Londolozi Varty Camp
Londolozi Private Game Reserve Location of Londolozi Varty Camp
In the centre
of Londolozi Private Game Reserve burns a fire in the very spot
where the Varty forefathers set up their tents 80 years ago. This
fire has been lit every night on the
same spot for generations and embodies the significance of this
camp and the continuity of the Varty custodianship. Varty camp
is the heart of Londolozi.
This emphasis on family heritage means that children have always
had a place at Londolozi, and this is particularly so at Varty
Camp.
Londolozi’s rich history is preserved and recorded in the
original camp built in 1926. Four rondavels, which date back to
the original Sparta Hunting Camp, are a special feature. Each
have been set dressed to reflect a time gone by, this museum is
a tribute to the early Bush veld Pioneers, a well-stocked wine
cellar and an library (with Internet access) also have a home
at Varty camp but it is Varty Camps main deck offering awe-inspiring
views of the Sand River that captures the true essence of Africa.
Historical photographs add to the congenial atmosphere of the
spacious deck, which incorporates an ancient Ebony Tree.
