What’s Happening….

It has been quite a while since my last Blog entry. Things at the lodge have been rather busy, which is always a good sign. As they say “No news is good news”

We are busy as always and the new Spa is doing very well! Kea (Spa Therapist) is ever present at the lodge during the day, so if you are planning a visit, I think a Spa Treatment is a must! All the products are natural and we also have them as amenities in the rooms, I can highly recommend the scented diffusers (also in the rooms) as they are heavenly, and available at the lodge, be sure to ask your host.

Craig had us create our own “up to the minute” Weather Station. This was a lot of fun and we had a good laugh, be sure to keep an eye out between Honeymoon Suites 1 and 2. I have taken some photos for everyone to enjoy! image1

 

 

 

 

 

As some of our guests may remember we had a “Lodge Cat” named Savannah, she was an African Wild Cat that lived with us here at the lodge and sadly she passed on. She left a rather big empty space in the hearts of Staff and Guests alike. img_2838
Around the end of last year we “adopted” another African Wild Cat from a nearby lodge. They could not care for him and asked if we wanted to keep him as they were looking for a good home. Of course we jumped at the opportunity!

 

 

Chef Vusi decided to call him “Zingela” which directly translates to “Little Hunter” the first couple of days Zingela was a little skittish to his new surroundings and he did not like us approaching him. But he soon settled in and is now the new “King of the Castle” As you can see he spends his days napping around the lodge. If given half a chance he will make himself comfortable on your bed! The Chefs have spoilt him rotten and he has become part of the team. img_3228
