United Kingdom, March 2023

What a beautiful and relaxing spot! the location was perfect for a safari, and we were lucky enough to see plenty of wildlife. the food was absolutely delicious, and we really enjoyed the personalized menu. the staff were incredibly attentive and made our stay even more enjoyable.

The cabins may need some maintenance, as we found some cobwebs and spiders in our room. the access road was a bit difficult to navigate and may not be suitable for all vehicles.
