Durban - Springbok Lodge nestles in the heart of the Nambiti Private Game Reserve and epitomises the perfect safari getaway.
The 8 000-hectare private reserve near Ladysmith and Newcastle is home to the Big Five as well as cheetah, hippo and more than 30 species of game.
The Sundays River creates a unique sanctuary, attracting several rare bird species and an array of raptors and vultures.
Drifting off to sleep under star-studded skies, waking to the calls of the wild and drinking in picture-perfect moments under the glorious sky make for a truly “Out of Africa” experience.
The accommodation at Springbok Lodge is superb – 15 elevated, luxurious, safari-style, air-conditioned en-suite tents with outdoor showers. The cuisine and friendly service are of equally high standards.
Heading off on an open game-viewing vehicle is rewarding. A personal guide ensures you get the most out of the experience and enjoy the abundance of wildlife and unspoilt vistas.
Dining around a fire in the boma on fine summer and balmy winter nights are further highlights, as are Springbok Lodge’s bush breakfasts
