Boutique glamping at Africamps at Pat Busch

From Plett to the Midlands each Africamp site offers a super-slick set-up with all the amenities you could think of – from microwave to electric blanket, yet all housed in a super cute yet spacious canvas tent in some truly stunning natural settings around the country.

My husband and I are were recently hosted at the Pat Busch Mountain Reserve in Robertson and were nothing but impressed.

A two-bedroom tent – with a fully-equipped kitchen, indoor wood-burning stove fireplace, generous shower, air conditioning and a deck with braai – offers utmost comfort, yet is still rustic enough that the feeling of escaping city life and immersion into nature that you get with traditional camping is not lost.

Pat Busch is nestled in a lush valley and offers 10 tents, a communal pool, fishing dam (I believe my husband got his PB in the amount of large-mouthed bass caught in one day), bikes and kayaks for hire and a few hiking trail options as well as loads of bird-spotting opportunities.

If you’re looking for a city escape and relaxing getaway in a stunning setting, Africamps at Pat Busch comes highly recommended.

Tents start from R1,140 per night. For more info or to make a booking go to www.africamps.com.
