The chalet was spacious and clean but old. We enjoyed the activities there. The office staff was very hard to get in touch with and didn’t communicate well at all.

Lovely Experience

Pleasantly surprised at the lodge. Service was lovely and staff were friendly and helpful - even organising additional activities for us. Special thank you to Anna who was an amazing and knowledgeable guide. Dinner service was well presented and delicious. Accommodation was clean and well-maintained. Aircon was strong enough to cool the room throughout and bathroom + kitchen were spacious and tidy.

Lovely setting and hearing the lions roar at night is worth staying over for. Unforgettable.. Also if you are a bird watcher. The large pond offers excellent opportunities to see many birds
