Company info

Our family has been running traditional safari lodges in Africa since the 70s. We are a family run and owned business and take pride in nurturing a close and warm relationship with our guests and staff alike.

Property info

The lodge is small with only 7 private cottages, which makes it more private and intimate. Also, as an owner managed lodge, extra effort and care is taken to ensure the guests feel at home. This is a real retreat for those seeking peace and quiet.

Neighborhood info

We are in a very special area, as a part of the greater Kruger National park. Animals roam freely between us, the Kruger National Park and our neighbour the Timbavati Reserve. We have the big five and so much more such as on occasion the rare white lions (originate in our area), wild dog and cheetah!
