Our little secret, the Dove’s Nest, is just about the best way to get away from it all. There are few things more exciting than spending a night out in a tree-house. This wonderful sleep out is a complimentary add-on to a booking with The Hide.
Overlooking the open tree-lined vlei and pan where giraffe and elephants commonly come to drink, this wildly romantic gem is a perfect vantage point from which to view wildlife safely, quietly. Just the two of you. Kept simple, as a tree-house should be, the bedroom of the Dove’s Nest is reached by a wooden stairway and trap door. Guests are dropped off after the afternoon activity and dinner and drinks await.
You won’t have to forego your hot shower and warm bed and the location is second-to-none. Truly an unforgettable experience! Book in advance. The Dove's Nest is especially perfect for honeymooners, anniversaries and solo retreats.
