ABOUT

Camp Ndlovu

Why This

Inspires Us

  • Situated in the Welgevonden Game Reserve, Camp Ndlovu is a typical traditional style lodge and is surrounded by spectacular mountainous terrain, river ravines and breathtaking views of the African bush! (To us the scenery is next level!)
  • Each suite is elegant and generously proportioned – designed for the ultimate comfort and privacy boasting a large private deck, private plunge pool (a delight in hot weather) & a shaded sala area makes for perfect relaxing and having time out between the game drives!
  • Other facilities include a bush gym and a Spa (an oasis where you can enjoy a holistic experience rediscovering nature) – the perfect safari retreat destination for some relaxation! (or for those who prefer to sweat it out!)
  • We love the main deck – it is literally perched over a natural spring waterhole! The best is to order that favorite drink of yours and enjoy a perfect afternoon watching the animals coming down to drink!
  • Camp Ndlovu has been elegantly styled and features a typical traditional safari style of opulent design touches like Persian carpets, crystal chandeliers and wonderfully comfy overstuffed sofas!
  • What makes Camp Ndlovu so special is that it was family owned and run! The lodge goes above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable at all times. Little touches like running a bubble bath every evening when you get back from your game drive was just the best experience ever!!!
  • Mouth watering food, amazing personal service make dining at Camp Ndlovu a true African culinary experience with seasonal menus!

Lodge

Information

Camp Ndlovu is situated in the Welgevonden Game Reserve, a 35 000 hectare stretch of exceptionally beautiful scenery amid river ravines and mountains in the Waterberg district of Limpopo province.
The Game Reserve is malaria free and home to Africa’s world famous Big 5. Camp Ndlovu is so much more than a wilderness experience.

Let the immaculate surroundings and opulent spaces put you at ease and delight you as they invite you to be their guest in every sense of the word.


Suites

With only five suites, including a family suite (children under 12 years old only by special arrangement), Camp Ndlovu’s suites are luxurious, elegant, and generously proportioned; they are designed for the utmost comfort and privacy. Additionally, exclusivity is ensured due to the small number of suites available.

Each air-conditioned luxury unit suite has its own plunge pool, outdoor shower and bath, ceiling fan, king-size extra-long bed, lounge with fireplace, Nespresso coffee maker with free coffee pods, fully stocked mini bar, outdoor shower and bath, and a sizable wooden deck with chaise lounges and private dining areas.

Dining

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are available every day, and the menu features a variety of creative gourmet delights that may be altered to meet any dietary restrictions or food allergies.

Safari

Welgevonden offers an exclusive, intimate bushveld safari experience, with only a limited number of guests having access to Welgevonden at any one time. These guests are collected from the gate by a competent, qualified field-guide and are then transported to the respective commercial game lodges on the reserve. The mountainous bushveld is worth a visit all year round thanks to its high altitude, temperate climate and malaria-free status

Welgevonden is home to more than 65 mammal species. While these include the famous Big Five, it is the rare and unusual species like cheetah, brown hyena, caracal, aardwolf and aardvark that make game drives exceptionally exciting.

Welgevonden sports a diverse range of habitat types which support a riot of biodiversity, including over 300 different birds! From cheetah-loved grasslands and savannahs to leafy wooded mountains cut by deep rocky ravines, Welgevonden has it all! In addition to the wildlife, ancient bushman rock art can be found dispersed around the reserve, offering the curious traveller a unique cultural experience while on their guided safari.
