On 1st December 2001 we opened Oliver’s Restaurant & Lodge and with full support from our locals in particular, and so many other wonderful guests, have grown from strength to strength.
Building on the support of our valued customers, we have been able to develop our business and completed an extension to Oliver’s by constructing another 6 Luxury rooms which opened in November 2004.
Our philosophy is to extend a warm welcome to anybody entering our little haven and to let them unwind in a peaceful and tranquil setting, spoil them with mouth-watering dishes together with professional, personalised and friendly service.
“Home away from home atmosphere with Austrian Gemütlichkeit!”
Surrounded by the lush forests of the Mpumalanga province, Oliver's is situated on the secure White River Country Estate and overlooks the first green of the 18-hole championship White River Golf Course.
The intimate comfort of our establishment and our beautifully appointed rooms allow our guests to experience the marriage between Austrian flair and subtle African influences. Award-winning cuisine is offered with continental and Mediterranean dishes from our a-la-carte menu served with only the finest wines from our well-stocked wine cellar. Fun-dining with fondue and raclette may be enjoyed in the privacy and irresistible romantic ambience of our wine cellar.
To rejuvenate the weary, one can relax poolside or be pampered at the in-house "Wellness and Beauty Clinic".
Oliver's is within close proximity of the world-renowned Kruger National Park (25 km) as well as the Blyde River Canyon with panoramic drives along the escarpment and lies in a Malaria-free area. The nearby Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport (KMIA) (12 km) gives easy access from and to any major city in South Africa and internationally. The area is well known not only for its superb temperate sub-tropical climate summer as well as winter, but also for its many scenic and adventurous attractions.
We cater for all functions i.e. weddings, special family occasions, conferences, wine tasting, etc.
