Winter / early spring beauty here in the bush

The chill has left us and the glorious warm golden days are here. Each season in the Waterberg has it's own charm and this is one of my personal favorites....Tanya

Guest Reviews

"Hi Guys / Girls, Just a short note of thanks to all involved over the past weekend . Our stay was awesome and we appreciated all the personal touches for our aniversary! The food was top notch and all the bits of advice were much appreciated and helped us find our seats real quick. I know you guys really did a great job in boosting Chantell's confidence and she will be a better horsewoman after her stay. She has learnt a great deal in a very short time. Experiencing the day to day life was great and also very interesting and eye opening at the same time. For me it was nice to spend some quality time in the saddle as it has been a while , hope you didn't notice !! I couldn't have wished for a better start to the weekend than being chucked straight into a game of polocrosse as it was top of my agenda for the weekend although I never mentioned it .Also a note of thanks for the use of the guide's personal mounts ( thanks Kirst ) , we both really enjoyed our horses and couldn't wait to see who we had been partnered with for the next ride! You guys have a great team at Horizon and the horses are stunning ( I did have my favourite though ) , so this is cheers till next time cause we will be back so Kirst look after MY horse and don't teach him any bad manners !! Thanks once again." Charl & Chantell

"I was worried about returning to somewhere I had been before, as I had such a fantastic time previously. I should never have been concerned. The staff may have changed, but the 'formula' is still the same. Whenever you go to Horizon it feels like you are coming home. Can't wait to go back. Thanks again for all your hard work, especially my last-minute questions." Mandy from Co Antrim

"Just to say we had a fantastic time at Horizon. We were a little concerned that it wouldn't live up to expectations a second time round but Horizon surpassed itself. We were also worried that our friends wouldn't enjoy it as much as we did (as they hadn't been before) but they loved it and said we had undersold it to them. Horizon is a special place, a great atmosphere, being looked after and spoilt with plenty of good food, long sandy tracks to canter on and they have a great ability to match you with their lovely horses." Julia from Bradford

"Far exceeded my expectations. Absolutely fantastic. Good selection of horses to ride. Never laughed so much playing polocrosse. The swimming is the best riding experience I have ever had."...."Chocolate Brownies to die for." Emma from South Yorkshire

“The horsemanship was fantastic, as were the horses. Far outweighed my expectations.” G.R., London, UK.


“I had never been abroad on my own but with your welcome I was never alone.” Angie, Glous., UK.


“10 minutes - that's about how long it took for me to feel at home.”Geoff, London, UK.


“There are co-workers, cooks, stable hands and an office, but it takes time to distinguish guests from staff. Obviously the staff do less lazing around but the atmosphere is inclusive, sociable and open.”TimeOut Magazine.


“Staying at Horizon is like staying with friends, everyone is so friendly and helpful. We absolutely loved it.”C.K., Herts., UK.


“Horizon has succeeded in creating a professional product wrapped in an informal parcel.”Sam, travel author, London, UK.


“This has been one of the most beautiful holidays I ever had.”Andrea.
“Thank you everyone for making our honeymoon exceptionally special and memorable.”Mark and Ali.


“You arrive as a client and leave as a friend so we feel.”Inger and Jan, Sweden.


“Most people ask, "Where is it?" - that's the point: a century ago and still today, the Waterberg is South Africa's last great wilderness.”David Bristow, Getaway Magazine.
