HLUHLUWE BUSH CAMP

Hluhluwe Bush Camp should definitely be your glamping destination of choice. A privately owned farm, the camp has five luxurious self-catering glamping tents, two adventure tents and 4×4 camping facilities. It overlooks False Bay and is only a 25-minute drive from the Hluhluwe/ Imfolozi Park.
