As one of the original private game lodges in South Africa, Notten’s Bush Camp offers a truly authentic African safari experience.

Notten’s is an award winner for “Best Safari Lodge in Africa” runner-up 2008.

Notten’s Bush Camp is a jewel within the heart of the Sabi Sand Game Reserve in Mpumalanga, which means “the land of the rising sun” in the locally spoken language, Shangaan. Notten’s is an exclusive and private safari lodge personally run by the Notten family.
