The Cradle Restaurant
Dining
A modern architectural masterpiece in stone, steel and glass, the Restaurant is designed with retractable floor-to-ceiling glass doors on three sides that literally let the outside in. The long, wide verandah endows diners with a 180° view of the game-filled valley below, and uninterrupted views of the Highveld landscape beyond and above the blue, African sky.
