Lush Private Lodge - The Lupini family, rooted in tradition and closeness, are living out their dreams by creating a nurturing place for all to enjoy in the African bush. After searching for the right place, the location for the lodge would reveal itself with the appearance of a rarely-seen herd of buffalo. This was the sign. The Lupinis had found where new foundations could be laid down.
Lush, tucked into a wooded hillside, holds you in the bush and in the moment. Five individual, luxury suites afford the privacy of home, while the main lodge, run on Italian hospitality, ensures you are very well taken care of. Life in an unspoilt wilderness, free of everyday concerns, creates a sense of wholeness. All at once you are in tune with the beat of the wild, belonging back in nature.
Accommodation at Lush Private Lodge:
Choose from three Bush-facing or two Mountain-facing Suites distinguished only by their views interspersed between the trees. Each is not simply a base from which to explore your surrounds, buta living space designed with every comfort in mind. Your emperor bed, topped by a down duvet and pillows, is a roll away from a pause area, with a well stocked Smeg minibar and range of Nespresso coffees.
A few steps to the other side is a free-standing bath with a view lie back and soak up the scenery. Around the corner, a walk-in rain shower opens out to an open air shower. Body products, with botanical extracts, heighten the sensory experience.
Unlike any other national game park, the Pilanesberg hosts a combination of animal, bird, insect, reptilian and vegetation species, such as the Brown Hyena, Springbok, Red Eyed Bulbul and Camel Thorn tree. The Pilanesberg National Park is the perfect combination of the Kalahari and the wetter Lowveld. A major advantage of the Pilanesberg is that it is ‘Malaria Free’, which is not the case with other game parks further north. Sun City, best known for hosting the Million Dollar Golf Challenge and other spectacular events, lies on the border of the Pilanesberg, and is only a 33 km drive from the Black Rhino Game Reserve.
