The lodge was once a home and still retains than feel. It's well designed and very comfortable. At the moment it only offers 4 rooms which means we had exclusive use as a family which was very relaxing .This also enabled us to modify the times of game drives and mealtimes. The food was excellent, some of the best I have ever had in a lodge. The chef happily tailored menus and the meals were beautifully presented. We felt it was excellent value for money and would happily return. Thd staff were friendly and accommodating.

No waterhole to watch game whilst in the lodge but the location doesn't lend itself to this.

Todo extraordinario. Atención de primer nivel, el personal muy cordial y la comida inigualable. Lo recomiendo a ojos cerrados. Fuimos con un niño de 2 años y resultó perfecto.

Todo excelente.

This is the place you go to visit wild nature fused with 5 star treatment!

10.0

The place is beautiful, well looked after, quiet and peaceful. This is the place to visit to unwind and unhinge. The staff is very friendly with a personalised warm welcome each time you return from the game drives. Simon The Guide was excellent; the chef/s raised the bar with each of their meals. The team worked very well together…

Nothing.
