Buttonquail Tented Camp.

Buttonquail Camp has 6 luxury en suite, double insulated lodge tents, each sleeping 2 adults and 2 (3 if small) kids.

2 of these tents are placed next to each other and must be let together. They are ideal for a larger family group or for 2 couples who know each other. They have also been made self catering (at no extra cost). We call them the 2 'family tents'.

Each lodge tent is tastefully furnished with a queen size bed, plus either a double bunk or 2 camp beds (for kids).

The bedding and towells are all of the best quality pure cotton and we also supply thick soft blankets, hot water bottles plus lighting (and heating in winter!). The bathrooms are spacious and airy and the showers have endless hot water for those crisp nights! All tents have a tea tray as well.

Each unit has babbling river water running past the private verandah and lovely views of the Palmiet gorge.

Every evening a huge fire is lit at the Lapa allowing much wine to be consumed and a great number of lies to be told!

The camp is either self catering or fully catered (by prior arrangement, at an extra cost).
N.B. catered option is only available if the entire camp is booked by one group.

The Camp is serviced daily.

The lodge tents share a large (15m x 5m) "boma" tent which houses a spacious and comfortable lounge area with a fire place, 2 x large dining tables and a very well equipped kitchen area. It has lighting and heating and has a wonderful atmosphere, responsible for many a party!

The kitchen has 2 gas ovens/stoves inside and gas braais outside. There is a lockable fridge/freezer with ice, available for each lodge tent as well. All crockery, cutlery, glasses etc is supplied.
