Accommodation

LUXURY TENTED CAMP

The Luxury tented camp which currently accommodates 12 people is situated on a plain with views of the mountain/and or bush. The camp is unfenced so you can safely experience nature up close and personal. All our themed tents have electricity, lights, hot water and flush toilets but individual tents have different features as seen below. Please note that the tents and lapa are non-smoking areas.

This spacious flagship tent whose theme celebrates our iconic bird, has a double bed, shower and bath, and is set some distance from the other tents for added privacy.

CATERING

Full catering in a thatched Lapa

The luxury tented camp offers full catering in a thatched Lapa, which also has a lounge with a fireplace and a bar. Drinks and a tea/coffee station are always available.
