Its stunning location tucked away on an acacia island along the edge of an ancient seasonal flood plain gives it breathtaking views of the savannah plains of the Kennedy Vlei line.|
Six elegantly furnished canvas tents with en-suite bathrooms; flush toilet and romantic alfresco bush showers make up this camp. The décor echoes an era of old from colonial times to the ancient tribes of Africa telling the story from all corners of this magnificent continent. The main area and pool overlook the pan where large numbers of game congregate thus offering rare moments of outstanding nature. The lounge and dining area is at the forefront of the camp, tucked under a soaring canopy of trees.
Activities consist of guided walks, game drives and spot lighting as well as game viewing from hides. Wildlife includes elephant, kudu, sable antelope, zebra, wildebeest, gemsbok, the rare and endangered roan antelope, buffalo, giraffe, white rhino, lion, leopard and hyena amongst others.
