Marulani Game Ranch - Bela Bela

If you love nature and want a share in a private nature reserve, then you can experience this magnificent game ranch 365 days of the year in the heart of the bushveld. The Waterberg Mountains offers nature at its best, only one and a half hours from Johannesburg and the area is Malaria free. This 1200-hectare game ranch can be viewed in your own personal Land Rover whenever you want to go on a game drive. The main house sleeps 12 persons and the guest chalet sleeps another 4. Solar power and borehole water makes the property self-sufficient and independent of municipal services. There are 41 homes sharing this 1200-hectare ranch and your house comes fully furnished, ready to move in, apart from your personal items. (Included is: - Bedding, cutlery, crockery and pots/pans)

This bush-lovers paradise hosts a wide variety of bird and animal life including many antelope species (kudu, impala, nyala, klipspringer, wildebeest, bushbuck, waterbuck, red hartebeest) as well as zebra and giraffe. The reserve is also home to many of the smaller mammals which you would expect in a typical savanna/bushveld biome such as warthog, bushpig, porcupine, brown hyena and jackal to mention a few. A decision was made by shareholders to exclude large or dangerous animals in order for families and children to be able to jog, cycle and walk around the farm in safety. However, a leopard has occasionally been spotted and it is believed the farm has hosted a number of her litters over the years.

The reserve is managed by a board of directors and employs a fulltime farm manager, several laborers and a number of security rangers. Shareholders are charged monthly levies which go towards maintaining the farm’s roads, fencing, water reticulation, security, general upkeep and animal husbandry.

Shareholders utilize Marulani primarily as a holiday home or for weekend breaks as it is ideal for nature lovers who want to get away from the rat race without having to travel too far to do so. The common facilities include 1200 hectare game farm with 2 dams, animal feeding areas, picnic areas, benches and lookout sites.

The area around Marulani boasts an abundance of wildlife, including the Big Five, and many eco-tourism sites, adventure and other opportunities including golf courses, guided game drives, watersport, cheese farm, horse riding, spa facilities, craft beer, crocodile farm, rehabilitation/wildlife centers, ziplining, hiking trails, country restaurants and pubs.

Marulani 21 is a CC that include the house and everything in it, including the game viewing vehicle and a share in the game ranch. The levy include the insurance on your new home.
