Surrounded by manicured lawns, yellow fever trees, and wildlife-laced lake shores, it invites guests to slow down, breathe deeply, and rediscover the art of stillness.
This is not your typical safari stay—it’s a wellness of the soul wrapped in heritage and nature.
With no fences between you and nature, wildlife roams freely through the estate. Expect daily sightings of:
