Rock Lodge is carved into a natural rock face, eight hundred feet above the reserve, affording dramatic views over the bush towards the Drakensberg Mountains from richly appointed rooms and suites linked by a network of wooden walkways. The Rock Cliff Rooms are spacious and all south facing with views over the vast landscape. The Rock Suite comes with two-bedrooms, ideal for families; the Makwela Suites have private balconies and infinity edge plunge pools.

A short distance from Rock lodge and linked by a raised walkway is Cliff Lodge, which when taken on an exclusive basis comes complete with its own ranger, tracker, safari vehicle and chef. Safari walks through the reserve are popular, while morning and afternoon game drives deliver the full-on Big 5 safari experience.
