Their location is fantastic, they are one minute off the main road, and directly between town and the falls, as you cross the Maramba Bridge, turn first left, cross the railway and take second left down to the Maramba River. There are amazing birdlife, very peaceful bush setting with a massive natal mahogany, as they are directly opposite the crocodile farm, they have the weaver birds to add to the all day chorus ! They also have massive crocodiles that sunbath on the river ledge next to the camp and hippo's love to come and dine on the lawns on a nightly basis!
