Khaya Morula is situated 260km from Pretoria on the foot ends of Madikwe Game Reserve, where we welcome guests to peaceful, malaria free surroundings with prolific birdlife.
This exclusive thatched lodge is nestled in the magnificent Limpopo bushveld with abundant fauna and flora offering the guests tranquillity and peace in the natural beauty of the wilderness.
Set in unspoilt natural surroundings are chalets, completed by the main Lodge crafted out of indigenous woods, local slate, reed and thatch. A relaxed atmosphere is created by the airy triple volume open plan design of the lodge.
The Main Lodge has seven rooms each decorated in a unique African theme featuring original local artefacts, weaving and beadwork, without compromising luxury or style. Each room has an en suite bathroom and is air-conditioned.
The focus of home and lodge life is the main “mess”, which serves as both dining and lounge area and includes a beautiful ladies bar with its rich warm colours that blends in with the raw texture of the lodge. It is the perfect venue to celebrate special birthdays, anniversaries, engagements and other private social or corporate events.
Complementing the main lodge are 3 chalets which furnishings are fashioned from stone and wood found around the camp. Spacious en suite bathrooms include dressing space, closets and a shower room with a stone floor. Rough bush texture give the bathroom a primitive feel. Hand crafted wooden beds offer the ultimate romantic experience with its natural soft earthy covers.
Khaya Morula cuisine is an artful fusion of both local and exotic served in the elegant formal dining room or beside a flickering campfire in the open boma. Bush food is not normally gourmet, but meals at Khaya Morula are memorable – not to indulgent, though definitely geared towards a refined palate. Dinner is a four course affair, while breakfasts are fresh, simple, special and inspiring.
ACTIVITIES
The Reserve is aimed at the more exclusive end of the market and the Lodge cater for guests on a fully inclusive basis. Activities include early morning and late afternoon game drives, walks and delectable bush braais.
