LAKE MANZE CAMP ACCOMMODATION

Accommodation

The tents are "meru style" canvas with double zip locking and mesh windows.

 

They are carefully placed around the extensive camp area, with the lodge and dining area in the central section, along the shores of Lake Manze and each tent has a view towards the lake.

The tents are spread out in the shade of Doum palms and Acacias.
The animals can come very close - its not a good idea to go so close as  our guide here.

The main bedroom of the tent - you can just see the dressing-room and bathroom area behind. There are double zip flaps (one of gauze mesh and one of tough canvas)
between the bedroom and bathroom, and also between the veranda and bedroom.

Lake Manze Camp has all of the comforts that any of us might expect: Inside each large walk-in tent is a double bed (or twin beds) with a wrought-iron frame.
There is also a lock-box (large wooden chest with a padlock) for any valuables and a simple frame with canvas shelves designed as a wardrobe.
Large mosquito-gauze windows on all sides of the tent allow the breeze to pass through, whilst keeping insects out.

 

Boiled and filtered water is supplied in a thermos flask, as well as candles and a torch for night-time, as there is no electricity in the tents.

Camera batteries can be recharged at the bar (in the lodge).

The tents are furnished with twin or double beds and each tent has its own stone veranda, which has been beautifully built out of large stone slabs.
From here you can sit in a comfortable director's chair, making the most of your great views of the lake, and the animals that come down there to drink.
