DG Overlanding stayed at Phangwa Bush Camp - a really nice bush camp. Quiet and peaceful. Phangwa has lovely big private ablutions, they provide a braai and there is a lovely clean swimming pool. Situated within Dinokeng Big 5 Game Reserve, but within a conservancy, Phangwa Bush Camp is unfenced and plains game roam freely. Electric power is also provided.

A really nice campsite (and more!) near Pretoria and Johannesburg.

They have campsites with private ablutions, communal ablution campsites, safari tents, lodge chalets as well as an off-grid campsite. All really well appointed.

The private ablutions have everything that you need. There is electric power, as well as a lovely bona (at each private ablution site) and a lovely built-up braai and fire pit.

The campsite has a super swimming pool, as well.

It's situated on a game farm, but no self-drives are allowed. They do (at an additional charge) provide game drives. There is a small shop as well.

We enjoyed our stay here!

Jabula Bush Camp, located in the Dinokeng Game Reserve, is a really lovely campsite.

Its unfenced and has no electricity. Bring along your solar panel.

But the ablution does have solar lighting. In addition, it has a lovely shower (hot water from a gas geyser) as well as a flush toilet. There is also a super outdoor shower. The fire/braai pit is nice and big.

The sites are far apart, so you don’t see or hear your neighbours.

We really enjoyed our time at Jabula. Lovely!!

Erasmus offers private ablutions (although not at your site, but a short distance away and three ablutions in one block) electric power and some shade. The have a swimming pool as well as a kiddies play area. The camp has only 6 sites, so its relatively quiet. Some sites are along the fence and three are not.

One of our favourite campsites !

Kyleu Bush Camp is situated withing the Dinokeng Game Reserve in Gauteng South Africa. It had both fenced and unfenced campsites with private ablutions as well as off-grid campsites with no facilities.

There is no power at the sites so you need to have solar to keep your fridge running and the lights on at night.

What we liked about Kyleu:

• Lovely private ablutions with hot water from gas
• The unfenced feeling of the African wilderness
• Stands are far enough apart so mit feels like you almost alone in the bush
• The animals passing through
• Free standing braai (that you can move around)
• Fire pit

What we did not like about Kyleu:

• Can sometimes hear the noise from the tounship (even though it's outside the park). Although this is not really a problem as it's quiet during the week, but on weekends can possibly be a rumble in the jungle. Not bad, though.
