Avoca is an authentic safari retreat in the Timbavati Nature Reserve, and offers guests the opportunity to stay in affordable accommodation in the heart of a game-rich, world-reknown reserve
Avoca Private Bush Camp is a safari retreat for friends and family (children over 12) in the revered Timbavati Nature Reserve. Open to the Kruger National Park, yet occupying private land, Avoca is wild and tranquil, offering an exclusive safari experience in simple, bush camp accommodation.
This authentic camp can sleep up to 6 guests, which means an intimate and personalised safari experience awaits. There is also the option to book the entire camp, which can then accommodate up to 8 guests and allows for children under 12 (nb - only if camp is booked out).
The beauty of this private getaway spot is the lack of electricity, leaving all cooking and water heating up to gas and solar power. It is eco-friendly and idyllic, providing a peaceful spot to unwind and reconnect with the natural world. Avoca is a reformed hunting camp, now offering photographic safaris.
The Timbavati Nature Reserve is known for superb game viewing, and is also the home of some of the only wild white lions on earth. The town of Hoedspruit is about an hour’s drive away, offering a close-by refueling station with a wide variety of outdoor activities on offer.
