, and our slogan is taken from John 8v37-38: RIVERS OF LIVING WATER. We promote peace, quietness and tranquillity, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The summers are warm and winters crisp with cold nights and mild days.

Eingedi Retreat caters for up to 60 guests in accommodation comprising 8 chalets and 3 wooden huts. All chalets are fully equipped for self-catering purposes with their own kitchenette as well as bathroom. Each unit has braai facilities with outdoor table and benches.

We offer walks; 4x4 guided game drives on our Unimog to view the many species of plains game; 2 swimming pools; braai facilities; numerous small dams for picnicking, 2 of which are stocked with fish; a playground and trampoline; as well as many farm animals for the children to enjoy. Cycling enthusiasts on mountain bikes, can enjoy viewing the game, and train on various surrounding circular routes. Guests can go on self-guided 4x4 and 2x4 game drives. The family friendly resort, caters for guests of all ages who enjoy nature and the outdoors.

The latest venture is the registration of a 2-day Green Flag hiking trail. Guests are welcome to register for a day hike while visiting the Retreat.

We have limited WiFi, no cell coverage in the immediate surrounding and no television. We promote wholesome activities and do not tolerate alcohol abuse, loud music or irresponsible behaviour.

We also offer conference facilities; buffet breakfasts (with many of our home-made goodies) from Sunday to Friday (office closed on a Saturday); as well as a 3 course buffet/carvery lunch the first Sunday of the month. Much of the farm produce is preserved and for sale in the form of chutneys, jams and pickles.

Our prayer is that you will leave Eingedi Retreat refreshed, restored and re-envisioned as you enjoy what this beautiful piece of our Father's creation has to offer.
