Wild. Rustic. Bliss. — A modern rustic safari lodge in the heart of Hoedspruit
Ngoma Bush Lodge is a modern rustic safari lodge set on the private 600-hectare Bushwillow Creek Farm, just 14 km from Hoedspruit town in Limpopo Province, South Africa. We offer a genuine, peaceful African bush experience where travellers can truly disconnect and immerse themselves in nature. Enjoy daily game drives on our private reserve included with every stay.
Our intimate lodge features five individually named rooms — Ntimbani (Giraffe), Mabala (Kudu Bull), Swala (Impala), Zalika (Beautiful Gazelle), and our romantic honeymoon suite, Mwitu (Royal Dwelling). Each room blends with the bush surroundings through earthy decor and natural textures, creating an authentic connection to the landscape. View our photo gallery to see our beautiful accommodations.
Located in the wildlife-rich Lowveld bushveld, we're perfectly positioned — just 30 minutes from Hoedspruit Eastgate Airport and one hour from Orpen Gate, Kruger National Park. We're also close to the spectacular Blyde River Canyon and the scenic Panorama Route, making us an ideal base for exploring South Africa's most breathtaking destinations.
