“Robins Camp has been fully renovated and is now privately run. The lounge, bar and dining areas have been beautifully refurbished and some of the old photo's and painting were incorporated in the interior decorating. All chalets are en-suite with fans and some with aircons. There is a beautiful big pool in the gardens. Meals and drinks are served and activities like game drives and walks are on offer. There are also conference or group facilities available. The campsite has also been upgraded and has an electrical fence and brand new ablution blocks.
