Property details

The property

The main house brings to life the history of the camp and the family who owns and loves it. Photographs line the wall; people past and present have come here to experience all Londolozi has to offer. With its no-frills décor the lodge oozes familiarity. The dining area and adjoining bar leads to the sprawling deck with its magnificent views over the Sand River. Add a pool, a gym and the Living Boutique and you have a full-package experience.

The rooms

There are 10 chalets, eight standard and two superior. Raised off the ground and with a breathtaking view of the Sand River below, all have a private plunge pool set in a wooden deck, en-suite bathroom with bath and shower, aircon, and lounge with a mini-bar. The chalets are hidden away under a magnificent tree canopy, giving them a private but not isolated feel.

Activities

Guests can look forward to morning and afternoon game drives and nature walks guided by knowledgeable rangers and trackers. But it’s not all game all the time. Go for a massage or treatment at the spa, catch up on some reading in the library, do a spot of bird-watching, or brush up on your local knowledge by going on a cultural trip. Finish off the day with a boma dinner followed by an evening gazing at the stars.

Why we love it

Why we love it

Londolozi's leopard dynasty. Londolozi's guides and trackers have followed these cats across seven generations, knowing each one by name. Few places on earth offer encounters this intimate.

Something to think about

Something to think about

Varty is Londolozi's biggest camp, so has a livelier atmosphere than its other offerings. If you're after total seclusion, this might not be the camp for you.
