About Ndhula Luxury Tented Lodge

Serene bush escape just south of South Africa's Kruger National Park

Lying within a 765-hectare private bush estate near White River, Ndula Luxury Tented Lodge has it all – wide vistas, dynamic wilderness, wildlife, supremely comfortable contemporary accommodation, and breakfasts and dinners to linger over. Here, you're in the Lowveld, a region that incorporates the much-loved Kruger National Park, and overflows with sightseeing options, from rich wildlife to dramatic canyons and compelling history. Explore the estate to see giraffe, zebra, warthog, nyala, wildebeest, kudu, and a birder's wishlist of species. Need more? Kruger is a mere 45-minute drive away.

Property details

The property

Broad, elevated decks, open-sided but sheltered by stretched canvas, give the main area a pleasant sense of the flow between indoors and out. The interiors are impeccable. Expect contemporary style, natural materials, loads of comfort and splashes of vivid colour, and an intriguing sense of both cosiness and space. There's a large canvas dining room and lounge. Outside, cushioned seating beneath broad umbrellas beg you to settle back and relax. Beyond, on a gentle rise, lies the pool.

The rooms

Each of the 24 tents sits upon 50 square metres of elevated wooden decking, all facing east. All offer unobstructed views across the valley and comfortable outdoor sitting areas – it's not uncommon for a nyala or giraffe to saunter past. Each room sleeps just two guests in king-sized beds, which can be made into two doubles (no single beds can be added). Tents have all the necessities, from en-suite bathrooms with a shower to a ceiling fan and minibar.

Activities

A network of trails surrounding the lodge are great for running, mountain-biking, hiking and birdwatching (216 species have been recorded). It's a short drive to Kruger Park's Numbi Gate, and the productive southern section of the park. Expect Big Five, plains game, wild dog and bucket-list birds. Further northwest, running parallel to Kruger, the geographically dramatic Panoramic Route (including the extraordinary Blyde River Canyon) is worth exploring. Outside activities are arranged through private operators; ask for help at reception.
