Set along a ridge on the site of the original 1920s camp, the classic homestead style of Kirkman’s Kamp brings to mind the early-safari era; historic pictures and a lodge experience that tells superb stories of the early days in Sabi Sand, Greater Kruger. Step back in time into the gracious early Transvaal atmosphere of this original 1920s homestead and marvel at the spectacular views of the unspoiled landscape that surrounds the Sand River from each of the 18 guest suites. Rolling lawns carve out a niche in a wild and tumbling wilderness that host memorable game viewing in one of the most renowned Big Five wildlife regions in the world. Spacious sitting, dining and bar areas steeped in the colonial atmosphere of gracious style and luxury contain mementoes of a time long past, while the untamed wilderness outside whispers a promise of adventures not to be forgotten.

For the second year in a row, Kirkman’s Kamp has been recognised in the Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards as one of the best resorts in South Africa.

To receive this recognition through the votes of our guests and wider community makes it particularly special. It is a reflection of the people who have shared in the warmth, character and unmistakable spirit of Kirkman’s - and for that, we are truly thankful.

An authentic homestead at heart, Kirkman’s has a way of making you feel like a part of its story. Its history lives in the character of the camp, in long lunches and fireside evenings, in the familiar welcome of our people and in the unhurried rhythm of life in the bush. That authenticity is not something we simply preserve; it is woven into the way we welcome, host and share this place with every guest who arrives.

Beyond the Camp lies a wilderness that has its own stories to tell. Days unfold among abundant wildlife, ancient landscapes and the ever-present Sand River. A vital thread connecting our properties and bringing life to the wild places around us.

We are honoured to be able to share a little of Kirkman’s spirit with the world, and look forward to welcoming many more of you to experience its warmth, its wildness and its enduring sense of place.

Wild stories start small.
While mum is off hunting, the wild becomes a playground for leopard cubs. Time to climb a little higher and wander a little further at their own pace.

When the secret ingredient is a personal touch.
If you’ve stayed with us, you’ve probably met Lulama, the heart behind so many guest favourites. His personal touch turns every meal into something that stays with you.
