The team from Euphoria Golf Estate & Hydro invited us to visit the estate and join in the golfing fun. We took the R101 - the old Warmbaths road - which spared us a lot of toll gate money and which also cared for a lovely scenic drive. Once you are through Hammanskraal - which is an informal settlement - you drive a short distance to Warmbaths. The new name is Bela Bela. Here you will find a few restaurants; curio shops and supermarkets. There are also many accommodation option in and around Bela Bela. It was however the hottest part of our journey.
Travelling through Bela Bela we head for Nylstroom - the new name is Modimole. The road is single and has a dodgy shoulder - but there are also fruit stands on the side of the road and a few fruit farms. When you reach Nylstroom, head straight through the town towards Naboomspruit or Mookgopong. Follow the signs towards this town and look out for the Euphoria entrance on your left.

The estate has been open for just one year but it seems settled and roads are well maintained and suitable for even the smallest car. Be sure to bring you golf clubs as this has a course designed by Annika Sorenstam - a ladies golf champion.

The estate boasts a cable car of which it is second of its kind in South Africa - after the cable car in Cape Town. It is a beautiful ride to the top where one can enjoy meals.

Conferencing and weddings are made special with views of the golf course and natural lighting in the conference venues.
Euphoria also has a unique golfing academy, aimed at children from 8 years old.The name is said to come from the word euphorbia, which is a tree called the Naboom. Hence the next town Naboomspruit which directly translated means Naboom River.
There are also 4 spa villas which in essence are 4 separate treatment rooms, watch with a plunge pool, outside shower, treatment room overlooking the bush, changing room and bathroom. The therapists are very professional and a wide range of treatments are available at a good price. While hubby is on the golf course, luvvy can enjoy a massage and manicure.
