WELCOME TO BUNDU LODGE
With superb cuisine and service, Bundu boasts 114 rooms (almost half of them 4 star grading) in addition to a much larger a la carte restaurant, as well as 10 fully-equipped conference venues and two quaint chapels – one indoors and one outdoors at the ‘wedding rocks’ – for the ultimate in romantic weddings.
Bundu’s proximity to Nelspruit and White River as well as the Kruger National Park and the Drakensberg, has contributed to making it the local lodge of choice. With all its tame and beautiful animals at the Bundu Animal Touch Farm, it really is a paradise for the children, making it ideal for the family getaway. Bundu’s success story could be largely attributed to its friendly and helpful staff members.
Most of them have been part of the Bundu family for more than 15 years, which in turn contributes immensely to the homely atmosphere one experiences at the lodge. Another stabilizing factor is that the Bundu property has not changed hands from the beginning (which was in 1981) when Mr. Willem Janson bought the land and went to reside there.

Some of our animals include bunnies, peacocks, ponies, geese, ducks, turkeys, horses, pigs, Shetland ponies, chickens, sheep and ostrich. The more tame ‘wild’ animals include zebra, blesbuck, warthogs, impala, giraffe, wildebeest etc. and they all roam around freely for the children and parents to enjoy in a safe and secure environment.
Nature & Wildlife
We all need to do our piece to conserve a piece of nature for our children and with Bundu being so close to the city it makes our piece of conservation area even so more special!
Bundu have invested huge amounts in to conservation, by establishing an invasive alien weed project that runs all year round, to anti-poaching units that protect and look after our wildlife, conserving our piece of nature. We have water recycling plants for irrigation, energy saving globes, geyser blankets, recycling etc. all in our bid to assist our country to conserve what we have inherited and to provide an inheritance for our next generations. Our wildlife is relatively tame and this enables one to get quite close to many of the more than 300 bird and almost 50 animal species that occur at "The Bundu"- from the fleet footed duiker to the magnificent Kudu or majestic Giraffe.
