Buchu Bush Camp
De Hoop Nature Reserve
Closed down for an indefinite period

Accommodation South Africa

Buchu Bush Camp is located around 70 km east of Cape Agulhas, the southern-most tip of Africa and a mere 1 km from the main gate of the De Hoop Nature Reserve. Situated 35 km off the N2 highway between Cape Town and the Garden Route, Buchu Bushcamp is comfortably under three hours drive from both Cape Town and George. Just 175km due east of Cape Town, Buchu Bushcamp lies just out of the winter rainfall region. It’s the warm Indian Ocean that does it! As one travels east from Cape Agulhas rainfall tends to be spread throughout the year, with the result that winter days are, more often than not, clear and crispy, while the summer heat is tempered by the odd shower or two. It really is a perfect year-round destination. “Comfortable Rustic” best describes the spacious three-star accommodation at Buchu Bushcamp. Three stars was all we were willing to aim for in this unique “back-to-nature” bushcamp; more stars and it could hardly be called a “rustic bushcamp”, though of course there are plenty of stars to gaze at in host clear night skies!

Two of the chalets are “very comfortable”, non-smoking bedrooms with en-suite showers. Both are equipped with twin beds with the option of a king-size double bed. There is also a sleeper couch in the living area. The remaining three chalets offer “nearly-as-comfortable” en-suite accommodation with twin beds or one standard double bed. These chalets also have two single beds on a mezzanine level and a sleeper couch in the living area; comfortable for four but rather a squeeze for six! Ideal for a family or a group of close friends willing to share the en-suite shower. This charming thatched structure, raised well above the ground, is the focal point of bushcamp life. Comprising living and dining areas, an indoor/outdoor licensed pub and private reading room the lapa caters for a comprehensive array of host guests’ needs. The tiered deck running the length of the northern side of the lapa is an ideal spot to soak up the sun and fresh air while the bushcamp staff spoil you with traditional South African hospitality.
