Founders’ Camp

Londolozi Founders Camp from riverbed

BOHEMIAN SPIRIT

Founders’ Camp is a dreamy Bohemian-style ten-suite lodge set in a copse of matumi and leadwood trees on the banks of the Sand river. Designed to capture the spirit of decades of family history with guests who are pictured on the walls, it has the characteristic Londolozi welcome and unobtrusive impeccable service.
