Accomodation
Safari Tents
Guests have a choice of staying in 3 safari tents, and each night guests will be able to hear the lions roar, hyenas laugh, and jackals calling. The tents are furnished with double or single beds, and each tent has an en-suite bathroom with a shower. Warm water is provided by a donkey wood-burning water system. Linen and shower towels are provided, but guests please need to bring their own swimming towels.
Electric points are available for lights and chargers, but as the tents are run on solar panels, guests are asked to use electricity sparingly.
A fully equipped self-catering kitchen is shared between the tents, and consist of a gas oven, a stove, and small fridge. Braai facilities are also available for use, as well as a swimming pool.
