Major's Lodge, Watlington, Norfolk
If you are looking for something unique and rather special, then book a stay in Major's Lodge, a safari lodge overlooking the lakes and plains of the Watatunga Wildlife Reserve. With stunning vistas over the grazing herds of exotic deer and antelope species and with exclusive use of an electric self-drive buggy to explore the reserve, this hideaway is a truly unique staycation destination.
This single storey, fully-accessible detached lodge sleeps eight guests and is positioned with uninterrupted views over the wildlife that roam in the 170 acre reserve. The property has four bedrooms complete with two bathrooms as well as a wet room. Spot a mountain bongo grazing just metres away from the private terrace or sitting room window; or make use of our state-of-the-art bird hide for sundowners overlooking the main lake.
With access to electric buggies, you can take your time and enjoy the ever changing expanses of the woodland, savannah and lakes. On arrival you'll be offered a free guided tour of the reserve where you can learn all about the conservation work whilst seeing the water buffalo, white stork and great bustard, and after this access to the reserve is free within pre-agreed hours. Major's Lodge is well located to explore everything north west and north Norfolk offers, but if you want a very special treat, book an alfresco dinner by the Watatunga lakeside in the private barbecue hut by the lake - details available on request.
Safety is paramount whilst spending time on the reserve. Before being handed the keys to your electric buggies, you will receive a thorough safety briefing and guided tour of the reserve. The owners request that upon arrival and before visiting the reserve you read and sign the terms of your waiver. Once signed you are welcome to explore the reserve as you wish within the hours discussed and with your guide.
Additional Information: Sorry, no pets. Bedding is synthetic and feather. Travel cot available on request. Please bring your own linen. For guests requiring a profiling bed, Major's Lodge can accommodate one. It is recommended to use the company Shelden Healthcare.
