Nature lovers paradise

Great service. The hotel is simple but caters for all your needs. The surrounding area is stunning and any nature lover would be happy to stay here.

It was a great experience

It was a great experience, loved the guides and the nature trips, loved visiting the town with no cars. The only down part was I had a bad cold, which had nothing to do with your lodge. Would highly recommend it to anyone.
