Umlani Bushcamp in Timbavati
offers guests superior accommodation in the form of traditional African reed and
thatch huts that will not only provide you with all the comforts you need, but will
also provide you with an authentic experience of local tribal (Shangaan) architecture
and style, which blends in naturally with the environment.
Each hut has en-suite facilities including an open-air bush shower. The hut is comfortably
fitted with white mosquito nets, crisp white linen and towels as well as with standard
bathroom amenities, bottled water (although the tap water is perfectly safe to drink)
and insect repellent. The Umlani philosophy of simplistic luxury and 'getting back
to nature' is enhanced by the romance of operating without electricity, so each
hut and the entire camp is lit by candlelight and oil lamps, providing a warm and
romantic atmosphere.
