About ThornForest Luxury Bush Lodge

ThornForest Luxury Bush Lodge offers bed and breakfast accommodation in Marloth Park, a nature conservancy situated on the southern border of the world-renowned Kruger National Park. The horizon is ablaze, as the sun sinks into its wild bed. The fireflies are flexing their wings as the fire crackles to life.

A cricket set’s the pitch for his band, and the cicadas awaken with an unmistakable rhythm. These are the opening bars of the wild bushveld symphony at ThornForest Luxury Bush Lodge.

Accommodation

ThornForest Luxury Bush Lodge has four air-conditioned rooms, with air-conditioning and mosquito nets. The en-suite bathrooms in each bedroom are fitted with a shower, a washbasin, and a toilet. Complimentary tea and coffee, filtered water (filtered on-site) in your bar fridge, is provided.

Please see the individual room descriptions with photographs below, to assist you with your choice.

Breakfast & Dining

There is a continental breakfast included with your overnight stay. For an early morning start, your next day breakfast is placed in the room's mini-bar fridge, giving you freedom to have breakfast when it suits you. If there is a preference for your breakfast to be served, this is available on request and at no additional charge.

For guests returning to ThornForest Luxury Bush Lodge after a day's outing, and who order a packed picnic lunch, your picnic will be in a cooler basket.

Attractions

We happily assist with your bookings for safari drives in Kruger National Park and day tours to the Panorama route, Maputo and Mozambique. Marloth Park boasts four of the Big Five, with the exception of the elephant.

However, elephants can often be seen splashing about in the Crocodile River that divides Marloth Park from the Kruger National Park. Rhino, buffalo, lion, and leopard can be found in Lionspruit, a separate game reserve within Marloth Park, while other wildlife such as kudu, zebra, giraffe, blue wildebeest, baboon, bushbuck, vervet monkeys, nyala, impala, warthog, and ostrich are free to roam between the units.
