Set exquisitely in indigenous gardens shaded by knobthorn trees, a stay at Idube combines the peace and tranquillity of the unspoiled bush with the comfort and amenities of a luxury lodge. This is a place to relax and unwind amid some of South Africa’s finest vistas accompanied only by a refreshing drink and the abundance of wildlife that comes to drink at the nearby Shadulu Dam. Then after an exciting night drive, gather by the boma to savour some fine African cuisine and be regaled the ranger’s tales of their bush experiences.
