Property information

Kruger Bush Retreat is a luxury and unique retreat on the border of the Kruger National Park, 16km to Crocodile Bridge Gate, where game roams freely into the grounds of the retreat and amongst the natural indigenous bush. The game you will encounter are zebras, giraffes, kudu, warthogs, impala, bush buck, wildebeest, bushbaby and monkeys, to name a few. You may want to spend the day in the Kruger National Park or relax at the retreat and laze around the communal pool or in your own exclusive entertainment area. There are many activities at your disposal from game drives to guided safari tours. Should you be seeking other activities you can inquire at the retreat about quad biking, zip lining and hiking trails that can be found in the surrounding areas of Marloth Park etc.

Neighbourhood information

Even though the retreat is deep in the African bush there are restaurants, pubs, a shopping centre and a gas station in close proximity. There is also a game reserve called Lionspruit within Marloth Park, very close to the lodge. Being on the crocodile river, you will hear the hippos and lions roar often at night as well as the call of the fish eagle and the other sounds of the bush.
