Tucked away in the bush, driving past giraffes every day, and being greeted by impala in the morning was lots of fun. Even saw some bush babies. Also, Shirley was a great hostess to have nearby. She was quick to answer questions even late at night.

Welcome to Khumbula iAfrica. We are delighted to share our second home with you and hope you will enjoy this authentic African bush house — warm, cozy, and full of character rather than modern luxury accommodation. Surrounded by nature, close to the Crocodile River, opposite Kruger National Park, and just a 20-minute drive from Crocodile Bridge Gate, this is the perfect place for a true African bush experience. Enjoy the peace and quiet of the bush while zebras, kudus, and warthogs roam freely through the area. Life in the bush can sometimes bring unexpected power outages. That’s why we prefer cooking with gas and have backup systems in place for the fridge, lighting, and water supply, ensuring your stay remains comfortable and relaxed at all times. At Khumbula iAfrica, we invite you to slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy the perfect balance of African charm, modern comfort, and heartfelt hospitality. We hope this becomes a place you’ll always remember. 🦒🌿
We are Corné & Els, Dutch but living in the Austrian Alps. Together with our housekeepers Shirley & Zac, we look forward to welcoming you for a memorable bush experience. 🦒🌿
Step into the magic of Marloth Park, where zebras graze beside your veranda, kudus wander quietly through the streets, and golden sunsets paint the African bush in warm colours. Here, nature is not something you visit — it becomes part of your everyday life, inviting you to slow down, breathe, and truly unwind. Located just a 20-minute drive from the southern entrance of Kruger National Park at Crocodile Bridge Gate, Marloth Park offers the perfect base for an unforgettable safari experience. You’ll also find a selection of lovely restaurants, cafés, and small shops nearby for your convenience. What we love most, however, is the feeling of being completely immersed in nature. Even while relaxing at home, wildlife is all around you — making you feel like part of the African bush itself. For an unforgettable adventure, take a safari into Kruger National Park and discover its incredible wildlife, from lions and elephants to hippos, giraffes, and rare bird species. Adventure, peace, and pure nature await just outside your door. 🦒🌿
