Accommodation

• The cottages consist of five standard rooms, and two suites, and a new one-bedroom private house - The Rhino House.
• The bedrooms, with large and comfortable beds, are open fronted and the en-suite bathrooms are bush-deluxe. And throughout, the cooling sounds of the river run.

Selous safari game drives, boating and walking safaris are organised inside the park. Fly camping, nature treks and birdwatching are also arranged.
Dining
• A central dining area and several peaceful sitting areas overlook the Rufiji river. The main mess and dining area is set close to the river, and is a generous space. It's grand yet cosy, the atmosphere is familiar, and the service at-your-whim.
