&Beyond Kirkman's Kamp

Kirkman’s Camp’s communal areas fall within the historic Kirkman’s home. The refurbished, elegant central lounge and dining spaces are very well-appointed with neutral colours, comfortable furniture and significant artifacts from a bygone era. Each different room holds a different set of priceless treasures, whether it is a buffalo mount, an old chest high fireplace or a collection of antique rifles, there is no shortage of character here. Heading outside there is a wrap around terrace, green rolling lawns, a large inviting spillway swimming pool and boma (traditional outdoor enclosure) for evening meals.

There are eighteen suites built in keeping with the rest of the lodge. Simple in decor but very comfortable, the rooms all come with air conditioning, minibars, ceiling fans and an en-suite bathroom complete with a ball-and-claw bath, shower and porcelain basin. Outside there is a private veranda with furniture to enjoy the view with an ice cold beverage.

Kirkman’s Camp focuses primarily on game drive and night drive as its core methods of wilderness exploration. Walking safari offers exhilarating opportunity to encounter wildlife at eye level and is a far more intense experience. Bush walks provide insight and understanding of the small species, birds and reptiles not seen from the faster moving vehicle. Looking for a bit of peace and quiet, indulge in a full body massage. Finally a short drive from camp, helicopter flights are offered providing a different perspective on the landscape.
