Buffalo Thorn Lodge - Pilanesberg, North West

Cottage / Chalet, Game Lodges / Game Reserves , Nature Reserve Accommodation

Description
BUFFALO THORN LODGE is an exclusive private, luxury lodge; a peaceful sanctuary nestled in the African bush yet one which holds all the excitement of big five game-viewing.

We provide the ultimate escape from busy schedules, with 5 luxury thatched chalets accommodating 10 guests. The main entertainment area comprises a diningroom, TV lounge, reading lounge, games area and a fully equipped kitchen. Outside in the boma, you can relax around an African fire, listen to the sounds of the night or to the stories of your experienced game ranger. Alternatively you can star-gaze under an ink black sky or just relax over a good meal at the dining table and bar, inhaling the pungent smells of indigenous veld and wildlife.

Enjoy morning or afternoon game drives in an open vehicle as your ranger shows you the large and small species of the African bushveld. Or game view from the comfort of loungers around the pool. Alternatively relax in the Jacuzzi as many species of birds and buck, even some of the big five, such as elephant, amble past the electric fence a few metres from the pool deck.
