The Lodge
The challenge was to build a lodge that would look unique and artistic and would reflect the surrounding bush, as well as the spirit of African myths and legends. This is a lodge with art, colour and exciting furnishing, but at the same time your eye is drawn outwards to the beckoning bush beyond. The openness of the architecture ensures that you are aware of the bird calls and movements of the animals outside. However, the height of the lodge above the river provides a viewing point with a feeling of safety. The raised walkways provide guests with clear and easy access to their suites.
Main Building
The cool and spacious lounge overlooks the river and the open game plains beyond. On rare cold evenings, a seat near the beautifully decorated lounge fireplace is a great place to enjoy a glass of estate wine. The dining room has a spectacular view over the river and the open grassland.
Executive Suites
The King Cheetah and Giant Eagle Owl suites each have a separate bedroom, lounge, dining area and two bathrooms.
Standard Suites
Each suite has airconditioning, fans, minibar, tea and coffee facilities, safe, inside and outside shower and bath with an amazing view.
Decks lead from the bedroom and lounge to the inviting private pool below. The pools at these suites are the ultimate in peace and tranquility. Elephants are frequently sighted close to the pool and whilst none have as yet come in for a swim, they certainly have come for a sundowner drink. The secluded deck is the ideal place watch birds, see the animals coming down to the river and to relax in a world of your own.
Curio Shop
The well stocked curio shop features South African artistic creations, as well as interesting clothes and curios.
Wine Cellar
Our wine cellar features the best of South African estate wine. Guests are welcome to select their wines from the cellar baskets.
The Boma
This unusual boma (or meeting place) serves as the magical setting for firelit dinners. Handpacked freeform walls provide a dramatic backdrop for the chef's gourmet meals.
Pool
The beautiful pool features a waterfall dropping into the jacuzzi cavern, before flowing gently into the main swimming pool.
Gym
A very well equipped gym is available. It looks directly out onto the river frontage, so not a moment's game viewing need be lost.
Library
The library has many interesting books, whether it is fact or fiction guests prefer. A computer station is available for sending emails to the family or office.
