Flatdogs Camp

Flatdogs Camp is located right at the main entrance gate to the South Luangwa National Park. From here they are strategically positioned to be some of the first vehicles to enter the park in the early mornings.

Offering quality accommodation rivalling neighbouring lodges at an affordable rate is something that Flatdogs Camp prides itself in. The camp has accommodation in the form of Safari Tents, Chalets, the Crocodile Nest and the Jackalberry Tree house.

The Safari Tents are spacious enough for full-sized beds, hanging rack for clothes, bedside tables and lamps. A door leads into a shaded open-air bathroom with hot shower, flush toilet and basin. The luxury tents also have mosquito nets and electric fans as well as fully gauzed windows. One of the six river-front tents is our family tent which has a double bed and two single beds, and one large en-suite bathroom, comfortably sleeping four people.

The Chalet rooms are made of stone and are designed to keep you cool. The six regular Chalet rooms are found in three separate buildings: each chalet building has a downstairs double room with en-suite bathroom and an upstairs twin/triple room with their own bathroom, just downstairs from the bedroom. The two rooms in each building are completely separate with their own facilities, but can be joined through the small kitchen area if a family or group of friends want to book both rooms. Both rooms have their own downstairs gauzed-in verandah sitting area.

The Croc’s Nest is a large tented “house” with views onto the Luangwa River which offers exclusive safari accommodation with private guide and vehicle for great value. There are two en-suite bedrooms plus inside and outside living and dining spaces as well as its own private swimming pool. The bathrooms have hot shower, toilet and basin and are semi-open.

The Treehouse has three main decks which are around eight feet off the ground with wooden stairways to reach the spacious sitting area and open-plan bedrooms. Each bedroom has open air en-suite bathroom facilities, with hot shower, WC and basin. One bedroom has a king-sized bed, the other bedroom has either two single beds or these can be converted to a king-sized bed if there are two couples sharing the house. If there are 4 of you, we’ll provide a private safari vehicle and guide for your whole stay. A comfy sofa, easy chairs and floor cushions on the middle deck are ideal for watching the game wandering past the house, happily oblivious to your presence.
