About Notten’s Bush Camp

Notten’s Bush Camp is now in its fourth generation with the Notten family, showcasing a dedicated service and a strong attention to detail. Set in the pristine Sabi Sands Reserve, the lodge is the perfect place for witnessing Africa’s beauty, wild animals and undulating landscapes. Travellers choose Notten’s Bush Camp because of the beauty of the Sabi Sands Reserve, the expansive space and limited game vehicles – and most importantly – for its diverse and rich wildlife.

The Notten’s Bush Camp Accommodation

Guests can pick one of the 9 private suites, which each feature a wooden deck from where you can enjoy surrounding views. Instead of electricity, Notten’s Bush Camp uses candles and paraffin lamps for an authentic and romantic safari ambience. The elegant suites are upping the standards of 4-star luxury and each suite has an ensuite bath, indoor-outdoor shower and open-plan bedroom.

The lodge’s main lounge and deck has a fully stocked bar and wine cellar; and overlooks the waterhole where wild animals can be viewed. With its 20-meter swimming pool, guests can either stay fit and swim laps or suntan and relax with a cocktail.

If you’re after some relaxation, then try out the in-house spa with an indoor-outdoor treatment room and plunge pool. With a focus on natural treatments, guests can relax, refresh and rejuvenate. Cuisine at Notten’s Bush Camp is a social event and is enjoyed in the boma, under the stars, or at the communal table.
