Property information

Welcome to DNA Studios - Adorable & Rustic Unique Accomodation. A haven created by nature enthusiasts who share a passion for the great outdoors. Founded by D. Shellard, our mission is simple: to provide nature lovers with an unforgettable escape in the heart of the African bush. We specialize in rustic yet luxurious glamping tents & chalet rooms, offering a front-row seat to nature’s beauty. Whether you’re seeking the perfect romantic getaway, a peaceful retreat, or an adventure in the wild, our accommodations are designed to blend comfort with the thrill of the untamed landscape. We believe in the power of nature to refresh, rejuvenate, and inspire. Our love for the outdoors and camping led us to create a space where you can experience the serenity of the bush without compromising on comfort. Each room thoughtfully will maximize the natural views and ambiance, our goal is to provide a memorable, immersive stay that allows you to reconnect with nature in a way that feels both intimate and exhilarating. If lucky, you will hear many different animals sounds during the night & an abundence of birdlife during the days. Walking the 2.5km hike to the views seen in the photos takes roughly 60 min round trip. 2x hammocks & a bed swing in the garden are a treat to use. Please note OTHER DETAILS SECTION. Also note very low & long vehicles like BMW M3's or Mercedes CLK's and low long sedans may not enjoy the sand road from the main road to our place but provided you drive slowly most other vehicles will do just fine. Please note there are 3 large dogs on the property that are part of my family and are treated as such. They are very loving and part of the experience when staying by me. Please feel free to see previous guests reviews on my animals if you are afraid of dogs.
