I hadn't camped for a while, so ended up inadvertently forgetting to pack a towel and soap. When I asked an attendant where I could buy one, he said no problem, the lodge next door can provide one. And they did, plus soap. I was impressed. The staff were friendly, the food passable, although breakfast was scanty. If you didn't go early there would be very little breakfast for you, and the staff seemed to want to clear it way before 10am. Overall really decent place, and they let the team use the pool next door at the lodge. I was surprised to learn we were the first guests, they really were on top of their game. Kudos

Loved the cabins, the trees in the campsite, the tables, seats spread out through the campsite, the stone and wood dinning area, the bathrooms were fancy for campers. It was literally a beautiful campsite with a well lit field you could play football in the night.

Absolutely loved this place - team is very friendly, the setup is beautiful, especially at night, with lights among the trees. Bathrooms are clean, catering from next door's resort top-notch, and access to its swimming pool just rounds it off perfectly! The rooms are cosy and very fairly priced. They will also put you in touch with brilliant guides who can organise all kinds of trips and activities in the area. Thank you May and team for hosting us, we will be back!!
