The Lodge
Shaded and protected by a huge grass thatched roof, there is a full-size billiard table, the Eagle's Nest for private dining and lots of cosy nooks. Join us at our open-plan reception area, dining room, bar and a large terrace to enjoy the spectacular African sunrise and sunset. Giraffes, elephants, baboons and kudus can often be seen from the deck.
