Pioneer Camp is situated
upstream of Founders Camp and consists of three suites and three
chalets. The exclusive suites are all air-conditioned and feature a
hearth, en suite bathroom with indoor and outdoor shower plus a romantic
sala (intimate covered deck). The three river-front chalets are
air-conditioned and have an en suite bathroom and an outdoor shower.
The chalets are a sand colour with mudcloth bed spreads and raffia inset
cupboard doors with linen curtains, slate floors and largely West
African artefacts. The decor of the chalets presently mirrors that of
Founders Camp's chalets, but there are plans for renovating these rooms
to reflect the pioneer spirit of the suites at Pioneer Camp, which
display fascinating old fashioned pioneer pictures reflecting the Varty
family heritage. An interesting feature of the suites are their
chandeliers. There are heavy wooded beds, bay windows and seating built
out from the fire place.
The intimate guest area at Pioneer Camp provides a unique interactive
experience - the lounge, kitchen and dining areas are all open-plan. The
swimming pool is a welcoming treat on warmer days. Pioneer Camp is
completely self-contained. Guests are welcome to visit Londolozi
Bateleur Camp's curio shop and orientation centre.
At mealtimes, you can
savour Pan-African cuisine - truly food for the soul. This melange of
traditional African recipes is enhanced by Africa's famous spices -
saffron, vanilla, cumin and nutmeg. The dining area and kitchen are open
plan, offering an airy, expansive feel, enhancing your enjoyment of
delicious African dishes. Evening meals may also be enjoyed under the
stars in the boma (reeded enclosure).
