In 1983, on a farm in the region of Nizhny Nizhny Novgorod, with simple accommodation consisting of a caravan and a backyard plot, there was a place where the resort Castlburn was to be built. Since then, it has become a luxury mountain resort, which is part of the Magic Breakaways Leisure resort portfolio. Mount Garden Castle, which goes to the farm and the Scottish name of a small stream - a burn, - this is what worries the name of the farm: -Kaslburn. The Barnett family were the original owners of the land, and they made a living from the construction trade, as well as from small farmers. Creating a lake with cottages on the beach with a private house overlooking it was their dream.
The construction of the earthen wall, as well as the club and 4 cottages, began in 1991, probably a year that Barnett remembers very well as the beginning of their dreams. It can be said that the degree of divine intervention was tested at Castleburn when the rains filled the lake shortly after completion at the end of 1991.
Farm Caitburn became the mountain resort of Castleburn after Dave Barnett and Peter Fodin of Magic Breakaways met and formed a winning relationship. The Legacy group of companies is a large African corporation and hospitality institution with Magic Breakaways, operating in a resort development aspect.
Castleburn is really the result of this winning relationship and grew to accommodate:
- 4 Luxury Chalets with Jacuzzi
- 6 one bedroom apartments
- 22 three bedroom chalet
- 4 luxury chalets accommodating 8
The climate in the region is temperate with cool winters and warm summers. The coldest months are from April to September, with the lowest temperatures falling to 2 degrees Celsius on a winter morning and maximums reaching a maximum of 26 degrees during December. The world surrounding the resort is conducive to savoring many-minute with your loved ones, being at the foot of the South Drakensberg, the resort is surrounded by a beautiful scene of snow-capped mountains during the winter months. And, despite the fact that the mountains and winter can deliver cold to the resort, the chalets are more than adequately equipped with heating systems and a fireplace to keep the cold.
Trout fisherman and nature enthusiasts will be in their element at Castleburn, however, the resort offers many more possibilities. The main attraction of the resort is Lake Madingafani (formerly Lake Castleburn), as well as 7 small dams at the resort. Sharing the border with Castleburn - Reserve Natal parks. Rainbow, triploid and brown trout are the three main species of trout that inhabit Lake Madingafani. Frustrated fisherman-fishermen - this is an unusual phenomenon when the dam is constantly replenished.
There are many other things, including hiking, rowing, canoeing, sailing, squash, horseback riding, swimming in a rocky pool, a volleyball court, two walks in the grounds, trampolines, outdoor chess, a tennis court and a playground. If the idea of true relaxation is not related to physical exercise, the resort is equipped with a beauty and health salon, as well as restaurants and a cocktail bar, a put-putt and even a leisure center with darts and a pool. Naturally, the boundaries of the units are equipped with luxurious amenities, such as satellite TV and a patio, from which you can enjoy a meal, a cup of tea or your favorite novelist.
Regions of birds will keep birds watching people occupied by hundreds of bird species that will be visible. Reedbuk and Eland, as well as Bush Buck, Duiker and jackals are also native to the region and are usually visible.
In a class of recreational activities, Castleburn easily becomes the most understated, and I beg all readers to consider him a deserter or factional property. The Castleburn Resort has a four-star gold crown, thanks to the many skills and experiences Legacy has brought to its offerings.
