    Great location if you want to be more into the wild than by the road. Some animals did approach including a huge eland at night which was both terrifying and exciting (what I was looking for!). Even saw a rare small breed of cat known as a genet...

Nestled in the heart of the African Bush, a stone's throw from the Crocodile River adjacent to the Kruger Park Game reserve, lies this beautifully furnished bush home complete with fully kitted kitchen with dishwasher. Enjoy the sounds of the bush while watching Giraffe, Zebra, Kudu and other animals graze in garden. With a BBQ, Firepit & Splash pool this offers a truly unique and memorable experience. All rooms are fitted with ceiling fans and the doors and windows all have mosquito screens. The house is a non smoking environment. In the evenings, whilst enjoying sitting around the fire, if you're quiet enough, one of the world's smallest primates (Bushbabies) & other nocturnal wildlife may pay you a visit. Listen to the roar of the Lions and the cries of the Hyena in the riverbed. Visit Kruger Park either self driven through Crocodile Bridge only a 15min drive away or with an organized tour using Kruger 5 Safaris. Enjoy a daytime bush walk along the Crocodile River, take sundowners down to the bank of the river. Portable tables & Chairs are provided to facilitate this opportunity. Feed your soul and breath in this truly unique experience.
Njiri Lodge is our piece of Africa, a home that always feed our souls, gives us time to think and make decisions in life which we all need. So many magical memories we have of Marloth over the years from animals to laughter to magical animal experiences by the river. Avid bird and game watchers we both enjoy walking in the bush and experiencing the the finer details of nature. Photography is one of our favorite pass times and the location of Marloth to Kruger is unique giving us opportunities that would be hard to find elsewhere. We have always relished watching the joy our home has given friends who have stayed at Marloth and would like to share the experience. One our favorite past times is to take the folding chairs and table in the car down to river find a shady spot bring out the cool bag for sundowners or breakfast and watch the animal and bird activity for several hours. A unique opportunity of watching the big five environment regularly and seeing life unfold.
Marloth Park is situated on the bank of the Crocodile River, one bank is Marloth and the opposite bank is the Kruger National Park. This offers you a unique opportunity to be able to have full access to several kilometers of river frontage where you can see the Big 5 coming down to drink together with many other animals and abundant bird life. Situated a 15 minute drive from Kruger National Park Gate providing further opportunities of day and night drives, either self driven or guided. Njiri Lodge offers guided drives through Kruger 5 Safaris, situated within walking distance of Njiri Lodge. The Bush Centre Shops provide basic requirements such as wood, food items and fuel. Within Marloth, there are pubs, restaurants and lodges where you can enjoy a meal, etc. For Children there is also a water park area, where adults can sit and enjoy a drink while children have fun.
