14 km away from Ndlovu Camp, Hlane’s stunning and secluded Bhubesi Self-catering Camp overlooks the Mbuluzi River. Set in a mature riverine forest, outside the big game area, Bhubesi is perfect for individuals and small groups, birders and quiet retreats.

Each of the 6 cottages is fully self-contained, with two en-suite rooms, a large lounge and open plan kitchenette.  Private fireplaces with braai grids are the perfect setting for nights under the African stars. A large social area is being constructed (2016) to the side of the cottages, providing a self-catering group facility with ample seating, a large preparation and cooking area with a wash up facility.

To best explore Hlane Royal National Park, guided walks, game drives and mountain biking can be booked at Ndlovu Camp, accessible by internal self-drive roads.   For groups staying at Bhubesi, guided walks can be arranged from the camp itself.  No night travel is permitted on Hlane for animal safety and park security reasons.
