Nkuhlu Tented Camp

Nkuhlu is not a SANParks camp but a privately run camp next to the Nkuhlu picnic site. The tents are new, extremely well-equipped and we loved our stay here! The bed was super comfortable. The bathroom / dressing room area is equipped with a large shower, ample space for clothing, a separate toilet and a vanity area. There’s also a full-length mirror! The kitchenette is really well-equipped and even has a microwave oven. A gas braai is provided on the patio, as well as a gas hob inside. There’s a full-size fridge too. The staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. Part of their turn-down service is to set the table so that it’s ready when you return from your drive - a great idea! This is an unfenced camp which we prefer - we had a hyena right on our doorstep one evening. If you want to leave your tent area after dark, an armed ranger is on hand to accompany you. It’s a self-catering camp (which we prefer) and it’s fully serviced. (There is a SANParks shop and restaurant/coffee shop at the picnic site but it closes at 16h00.) We loved it here and will be back!

This was our second visit to Nkuhlu for our wedding anniversary. We absolutely loved it again, exceptional, luxury, spacious and clean. Very comfortable bed. Mosquito nets around the bed every night, and the table set for us. The staff are all lovely, friendly & kind. The ranger called us over the radio if there was anything in camp, we saw Hyena and Serval. As well as seeing Kudu, elephant over the river, lots of other small buck, and a very large Baboon on our patio😬) The gas braai, chairs and kitchenette are all sufficient and make for a great stay. Thankyou so much for making our 29th anniversary memorable.
