Accommodation for children

Kids can be accommodated in some rooms on fold-out or rollaway beds. In some cases charges and restrictions may apply. At Rock Lodge the best rooms for children are Cliff Lodge 1, which has a separate room just off the lounge with two twin beds, and Rock Suite, whose two-bedroom configuration is ideal for families. Rollaway beds can also be accommodated in our two Makwela Suites as well as in Cliff Lodge 2.

Activities

We can tailor games and activities depending on the number and age ranges of the children staying. Here are some of the activities your 'cub' might get up to...

• A welcome treasure hunt to help Cubs familiarise themselves with their surroundings.
• Your Cubs will explore their Arts and Crafts ability with coloured sand art and an afternoon of rock painting.
• A great range of new and classic children's DVDs, CDs and a Nintendo Wii to keep your Cubs busy
• Cubs are able to enjoy the swimming pool with an experienced swimmer to supervise afternoon pool activities and enjoy ice-cream to re-energise
• A wide variety of educational board games, puzzles and ‘Big 5’ playing cards, all with a safari theme
• Traditional South African kids’ games which they can teach their friends when they get home
• A mini Ranger’s course where your Cub’s Ranger will teach them about the African bush and how to track and identify animal footprints and dung droppings
• All Cubs will be invited to join the Pen Pal Club
• Safari walks around Rock Lodge to spot birds, insects, lizards and anything else your Cub may find
