Full accommodation information

Each luxury tent features a private deck with plunge pool, hammock, sumptuous beds with electric blankets and fireplaces to keep you warm on the cooler mornings and evenings, and most provide the opportunity of bathing in the open air in an outdoor shower.

Bayethe Lodge is one of six luxurious lodges on the world-renowned Shamwari Private Game Reserve, an area of 61 770 acres of natural wilderness where over 5000 head of game roam freely including Africa's Big Five:

Lunch is served at the main lodge building or you may decide to join a guided game walk, enjoy a selection of body treatments at the relaxation retreat or visit the Born Free Big Cat Sanctuary or Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre.
