Posted by Anita Froneman on 10 November 2022

Adventure-seekers, world-weary wanderers wanting to unwind, and nature lovers will find a tremendous value-for-money bush experience in the heart of KwaZulu-Natal. This December, Matatane Camp in Babanango Game Reserve is offering a “Pay for 3 nights, stay for 4” accommodation special!

Matatane

Go glamping, stargazing and ziplining, birding and tread barefoot on a riverbend beach. Set above the horseshoe bend of the White Umfolozi River on a gently undulating plateau, Matatane Camp sits in a fenced-off corner on the eastern flank of the biodiverse Babanango Game Reserve. Just three hours from Durban, views stretch across the forested hills and rugged outcrops of Zululand.

Accommodation options

CHALETS

Five raised chalets form the core of the main camp. Each bush chalet has a spacious bedroom, balcony and en-suite shower. A coffee and tea station comes complementary, as do filtered drinking water and shower amenities.

FAMILY CHALET

Two bigger chalets can accommodate two adults and two children under the age of 12 years old with bunk beds.

GLAMPING

Fall asleep to the sounds of the wild in Meru-style canvas tents. We have a few configurations available for campers that love their creature comforts: king-sized beds and twin rooms. Each tent has its own en-suite bathroom with showers and toilets, bedding, electric fan, desk and chair, plus tea-and-coffee-making facilities.

BACK-TO-BASICS TENTS

Unzip your front door to beautiful Babanango views, just bring your own bedding, sleeping bags, pillows and towels. These back-to-basics tents can each sleep six adults on dorm-style single beds or roll-up mattresses and feature two en-suite showers with two toilets.

WILD CAMPING

Rustic and raw, adventure-seekers with all the gear will relish this truly wild, genuine camping experience.

EXCLUSIVE USE

Have a great big family or a festive group of friends? Book out the entire Nhlebela Camp for your next group trip. Matatane’s glamping tents and chalets are arranged for groups to use the same communal area, but retreat to the relaxing privacy of your room or tent.

Refreshingly down-to-earth, Matatane Camp is no-frills and Big-Five-free for families and friends that love the free-range life and want to reconnect with the wilderness.
