★★★★★ The Bush Cabin was a rustic comfortable experience of some outdoor living with amazing views. If you love the outdoors and all that goes with it - this is an amazing experience. We also spent some time in the "Dungolos" which were are amazing and a lot less rustic. Staff were super friendly and helpful and it is super close to the Addo Elephant Park- highly recommended venue!
