If you’re looking to get away from home and stay close to nature to recharge, this is the perfect place. The location is amazing, the landlady is very kind and helpful, and everything was clean and well maintained. I would definitely visit again.

I felt like part of the family and was treated with kindness and care. The property is really better suited for those with a vehicle, but I was still able to book tours for each day that picked me up at the house. Zyta generously assisted me when...

Nightjar Guest Lodge only has 2 guest rooms so it's quiet and peaceful. The lodge is on a 6 hectare plot in the suburbs of Nelspruit/Mbombela. Being so close to town and yet feeling like you're in the bush is what makes this lodge so unique. Both rooms are tastefully decorated with practicality in mind. The Garden Room has recently been upgraded to include a bath and air conditioner for your comfort.
My name is Zyta and I look forward to welcoming you. My family and I live in the main house so I'm available for any queries and advice you may need.
We are surrounded by Lowveld bush so you'll feel very close to nature.
