Turaco Lodge - South Africa. Up close and personal

TURACO LODGE

Turaco Lodge is situated within the wildlife conservancy of Marloth Park, just 15 minutes drive away from the Crocodile Bridge Gate into the Kruger National Park.

We are privileged to experience wildlife at close quarters, since the animals of Marloth Park are used to having people around and they are not at all skittish. You will see giraffe, zebra, warthogs and lots of different species of buck, to mention just some of the animals, on a daily basis, up close around the lodge and while walking through Marloth Park. Some visitors are lucky enough to get a rare sighting of cheetah, leopard or hyena as these animals travel through Marloth Park and occasionally stay for a while.

The birdlife is amazing! If you are a bird watcher, a "twitcher", or just love birds, then you have got to visit Marloth Park, where a really wide variety of bird species has been recorded and you can experience the magic of the KNP just by walking or driving along the northern boundary fence of Marloth, which runs along the Crocodile River. Elephant, hippo and crocodiles are common sightings here. Bring your camera!

TURACO ACCOMMODATION


Coral Tree		Marula		Tree-Wisteria

Turaco Lodge can accommodate 6 people in 3 luxuriously appointed rooms, each with a beautiful en-suite bathroom, overlooking the bush. Because there are only 3 rooms, our guests receive personal attention at all times. In order to promote a peaceful environment, we do not accommodate children under the age of 12 years. If you are booking a stay to celebrate a special occasion, please be sure to let us know so that we can help create the memories.

Each room is equipped with the makings for coffee and tea. Feel free to indulge just before bedtime, or join your hosts for a nightcap before settling in for a very comfortable sleep. Awaken refreshed and ready for the new day's adventures or choose to stay at the Lodge and relax around the pool. Lunch is available on request. Your stay includes dinner and breakfast, one game drive and one early morning walk in Marloth Park. Coffee and tea are available throughout the day at no charge.

Your dinner, delicious South African food, is served buffet style and you can choose to eat on the deck under the stars or in our comfortable dining room. We are sure you will leave the table well satisfied! We have a range of house wines to complement your food – feel free to ask for the list. Join us after dinner to sit around the fire and chat about the day's experiences or just to unwind as you feel the stresses of city life slipping away.

You can order a packed picnic breakfast and/or lunch to take with you into the KNP. There are facilities available in the KNP at various picnic sites for guests to cook their own breakfast. Speak to us if this sounds inviting to you!

We want you to enjoy your stay and have a truly memorable bush experience – so please let us know if there is anything that you would like to do and we will do our utmost to accommodate you.

Should there be something you feel you absolutely must see on television, there is a TV in your room with DSTV for your convenience and enjoyment.
