    Spacious and beautifully decorated room with large comfy bed. While in the city, the lodge is situated in a large natural bush environment and seems well away from others. Soft rugs especially at the shower where your feet sink in. Nice balcony...

Zyta Dietz
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.
