Here our dream began

Just a few hours by car, due north of Port Elizabeth, you'll find one of the most game rich hunting areas in all of South Africa. In 2010 we purchased the 3.000 hectares large Greylingskraal situated in a malaria-free mountaineous area. Here we began to make an old dream of creating our own hunting paradise come true.    

Luxury in the middle of South Africa's diverse nature

Surrounded by magnificent and untouched land we have rebuild the old farm with luxurious, airconditioned guesthouses which all have Spa baths, Flat-screen TVs and a minibar, a lagre swimming pool and magnificent lappa (thatched shelter) where we eat, meet and have a good time. We also have a large terrace where relax between the hunting excursions and enjoy a glass of wine from out exquisite wine cellar.   

Everything here is buildt by materials from the area and you will easily feel that you have become a part of nature when you live here.  The surrounding terrain is ondulationg and has a very varied vegetation. The Vogel River and a handful of lesser streams run through our land and in conjunction with a number of pools of varying size. They are the basis of our large population of more than 50 species of game. If you want to enjoy the terrain from horseback you are most welcome to do so using one of the farm's horses.  

The name "MALPEPO"

Contrary to what many visitors think, our company name is not of African origin, but actually an acronym made from the initals of our family members names: Mads, Lene, Per and Poul.   

We look forward to welcome you in our beautiful little paradise.

Yours sincerely 

Lene and Poul B. Petersen

Tours and excursions

South Africa is a land of opportunities and it offers a wide selection of fantastic experiences. Are you into action and adrenalin? South Africa offers both bungy jumping, helicopter flying and whale safari. But if you are into more calming and relaxing experiences, we would like to recommend a trip to Cape Town or one of the many fantastic wine yards in the area of Eastern Cape.
