Slievyre extends to 5000 acres and offers you the chance to explore the bush at your leisure using any of the 70kms of internal roads.
A 4x4 is the most popular method however guests are also welcome to bring their quad bikes, motorbikes and mountain bikes, all we ask is you ride with regard to both yours and the animals safety and stay on the maintained roads.
Unguided walks can be taken in safety on the reserve as there is no dangerous game. We also have several marked trails starting from the camp gate. Feel free to stroll off as you please!!
Several of our dams contain Bass and Tilapia, guests who are staying with us are welcome to fish free of charge, just bring your own tackle!!
Enjoy a guided game drive in our purpose built 10 seater game viewer and get up close and personal to many species of plains game and our ever growing herd of giraffe.
Facilities at the camp include a large swimming pool with adjoining children’s pool, trampoline, jungle gym, DSTV with DVD library, lawn games, board games and books.
There are plenty of opportunities to spend time bird watching at Slievyre, you don’t even need to leave the garden to see numerous species, however because the terrain of the farm varies dramatically so too does the habitat for our bird populations. We have recorded over 250 different species and are sometimes treated to some less commonly seen species for our area including European Rollers, Fish Eagles, Beeeaters, Spoonbills, Martial Eagles and Vultures. We are very proud to have a pair of breeding Blue Cranes that return each year to successfully raise their young on the farm.
