Londolozi Game Reserve

Pioneer Camp reflects the history of the reserve as it was here that over eighty years ago the Varty and Taylor fathers arrived after four days of hard travel they erected their tents. They awoke in a splendid panorama of breathtaking beauty.

Unique, peaceful and remote, this wild forest is still the experience at Pioneer Camp. A 510-year-old riverine forest throws dappled light on the three private cottages and provides a climactic backdrop for the camp's past.

This camp can also be converted into a private bush home for family groups of 6 to 14 people through linking glass sky walkways into interconnected family units.

The Old English indulgence reflects our heritage with an African twist. The influences are evident in the elegant cream interiors, silver teapots and Portmeirion crockery. Guest Cottages are themed with historical memorabilia, telling a story of a bygone era and furnishing an environment of free indulgence.

The Private Granite Suites offer an extraordinary experience for the exclusive use of six guests. Bold, inspiring materials mirror the extrusion of granite rocks that flank the camp while conveying the raw essence of Africa. A palette of silver, charcoal and elephant grey in a range of beautiful materials creates an elegant and contemporary setting in each comprehensive suite.

The emphasis is on space, light and privacy while blurring the barrier between inside and out. A seamless integration with nature is achieved with large doors and windows all opening directly onto the river. Each suite has a private, heated swimming pool.

Granite Suites can be booked individually or as a private camp for six guests, making it ideal for honeymooning couples or a small group celebrating special occasions.

The Private Granite Suites offer the unique experience of riverside bathing. Here the experience of swimming can be shared with elephants in the outdoor bathtubs situated on the decks below each suite. The private river bath at each suite is the next best thing to being in the river itself.

The Tree Camp at Londolozi is a double dose of glamour. It embodies the very essence of Londolozi's continuous striving to transcend and redefine the wildlife tourism experience. It is also a place of connoisseurship, leopards, orchids, lanterns and Leadwood.

Guests recline in the evening on the sunset decks, champagne in hand as they survey the distant koppies. Elegance and simplicity are the hallmarks of the Tree Camp sanctuaries. In every detail and feature, from the private swimming pools and contemplation decks to the Ralph Lauren wallpaper, and chocolate plaited leather beds, this exclusive camp provides a perfect showcase of African excellence.

The heart & soul of Londolozi, Varty Camp features two Private suites and eight chalets. The campfire has burned here for over 80 years making Varty Camp the symbolic heart and soul of Londolozi. The décor echoes tones of the owner's private homes and their continuing love affair with the earth.

All rooms at Londolozi's Varty Camp are framed by timber decks that overlook the riverine bush. The living spaces are raised off the ground and shaded under a cathedral of trees. The camp has a pleasingly down-to-earth quality, and the emphasis on family heritage means that children always have a place at Varty Camp. This is also the location of "Londolozi Living" boutique, the gym, and massage treatment room.

The suites boast private plunge pools overlooking the river.
