De Graaff Grassland Bushman Lodge (Central Kalahari, Botswana) is a little world of wonders… As our name suggests, our main activity is based on our cultural activities with our local San people. Guests get the opportunity to meet our local San people and to spend some time with them. This is truly an amazing experience and likewise, this gives the San people a feeling of appreciation as their culture is on the verge of extinction. A wide variety of Kalahari animals and bird species can also be seen on 4WD game drives or on horseback, or guests can simply gaze out at the numerous species attracted to our own floodlit waterhole, a mere 50 yards away in front of the lodge.
At Grassland, you will be amazed by the comfortable chalets, dining facilities, and hospitable staff. Grassland has eight extremely well furnished chalets, each with their own en-suite bathrooms, beds, closets, safe and dressing table.Each facility has constant hot water and your laundry is done daily at no extra cost. We can accommodate up to 16 guests and have a family suite as well.

We have two beautiful thatched main buildings that contain both an outdoor and indoor dining room. Our meals, prepared by our Chef, who has been with De Graaff Grassland Bushman Lodge for eleven years, are extraordinary and well prepared. We provide 3 meals a day, mid-day tea with home baked cake, cold drinks, excellent wines, and a fully stocked bar for sun downers and evening nightcaps.
