Rhino River Lodge

The large main house has the reception area and curio shop, lounge with fireplace, and dining room with bar, both opening up on to a wooden deck on the one side and a campfire area on the other. Dinner is served here or if it's nice out in a make-shift boma. There's no WiFi in the rooms so you'll have to make contact with the outside world from here.

Whether you're travelling solo, as a couple, with kids or as a group of friends, you'll find a room to suit your needs. The two four-sleeper chalets with kitchen and lounge are perfect for families, the four double en-suite rooms for the romantically inclined, and the two-bedroom (both en-suite) homestead and cottage, each with kitchen and private pool, for groups of four. All accommodation options have air con, and are comfortably furnished, but in need of a refresh.

The daily schedule is pretty fixed: morning and afternoon game drives, with a coffee and a sundowner stop. The remaining hours can be spent by the pool or just relaxing in the chalets. Bush walks are also on offer, but depend on the the availability of guides and can only be booked on arrival. There are also day trips to surrounding places of interest, and cultural and educational tours offered by independent operators at an extra fee.
