Come and discover Jakkelsroep Akkommodasie — where wildlife roams freely, sunsets paint the sky, and the bush welcomes you home.
Welcome to Jakkelsroep Akkommodasie
Featuring a private bushveld retreat where nature, comfort, and tranquillity come together. Situated on Jakkelsroep Plaas 76, approximately 40 km from Pretoria and only 7 km from Dinokeng Nature Reserve, our property offers guests the opportunity to escape the noise of the city and reconnect with the beauty of the African bushveld.
Located in a malaria-free area, Jakkelsroep is the perfect destination for couples, families, friends, nature lovers, birdwatchers, and anyone seeking a peaceful getaway surrounded by wildlife and open skies.
A Peaceful Bushveld Escape
At Jakkelsroep, we believe that true relaxation begins with nature. Our farm is home to free-roaming wildlife including impala, nyala, zebra, ostrich, and blesbok, which can often be seen grazing near the accommodation and waterholes.
Wake up to the sounds of birds, enjoy coffee while overlooking the bush, spend your days exploring the farm, and end the evening around a crackling boma fire beneath the stars.
Accommodation for Every Kind of Traveller
We offer a variety of accommodation options, from fully equipped self-catering units to luxury glamping tents and spacious campsites. Whether you prefer the comforts of a private chalet, the romance of a tented retreat, or the adventure of camping, Jakkelsroep has something for everyone.
