Tree Tops View Lodge

Tree Tops View Lodge is a fully self-catering family bush house situated in the Mabalingwe Nature Reserve near Bela Bela.

The house was built by a nature loving family. Now you as well, can enjoy the bush and its animals. The lodge is not a usual thatched game reserve holiday home, but it has a strong European character and is very light and airy.

The lodge has four double bedrooms and two bathroom en-suites, as well as a large dining area and a fully-equipped open kitchen.

The front of the house with the lounge, opens up completely with concertina doors to an open deck with a swimming pool and a braai area.

The open plan kitchen, dining area and lounge provides a grand space and becomes part of the outside if all concertina doors are open.

It's a perfect getaway for a group of friends or family.

This lodge is regularly visited by several game species and as the deck is raised, you have a fantastic game viewing opportunity and at night, superb star gazing.

We welcome all our guests with open arms but we do request the highest respect for nature (as well the animals as the bush) and our property.

The Tree Tops View Lodge is not available for parties (matriculations parties, year-end functions, birthday parties, bachelor parties etc.) as the noise disturbs the neighbors and bush life. This is a place to relax and to enjoy nature.
