Nottens Bush Camp

Notten's Bush Camp is part of the Sabi-Sand Game Reserve, Mpumalanga, in South Africa and its best kept secret. This is a privately owned region situated within the greater Kruger National Park ecosystem, which is one of South Africa's most treasured natural sanctuaries. It is a neighbor, on the south western side, of the Kruger National Park, Mala Mala on the eastern boundary and Sabi Sabi on the western boundary. As there are no fences between the private game reserves and the Kruger National Park, the animals can move unhindered between the two areas. The camp itself is situated under a canopy of indigenous riverine trees, African Ebony, Marulas and Leadwoods. Six chalets accommodate a maximum of ten guests at a time. The staff will ensure that a stay is an unforgettable experience. Accommodation consists of beautifully appointed suites with open-plan bedroom and en-suite bathroom. Two of the chalets have both indoor and outdoor shower facilities. All windows and sliding doors are fitted with screens and insect coils are provided. Each suite leads onto a private wooden deck with a beautiful view of the bush. All chalets have hot showers but no electricity, paraffin lamps and candles are used for lighting. All the rooms are cooled with an overhead ceiling fan.

Night drives begin in time to experience the spectacular lowveld sunsets. On these one sees the nocturnal bush creatures as well as other game under spotlight. The tracker is able to spot the eyes of the animals in the pitch dark night. Cool off next to the sparkling pool with refreshments from the fully stocked bar, or relax in the shade of the Marula trees on the wooden deck overlooking the waterhole.
