Stayed at: Thornybush Game Reserve
Tasteful Elegance
We spent a very lovely 2 night stay at Thornybush Game Lodge. It was a tasteful elegance despite its large size. We were made to feel very welcome and enjoyed our time with Tracey our ranger. The food was delicious and sighting galore.
Thornybush Game Reserve is a private wildlife reserve that shares a fenceless border with the famed Kruger National Park in South Africa. Close encounters with the Big 5 are among some of the amazing experiences for Thornybush Game Reserve guests, with lion and leopard sightings a common occurrence. Considered one of the best safari destinations in the country, the luxury safari lodges of Thornybush Game Reserve, among a rich tapestry of wildlife, offer guests an immersive and unforgettable bush experience, whether embarking on a romantic escapade or enjoying a family holiday safari.
With a touch of sophistication in the lodge's design and layout, the thatched main area overlooks a waterhole and riverbed regularly visited by elephants, buffalo and other large game. The classic lower deck flows between the open dining area and a beautiful bar where guests can enjoy delicious meals and refreshing sundowners. Whether enjoying Ottolenghi-style salads at harvest tables, tapas poolside, or lantern-lit riverbed dining, the food consistently delights. The lodge also offers serene environments where skilled therapists use Africology products to provide tailored treatments for stress, fatigue, anti-ageing, and relaxation.
Considered one of the largest and oldest safari areas in South Africa, the Greater Kruger region is made up of the Kruger National Park, Sabi Sands, Manyeleti, Thornybush, and other surrounding private game reserves. The entire area is one of the best places to view wildlife, experience guided walks and explore some of the wildest areas in the country.
Thornybush Game Reserve shares unfenced borders with the Kruger National Park, offering a haven for diverse indigenous game and incredible wildlife viewing opportunities. With the Big Five freely roaming under the vast skies of the Greater Kruger Park, guests can enjoy thrilling sightings on game drives or bush walks led by skilled guides, or from the comfort of their safari lodge.
