Member Pieter Pretorius joined our club in November 2022 when he took over as Managing Director at Buffelsdrift Game Lodge. He might still be new to the Lodge, but his passion is evident and contagious. Pieter and his team at Buffelsdrift Game Lodge look forward to hosting you in their luxury tented accommodation.
It’s the simple idea of offering all our guests the breakaway they deserve.
