Therefore, you can see game throughout the day from the comfort of your veranda. There are surely few other camps as perfectly situated. Consequently, guests enjoy a “home away from home” in the heart of the wild.
Our lodge utilizes local stone and thatch for an authentic feel. Specifically, we built the structures around natural kopjes. The design capitalizes on an exceptional position on a bend in the river.

This offers a completely different perspective of the landscape. Therefore, you can enjoy varied views during every meal.
