Discover the Diverse Wildlife of Sabi Sand Game Reserve
As one of the original game lodges in South Africa, Notten’s Bush Camp offers a truly authentic African safari experience. It is a destination that captures the true meaning of being in the bush. With limited electrical lighting, a magical atmosphere is created. Surrounded by candlelight and lanterns at night capturing a warm and enchanting spirit of what the bush is meant to be. Splendid panoramic views, Notten’s is the perfect place for peace and relaxation while watching wildlife meander past.
Safaris are led by experienced and professional rangers in open-top Landcruisers, offering an adventurous discovery of the region’s prolific wildlife, including Big 5 game viewing. Unique walking safaris are offered daily giving guests the opportunity of discovering the smaller treasures of the area. This can be followed by lazy hours spent in the pool or having a massage at the Nature Spa. Under the cloak of nightfall one can enjoy the sounds of the African night, while dining in the candlelit boma beneath a canopy of stars.
The rooms consist of beautifully appointed suites with open plan bedroom and en-suite bathroom. All suites have both indoor and outdoor shower facilities. All windows and sliding doors are fitted with screens and insect coils are provided. Each suite at Notten’s Bush Camp leads onto a private wooden deck with a beautiful view of the bush. Paraffin lamps and candles replace electric lighting for ambience and all the rooms are cooled with air-conditioning. There are charging points for mobile phones, cameras and electronic equipment. A main line telephone facility is also available.
The bush walk is conducted following your hearty breakfast and is not essentially a game viewing experience but rather a guided walk amongst the tranquil setting of bushes and trees, taking a route along sand roads and game trails. Walkers have the pleasure of learning about the finer details that make up their surroundings, while participating in analyzing wildlife tracks, identifying birds and bird sounds. You will also identify trees, bushes, plants and seed pods and any traditional bush craft and medicinal uses that apply. While you enjoy the walk at a leisurely pace, you will always have playing out in the back of your mind, the thrill of knowing you are walking in Big 5 wilderness.
We offer you a great opportunity to explore the world renowned Kruger National Park, the most bio diverse nature reserve on the African continent. Although we are located within the worlds best private wilderness area, which is part of the Greater Kruger Park, a day outing to explore our vast neighbouring wilderness area, is well worth it.
Cultural tours can be arranged into the local Shangaan community, to get an insight into their rural way of life and culture.
Indulge in a spa treatment or simply relax by the private spa pool. A secret little nook to enjoy some extra peace and quiet. Relax, reflect and rejuvenate.
