This is no
doubt a
luxurious oasis
in the wilds of
Meru National
Park, Elsa's
Kopje, named
after Elsa the
lioness raised
by conservation
icons George and
Joy Adamson and
made famous in
the film 'Born
Free' She was
released into
the wild here at
the Meru
National Park.
The word Kopje
means 'small
hill'. Elsa's
Kopje lodge
blends into the
hillside of
Mughwango Hill,
site of George
Adamson's
original camp.
Meru is vast
with arid, open
plains dotted
with Doum Palms
and Baobab trees
and lush
vegetation along
13 rivers, like
green ribbons,
bisecting the
Park. The lodge
is invisible to
the eye as you
approach the
kopje.
This lodge
offers 10
luxurious
cottages. The
cottages are the
ultimate rooms
with a view,
uniquely
designed and
crafted,
incorporating
the natural
features of the
rocky hillside.
Each cottage has
spacious double
or twin beds
with en-suite,
elegantly
appointed
bathrooms. There
is an open bar,
lounge and
dining room with
an exceptionally
inviting
infinity pool
overlooking the
Meru plains.
Elsa’s Private
House is set
slightly apart
from the main
lodge. It has 1
double room and
1 twin, both
with en-suite
bathrooms. There
is a living and
dining area,
leading
seamlessly
outdoors into
its own private
swimming pool.
Elsa’s Honeymoon
Suite is a 3
level room, with
a double bed and
en-suite
bathroom. With
its breathtaking
views, this
latest addition
is most
definitely Elsas
'pride'!
At Elsa’s Kopje,
you can
experience day
and night game
drives with
highly trained
drivers, bush
walks with
guides and
rangers, or cool
yourself and
take a dip in
the swimming
pool that has a
view that looks
out onto the
plains, or spoil
yourself to a
massage.
Each cottage is
provided with a
private butler
who will be at
your service at
all times.
