Accommodation is in twin, double or family tents that are set away from each other to provide privacy. The customized South African canvas tents have a zip-up flap system for the windows and doorways to keep out insects. The tents are well ventilated with sizable windows right around and even on the roof. Each tent consists of a sleeping area that opens on to a small sit-out with camp chairs. There is also a side table, shelf, camp chair, side-stool, mirror, torch and umbrella. The toilet, shower and wash basin are detached, located just outside in two separate tents. The w/c is a bio-degradable flushing toilet and the shower consists of a separate changing area. The water for the shower is manually filled each day: hot water is provided for the shower upon request.
