Each of the ten spacious framed canvas tented rooms, situated in the wooded area besides the river, is comfortably furnished and with large mosquito netted beds, its own private en suite bathroom and dressing area providing running water, hot water ‘bush bucket’ showers and a flushing eco-friendly loo.

A central lounge and dining area, under a cool thatched roof, provides a comfortable environment for meals and relaxing during the heat of the day. A shaded area beside the river offers al fresco dining and an evening ‘fireplace’ for guests to relax with sundowners and share their day’s experience.

As the camp is within the Queen Elizabeth National Park and has been designed to be as low impact as possible with low usage of water, power and other resources. Solar power is used for lighting with power points limited to a central area allocated for recharging cameras and videos.

Meals are freshly prepared with many local ingredients, offering a balance of international and locally flavoured cuisine with all meals being of several delicious courses. The bar has a selection of local and imported drinks served by the friendly local staff. Hot drinks are available throughout the day on a self-service basis, and are delivered to your tent with early morning wake up calls as required, allowing you to savour the early morning sounds of the ‘bush’ awakening.
