Notten’s Bush Camp,This friendly, family-run and exquisitely beautiful accommodation in the bush is the definition of peace and relaxation.
One of the best things about Notten’s Bush Camp is that they have gone all out to create an absolutely wonderful and somewhat different atmosphere to other safari camps in the area. They have purposely eliminated the need for electric lighting with romantic candles and hurricane lamps. With only this natural lighting to illuminate the surroundings at night you can just imagine what a beautiful and peaceful atmosphere is created.
No expense has been spared when it comes to the comfort of Notten’s Bush Camp guests. There are several very well-appointed suites at Notten’s Bush Camp that have splendid views over the surrounding bushveld, each with beautiful, private wooden decks. They are all elegantly furnished and provide all that is required for a relaxing time in the Sabi Sands Game Reserve. The main lodge is also a fantastic building (built on stilts) with an open-plan design and thatched roof that overlooks a popular waterhole. The entire camp enjoys a lovely position under the shade of indigenous riverine trees, Marulas Leadwoods and African Ebony.
As you step into Notten’s Bush Camp you will feel as if you have just come home. The camp is run by two individuals passionate about wildlife and the happiness of their guests. When a place of accommodation is operated by experienced persons who love what they do you are guaranteed to have a wonderful time. Taking only ten guests at a time, Notten’s Bush Camp can offer you lots of special attention and can easily attend to your every request. It truly offers a magnificent change from some of the larger safari establishments.
