Buffalo Thorn Lodge
Overview & Capacity
Buffalo Thorn is a five-chalet, ten-sleeper lodge in the Black Rhino Reserve that only ever hosts one group at a time. There's no conference room and no banqueting department - which is exactly the point. B&W brings the chef, the agenda and the ambience; the lodge brings elephants at the waterhole. For a small exco that wants to disappear for three days, this is the honest option.
