Rattray's on MalaMala - recognized internationally as 'the camp with a difference' has been recreated in the central area of MalaMala Game Reserve.
Michael and Norma Rattray have again chosen an 'African Cultural' safari theme - that of the traditional, creative Ndebele tribe of South Africa. The Ndebele are renowned for the manner in which they decorate their homes in a myriad of colours, each depicting a specific message. This image, together with the special safari experience that is synonymous with the original Rattray's, has been enhanced and improved. Rattray's remains the smallest and most intimate of the three camps in the MalaMala Game Reserve. Occupying an ideal elevated site on the banks of the perennial Sand River, the Ndebele-styled and decorated buildings of Rattray's offer a wonderful view of the river and the African bush. The camp is clustered amidst mature, indigenous trees in African park-like surroundings that sweep down to the river's edge.
Rattray's is ideal for the more informal visitor to the MalaMala Game Reserve. The camp has a 16 year old age limit. FACILITIES Facilities within the main building incorporate a viewing deck, an air-conditioned library providing a refuge for the literary devotee, an attractive bar showcasing the history of the area and an adjoining wine cellar stocked with a wide range of South Africa’s best wines. There is also a swimming pool, gymnasium, and a traditional 'boma' .
