​
Accommodation
The accommodation is quite a treat within the ruggedness of the forest. The general area within and around the lodge has been left as wild as possible, to allow guests to immerse within the raw, wild forest.
Emphasis is on a crisp, clean interior utilising earth elements that highlight natural products, be it the grain in the wood or the earthy colour and softness of hand woven carpets, made with hand picked cotton or sheep wool locally sourced.
The long wooden verandah gives the guests ample space to relax and take in the view encompassing trees and elephant grass in the foreground, giving way to taller trees shroud in 'old man's beard,' and a magnificent 'Tree Deck' from where you can watch wildlife coming down to the salt-lick cum water hole below.
