The Timbavati Private Nature Reserve forms part of the revered Greater Kruger region, and is one of the most sought after reserves for a private and exclusive safari experience. The reserve is famed for its wild white lions, abundance of big game and presence of the big five that thrive in this area. Sharing unfenced borders with the Kruger National Park and the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve, the Timbavati certainly doesn’t lack for any wildlife activity.
It makes sense then, that with an exclusive private reserve experience, you’d seek an exclusive accommodation experience. That’s where Walkers Bush Villa comes in. Imagine traversing the endless landscape with your own private guide and vehicle. Imagine getting the private chef to tailor-make a menu suited specifically to your palate. Imagine taking the kids with on safari, and a host of children’s activities are arranged for their entertainment. There’s plenty on offer at Walkers – and it’s all catered to your personality and what you want from your safari experience.
This exclusive villa sleeps 8 people in 4 bedrooms. There is one master bedroom adjoining the main house, and three separate rooms dotted around the scenic courtyard area. There’s an expansive patio is the perfect place enjoy an al fresco dining experience, and the classic indoor dining hall is ideal for a more formal or celebratory dinner experience.
There are even two lounges – one for reading and chatting, and the other for watching a spot of television. Decor is eclectic, and modern art pieces adorn the walls while hints of Africa are carried throughout. Ingrid and Howard Walker own the property and have over two decades experience in the country villa and hotel industry in Dullstroom. The atmosphere of Walkers Bush Villa certainly reminds of fine country living evident in the previous lodges owned by the Walkers.
Daily game drives are a must, and a leading guide will ensure guests enjoy the ultimate safari in a sought after reserve. Although flexible in terms of guests’ needs, morning and evening game drives are recommended. Dawn and dusk are when the predators are most active – the air is cooler and provides the perfect conditions for cats to be on the move. It is customary to stop during the morning game drive for coffee and the evening game drive for a sundowner.
The reserve is rich with birdlife and activity from plains game, pachyderms and small mammals. There are high concentrations of game in the Timbavati and spotting various species congregated around the numerous waterholes in the area is not uncommon.
Walkers offers safari exclusivity from start to finish.
