Bush Baby Glen
The first thing that strikes you at Bush Baby Glen is the view over the riverine forests of the Sabana River to the hills beyond. The second thing is the units, which are spacious, light and cool.
The dcor is tastefully understated and each unit has its own kitchenette that is so well equipped, you could produce gourmet meals should you so wish, while the living areas have cosy couches, flat screen TVs and DStv. Each unit also has its own entrance, deck and braai area.
The king-size beds are extra length and fitted with crispy white percale cotton linen, and can be configured as twin beds for two adults sharing. Three of the units also contain sleeper couches which means that a family of three or four can share and not feel cramped.
Bush Baby Glen has a lovely pool for the use of guests near the entrance gate and guests are welcome to walk around, enjoy our gardens, ponds and the Sabana River. If you do not feel like cooking, great eating places are located close by and your hosts, Andrew and Auriol, are on hand to make recommendations.
Bush Baby Glen is ideally located in the middle of everything - adventuring next door, panoramic trips to God's Window, Pilgrim's Rest and Graskop. Elephant rides, sky trailing and scenic flights are all available close by.
The Kruger National Park is only 22 km away. The bird life is awesome and then there are the cries of the bush baby that can, on occasion, be seen in the canopy around the units.

"Nice and affordable place"
23 November 2016"The guests are adorable and are really likely to help you organize your journey. <br/>The room was immense (even though we had the smaller one!), comfortable, quiet, convenient and the view is amazing. I wish we had stay longer in Bush Baby Glen. <br/>The pool is perfect. <br/>Really close to Kruger Park (Numbi Gate) is 10km away! <br/><br/>I highly recommend this place for a stay around Hazyview / Kruger Park. <br/><br/>Many thanks! :)"

"What a vacation / home"
07 November 2016"Our stay at the Bush Baby Glen was more than a vacation, but home.<br/><br/>There is everything one might need to use while at the Bush Baby Glen.<br/><br/>The rooms are specious and clean.<br/><br/>The sound of the river running and the birds singing makes you realise the beauty of nature.<br/><br/>The owners are so friendly that you will think you are the ONLY special visitor.<br/><br/>My ONLY worry was that our vacation was too short, we needed more days - it's a definitely comeback."

"Weekend Get away"
23 September 2015"we had a lovely weekend with my wife at Bush baby glen, cosy apartment with everything you need, they even have an iron and a heater for the chilli nights and days. Friendly owners whowere not tired of answering all my emails with places to see or eat as it was my wife's birthday. the place is not over advertised as what you see on the website is actuallyhow the place is, they are central to all attractions and thanks to theirromantic dinner suggestion "Pioneer Butcher and Grill" is the place to eat at when visiting that area. Thanks Andrew & Auriol we enjoyed our stay."

"Lovely place"
01 January 2014"What more does one need than the hospitality of two beautiful people, Andrew and Auriol, thank you for the time and effort you put into this lovely place. Well-equipped kitchen, large rooms, well kept garden and swimming pool and lots of bird species to add to your list. It would be easier to write what is wrong with Nwanakalile Lodge as it would save a lot of effort. We celebrate what is right with the place as the list goes on endlessly.Jan & Denise de Ridder"
