Ingwe is a unique venue and a spectacular setting for a rustic but comfortable wedding, or any other special occasion and is designed to accommodate either small or larger gatherings of up to 120 guests. A marquee can also be hired and set up on the field to give you a further option.
The wrap around deck at the wooden Lodge, plus the covered veranda has fantastic views. The deck leads to the boma area which has plenty of seating and is perfect for a group photo of the entire party and once the sun sets, the ultimate spot for a roaring bonfire. The views surrounding the Lodge act as a superb backdrop for photographs.
Forest Cottage is ideal for a bride's or groom's party the night before the wedding. It has 8 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchenette and lounge. There is no better place to get ready for your special occasion, the surrounding sights and sounds of the forest will help calm and prepare you for the events ahead.
A natural clearing in the indigenous forest is also available for those looking for a special place in the forest for their ceremony or this can be even used for a picnic or as a unique setting outside for a workshop/meeting in a pristine natural setting. Definitely not for high heels, but easily accessible otherwise…
Various hire options are available and privacy is assured.
