discover rustic charm: woodbury tented camp

A hidden jewel in the heart of
Amakhala Game Reserve, offering
an authentic African experience.

In 2002, the Gush partnership added a rustic tented camp on a wooded hilltop to the west of Woodbury Lodge. The layout of the camp was specifically designed to recreate the memory of previous bush camps enjoyed by the farming families in the area, with paths woven in amongst indigenous bush between the tents and a central campfire built in a small clearing.

Today, Woodbury Tented Camp features 10 tents on raised wooden decks, including two double tents for families. The tents are designed for style and comfort in the bush with king-size or twin beds at your request and en-suite bathrooms with all the amenities you may require. The deck railings are carved from sneezewood posts originally used as fence posts by the Gush forebears  – a symbolic return to nature after 100 years in an agricultural setting.

Camp life is centered around the thatch-and-canvas communal area which leads out onto a viewing deck overlooking the magnificent Woodbury plains. The waterhole directly in front of the camp is regularly visited by a wide variety of game, including lion, rhino and elephant, making for  unforgettable sightings of these iconic species from the vantage point of the breakfast table!

Join our friendly and professional field guides on two game drives per day, as they go in search of the Big Five and a wide variety of African flora and fauna. Soak up the sun between drives while lazing on a recliner next to the pool, and enjoy delicious African cuisine with your fellow guests at meal times. The traditional boma is the place to be in the evenings, reliving the day’s adventures around a crackling fire. This is what safari dreams are made of.

"Fantastic!! Do it!"

What an experience! We were at Woodbury tented camp in Amakhala for one night with safaris in the evening and morning. Our guide was Roxi and she made the entire time there truly brilliant. The camp facilities and staff were exceptional with great service and food included. Roxi was the person who made the actual safaris so good. Her knowledge, experience and even the way she handled the vehicle in very challenging environments made our trips out so memorable. The tent facilities were incredible, including shower and air conditioning. The common area space was really comfortable and cozy with a fire greeting you when returning from a drive. The food was great and plentiful as was the drink. I cannot recommend these people, service and whole experience enough. Five stars !!!
