AWAKEN YOUR SENSES

ACCOMMODATION

SENSIRI MYST COUNTRY HOUSE

I had the most wonderful dream ever.  But, in this dream I was awake!  More awake than being awake!

Everyone I loved was there, fully there, inside a house of nature overlooking views made of hope.

We saw true colours of emotion and fields of fearless wonder.  And on the backs of heroes we explored the wild yonder.

Here time moved slowly – slower than the shadows in our hearts, giving peace a chance to grow deep inside of us.

Few have ever known the great secrets we were taught:  the art of flight within our hands reflecting at our feet.

And so I came to know that certain secrets are only known by the senses that we live by.

By sensing who we are.

DULLSTROOM EXPERIENCES

On a winter’s morning the countryside in South Africa where this house stands has the feeling of the Scottish Highlands.  There is a bridge with crystal clear water streams, inviting you to fly-fishing.  Soft mist is cuddling in the valley.  But as the sun greets the day warmly and the mist lifted momentarily it shows dragonflies dancing on the water. 
Suddenly it leaps out of the water, so briefly you almost missed it…  and then it was gone.  A soft ripple on the water – the only evidence that a moment ago a dragonfly was there… and the water returns to the calm before.  Slowly another dragonfly comes dancing to its reflection too.  But just as quickly another one showed itself – breaking the water just enough to show its magnificent spotted body in rainbow colours, before again one life melts into another.

You bring fur and feather together in a very sophisticated interpretation of nature, representing life itself.  And then, the fly line moving through the air, floating, unrolling, seemingly weightless, appearing to defy the law of gravity. With perfect finesse the fly lands on the water, almost a pure dragonfly through colour and shape. Then, the line snapping tight with lightning speed!  Muscle leaping out in a desperate attempt to be free!  But, for a moment, in your hands you hold the catch of your art, before you let it swim away, to meet again another day.

A Rainbow to change your life

With 11 pristine trout dams and over 4km of river frontage – this is fly fishing country at its best!

A Free Spirit

“There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man” - Winston Churchill

Sheer silence, total tranquillity, romantic luxury. From stargazing to intimate picnics in the veld – an extraordinary place to experience it all. Picnic baskets readily ordered from the Walkersons Hotel … or be creative and pack your own.

Bucket List Golf

Highland Gate Golf Course - the signature golf course designed by Ernie Els amongst the rolling hills of Dullstroom – a bucket list must do!

We all want more time to do the things we love, but sometimes we simply need enough time to breathe and ”just be”. The Walkersons Spa offers timeless peace and tranquility.
