    I loved sitting on the porch and watching the animals come close. Rooms were very spacious. It was also not far to walk to the swimming pool with my kids.

    Brain views of the animals feeding and grazing in the morning amenities in the house are great

    Didnt had to go all the way to main reception - especially when you just want to get to your lodge to enjoy the little time you have.

    The accommodation was as advertised. Thank you for that. The lodge was beautiful with animal roaming all around you. Will definately be back again.
