The eight luxury tents set on high wooden decking with magnificent views of the river and of the forest beyond, melt into the background,
becoming part of their surroundings so that animals wander freely through the camp.

The tents are discreetly set apart; they are on raised wooden platforms, for safety, for coolness and to give good views.

Tent interior

The tents are "Meru-style" of green canvas and have double ceilings for coolness and double zipped doors,
one of canvas and one of gauze, to keep out insects, and there are roll down canvas blinds on the netted windows, both inside and out.
There is a floor fan. Generators supply power for most of the day. When they are turned off, battery inverters in each tent ensure a continued supply of electricity.

There are two family tents, the remainder are double or twin tents.
