Zeldie - Well, it was just a suggestion - I really don't know any areas in Central SA - as I said previously, I've spent roughly the past 7 years in Namibia and prior to that I lived in the Cape!! :-)

I thought it was central enough but if it's too far, then don't worry.

According to the link:

Accommodation is in fully equipped chalets on the shore of the dam, and there are caravan and camping sites. A bush camp is even closer to nature.

I'm not sure of the rates though - I don't have a phone (long story)!

Hope some more people have got ideas?
