Your Experience

This eco-bush camp in the Timbavati Private Game Reserve offers an authentic African adventure, where guests can enjoy the unspoilt wilderness. Umlani Bushcamp is a gorgeous lodge, made from all natural materials and designed to blend in with the surrounding environment.

The traditional hut accommodation is made from reeds with thatched roofs. This is the perfect setting for travelers looking for an off the grid experience away from the touristy hordes. Although referred to as huts, inside, crisp linen and comfortable beds await you. Spacious and comfortable, you will be sure to enjoy that real ‘get back to nature’ feel. This eco-bush camp in the Timbavati operates without electricity.

The candle-lit dinners and walkways back to your ‘rondavel’ add an unpretentious romantic air. At Umlani Bushcamp, the main focus is on the wildlife and the African bushveld experience. Game drives and bush walks are a must. Award-winning meals are served near the riverbed. Take a refreshing dip in the outdoor pool, lounge around in a chair underneath a canopy of indigenous trees or enjoy a pre-meal drink around the traditional boma fire.
