Views:
Kindly note that the self-catering unit and the self-catering bedroom are semi-attached and are situated behind the lodge. Both of these units are facing the natural bushveld of the nature conservancy Marloth park, where animals wander around on a daily basis. Therefore, these accommodation options do not have views of the Crocodile River and Kruger Park.
The lodge rooms upstairs have an exquisite view over Kruger Park and the Crocodile River.
The Deluxe double rooms and the lodge rooms downstairs: Although these rooms are all facing Kruger Park and the Crocodile River, the views are that of the natural bushveld in front of the lodge. These rooms are all only 50 meters from the banks of the Crocodile River, which forms the border between us and Kruger Park.
Cleaning services:
Cleaning services are included in the rate.

Therefore we strongly believe that you would love the sounds of the African bush and its creatures. For this reason, there is no television in any of our accommodation facilities. However, for the TV enthusiast – there are big-screen TV's in a lot of the restaurants in the area very close to us.
