The Rensburg Spruit River flows peacefully past Sewula and ends up in the Bushman's River coming from the Giant's Castle area. The region has an important geological and palaeontological interest.

Sewula is particularly suited to small groups of family or friends or business colleagues who enjoy the informality of self catering with the benefit of helpful staff to wash up and generally assist. To assist you we provide a Provisioning service whereby we send a draft shopping list, which you return, and we do the rest.

Four en-suite cottages with sleeping lofts for children and young people provide beds for 8 adults and 10 children. Three of the cottages are twin-bedded with showers and one is a double with a bath and shower. The rooms are serviced daily.

There is a strikingly designed and comfortable Main Building consisting of a fully equipped modern kitchen, lounge with an open fireplace and dining room with a generous outside deck.

Many fossils are found in the region, mainly from human activities from the Stone Age San people and later from African Batnu tribes, Voortrekkers and English settlers. With other words people have been sleeping for over 1000 years on Sewula's soil.

Good water provision, grasslands and thorny bush protected by rock hills, this was the ideal place for the first humans living in the area.

The 14th century 'fortified hill site' or Rensburg Koppie National Monument, is the site from a clash between the Zulu and Voortrekkers in 1838. A stone is pointing out the what was once the N3 road. Here horses and mules were replaced en route between the coast and the inland. The region had also an strategic importance to protect Estcourt during the Anglo-Boer War. The sites can be visited during a 30 minutes walk.
