Every room has its own charm, style and story, not forgetting a vibrant collection of both international and African art. One can expect a luxurious and tranquil space to revitalise and rediscover one of South Africa’s most sought after safari destinations.
Named after the prickly porcupines that are often seen from the deck after dark, this room in on ground level and is one of the most spacious at 85 SQM in size and the most secluded of all the suites. Elegant touches include a Daniel Novella piece, Persian rugs, Melvin & Moon chairs, a large leopard oil painting by James Stroud, hanging palm lights and a 2.4m Ardmore wall hanging, making this the most colourful of spaces.
