Sited 44 km north of Satara, nestled on the banks of the Timbavati River, the secluded Roodewal Bush Lodge can be found.
Lush riverine vegetation, like Natal Mahogany and Jackalberry trees, paint a picture of peace & tranquility from the barbecue area, simply to be crowned by the brilliance of the stars at night.
The distinctive quality of this camp is owing to the tremendous privacy of each exclusive sleeping unit, making it ideal for social gatherings. Not only is the entire camp occupied by the group making the booking, but the units are spread out to tender privacy to each guest / family inhabiting that unit.
Another exceptional attribute is the private viewing deck, erected on stilts that surveys the beautiful Timbavati River which offers outstanding sightseeing and game viewing.
