About Lodges

Lodges offer a harmonious blend of comfort and wilderness, often situated in prime locations near national parks or coastal reserves. These timber-framed retreats typically feature spacious decks for wildlife spotting, stone fireplaces for chilly evenings, and knowledgeable staff who can arrange guided walks or canoe trips.

Unlike standard hotels, lodges emphasise connection with the surroundings – you might shower while overlooking a forest canopy or spot antelope grazing past your breakfast table. The atmosphere strikes a balance between rustic charm and modern convenience, with many offering spa treatments or gourmet dining after a day of adventure. Perfect for those who want nature on their doorstep without sacrificing hot showers.

Most of the lodges offer affordable accommodation options, making it an attractive choice for budget-conscious travellers. Additionally, the proximity to popular attractions and natural beauty provides convenience for guests looking to explore the area.
