Tamboti Bush Lodge

When you walk down this entrance to Tamboti Bush Lodge you already sense that this is no ordinary lodge in the bush, you get to feel the love and attention that owners Derrick and Pixie Cochran have given to their small intimate lodge. Tamboti Bush Lodge is in the middle of the Dinokeng Game Reserve. The only big 5 game reserve in Gauteng. The area is malaria free and is only one hours drive from Johannesburg. The N1 Highway takes you to just 6 kms from the game reserve gates and 10 kms from Tamboti Bush Lodge.

Tamboti Bush lodge is nestled in a grove of Tamboti trees and offer amazing birding opportunities to both avid birders and the real professionals.There are over 80 indigenous trees and over 200 species of birds around the lodge and in the veld. The 6 suites at the lodge are stunning, each with their own décor and style. The honeymoon suites are to die for, there are two log cabins overlooking the dams and the safari tent on the deck is amazing. All the suites have a TV and coffee making facilities.The gardens are well tended and look stunning in both summer and winter. The tea garden is always a welcome sight for the hungry and the thirsty.
And when the sweltering heat of the bushveld really gets to you, what better way to cool off than a dip in the pool.
