Babananga Rock Pools Bushcamp
Zululand is an amazing place: it has a striking scenic beauty, a great
diversity of animals and plants, a colourful and often dramatic history
and a world famous people - the Zulus - with their fascinating culture.
At Babanango Valley, situated at the heart of Zululand, we like to
think that we are able to give you just a glimpse of Zululand - for
a lifetime would be too short to get to see and know it all. Rock
Pools Bushcamp Offers an affordable yet unique bush experience - an
African dream experience, where good hospitality and service are blended
in a relaxed informal atmosphere. The deck overlooking the river,
is the gathering point for sundowners. At night the log fire and the
floodlit river enrich the experience. On warm clear evenings, we do
a bush braai for groups who book Rock Pools exclusively. Otherwise
you may request that your meal is served at your cottage, where a
barbeque fire will be lit and you barbeque your own meal. There are
nine cottages under canvas, en suite with showers, decorated in an
East African style with brass beds and cottage furniture. The cottages
are individually located along the river, each with their own walled
relaxation area and each with their own access to the river pools.
If parents would like an adventure for their older children, three
cottages have a place for a pilot bow tent, where children can sleep,
provided with camping mattresses, sleeping bags and pillows. Rock
Pools Bush Camp is ideal for private groups and small conferences
- an exclusive African Dream.
