The Timbavatu Private Nature reserve is on the northeast border of South Africa. The tents here look as though they have been taken off a dry river bed. The herd of Cape buffalo had peacefully trekked though the camp the previous night. Tanda Tula means “the love of the quiet”.
And when its night time, all you hear is silence. That of course is apart from the sounds of the wild animal calls. , you will be able to hear elephants, buffaloes, and sometimes even lions. The bird calls are heard early in the morning. Over here is a one thousand foot air strip that is just a forty five minutes drive away from the nearest private airport.
The rooms are basically just tenets that are hidden in the groves of the trees. The tents have a bed, a desk and a couch. The rooms have private decks with two honest looking armchairs which are great for kickback back with a pair of binoculars and you may be lucky to spot a herd of Impalas. There are no air conditioners or heating vents and that’s why in the winders you could come back to your tent to find a bench of hot water bottles that have been placed under your blanket during the nights. The bathrooms are at the back of the tent, and they are quite huge. Also they have large Victorian tubs with outdoor showers. The outdoors showers are private, so you don’t have to worry about any peeping toms.
