About Lillie @ Bushveld Bivouac

Lillie @ Bushveld Bivouac offers stunning, fully serviced, off-the-grid, self-catering glamping accommodation in Hoedspruit amongst the abundant birdlife and majestic flora, on an easily accessible 300-hectare farm with a wide range of plains game. Guests will enjoy magnificent views, unspoilt bush and beautiful amenities when booking the accommodation at Bushveld Bivouac in Mica, 30km from Hoedspruit.

Self Catering Accommodation

While all our sites were lovingly picked for their incredible views and natural elements (which have been incorporated as far as possible), the panorama from Lillie’s deck is breathtaking. Take in these unparalleled vistas from the wide expanse of deck, with its own star chestnut and bordered by wonderful rock formations. When it comes to the bathroom, the term “room with a view” takes on a whole new meaning.

This stunning site is named for the Lillie cycads which grow in the magical GaMashishimale hills of Selati game reserve that dominate the skyline from the deck. Some call these plants living fossils, others describe them as the most exotically beautiful plants the world has ever seen. This is the only known colony of Encephalartos Dyerianus on the planet – and is a critically endangered ancient and delicate plant, protected by armed guards to ensure their survival.

Lillie main tent is furnished with a King-size bed and has a ceiling fan. The en-suite bathroom is fitted with a shower, toilet and basin and has bathroom amenities, linen and towels provided. Lillie has a private kitchen equipped with a two-plate stove, fridge, crockery, cutlery and utensils.

There is a private plunge pool and firepit. Free Wi-Fi is provided.

Children under 14 years old will be accommodated on camp beds in their parents tent. A maximum of two children (under 14 years of age) per tent can be accommodated.

Optional Food / Shopping options

Complimentary fresh coffee, teas, sugar, creamer and rusks are provided and pastries and freshly squeezed juices can be delivered to the site by arrangement for an additional fee. Even though the sites are self-catering, as an extra at an additional cost, food shopping can be done on clients' behalf and delicious pre-prepared meals can be ordered, as well as a mouth-watering picnic basket for a day excursion.
