Bateleur SAfari Camp is located in South Africa's world renowned Timbavati Private Nature Reserve, an exceptional safari location. All artificial barriers between the Timbavati and the adjacent Kruger National Park have been removed and the camp itself shares unfenced borders with Kruger, allowing free animal movement.
The safari units vary in size, each sleeping 2-4 persons in comfort with spacious beds, quality linen, mosquito nets, bedside tables, solar powered bedside lamps, wardrobes, adequate storage facilities, secure safes for valuables and a solar powered fan for the hot weather. Plug points are provided for charging camera batteries. Each spacious en-suite bathroom has a flush-toilet, basin and a hot-water shower. Some units have an interior bathtub and a private outdoor shower.
Rest assured that you are truly in a reserve that cares for nature and the impact humans make on the environment. Here solar power is used wherever possible, such as for fans and lights. Kitchen appliances have been sourced for a minimal draw and 4W LED lights are utilized throughput the camp and staff quarters.
Bateleur SAfari Camp has an animal-proof vegetable and herb garden, in which a variety of veggies are grown, including leafy greens, herbs, berries, lemons and limes, cherry tomatoes. Natural garden compost is mulched on site.
All cleaning products and shower gel/hand soaps are 100% eco-friendly, containing ‘beneficial bacteria’ to actively biodegrade dirt in the process of cleaning, thereby eliminating chemical and dirt transfer to the environment. These products are locally produced and not tested on animals. The washing of camp linen and towels is outsourced to a local company in town who only use eco-friendly, biodegradable, hypo-allergenic products.
Given the location and the extensive transversing area in the Timbavati, exceptional game and bird viewing are assured. Tailored safaris are planned around the interests and energy levels of the guests, and whether on a dawn or dusk safari, there are usually no other vehicles seen on the drives.
Always encouraged are game walks as they bring one closer to nature and the appreciation thereof changes ones perspective and viewpoint. Always in the company of knowledgable and armed guides you will learn interesting and useful bush and animal facts.
