Named after the lioness of 'Born Free' fame, Elsa's Kopje blends into the rocky crags just above George Adamson's original campsite. It is a hidden jewel amid untamed wilderness, home to an enormous diversity of species. Nine luxurious open plan designer cottages are each attended by a butler, and come complete with a sumptuous bathroom and the ultimate view across the plains. Activities include game drives, guided walks, visits to a tribal village, bush breakfasts and of course, sundowners. The sense of space, style and pure relaxation is complemented by an exceptionally inviting infinity pool with a truly fabulous outlook. The food is equally appealing, fresh and delicious.
