Many of the hotels and safari camps in South Africa we feature can be classed as hideaways, especially in the game parks as many camps and lodges feel blissfully isolated.

We have selected our favourite hideaways in South Africa, from luxury escapes in the Northern Cape to remote safari camps in Madikwe and from Cape Winelands boutique hotels to off the beaten track beach retreats in Kwa-Zulu Natal and mountain bolt-holes in the Drakensburg.

There are some superb boutique hideaways in South Africa and also some of the most luxurious boutique hotels in Africa.
