TSHUKUDU BUSH CAMP

Accommodation is in 6 thatched cottages (some for 2 guests, others for families) with private bathrooms. For big groups there are two big dormitory-style platforms with ablutions downstairs. The camp contains a central indoor and outdoor eating area under thatched roofs as well as a cosy boma for your evening braai. Sheets, towels and a limited amount of fire wood are provided.
