Thornybush is delighted to unveil the refreshed Little Saseka, a standalone private
safari villa that seamlessly blends quiet luxury with the beauty of the African bush.
Thoughtfully reimagined for families, couples, and small groups, this exclusive-use
villa now offers a more refined and flexible space designed for meaningful
connection and complete privacy.

Perched on the edge of a seasonal riverbed and surrounded by unsurpassed
bushveld views, Little Saseka has undergone a soft refurbishment, enhancing its
reputation as a stylish, secluded escape for honeymooners and families alike.

Whether you’re planning a romantic retreat or a relaxed family safari, Little
Saseka offers a fully private, tented villa experience — with all the comfort and
style of a modern home in the wild.

The living areas have been expanded and reimagined to enhance both communal
experiences and individual retreat. Notable additions include a raised deck, a
striking stone-clad entrance, a feature fireplace, and a stylish kitchen, perfect for
enjoying time together between game drives.

Designer Caline Williams-Wyn from Artichoke has drawn inspiration from the
serene palette of nearby Saseka Tented Camp, with rich, earthy greens that echo
the natural surroundings. One standout feature is the custom-designed botanical
tiles adorning the fireplace, a beautiful tribute to the region’s indigenous flora.
The furnishings are soft, sculptural, and organic in form, all part of the clean,
contemporary aesthetic that defines Saseka’s unique identity.

At the heart of the villa, the newly elevated pool acts as a dramatic welcome
positioned to maximise the connection with the surrounding wilderness.

Little Saseka offers complete privacy and total flexibility Unlike the more
classic Kamara House, Little Saseka offers a more modern take on bushveld living,
operating entirely independently from the main camp. Guests enjoy the services
of a private chef and dedicated hospitality team, with every detail tailored to their
needs.

Little Saseka guarantees true exclusivity and uninterrupted tranquillity. For
slightly larger groups or multi-generational families, two extra tented suites can
be added, creating a spacious and flexible base for unforgettable safaris.

From morning game drives to lazy afternoons by the pool, Little Saseka offers a
rare combination of privacy, luxury and time to immerse oneself in the
wilderness. It's a sanctuary of modern design meets and where families, friends,
and couples can reconnect in an extraordinary setting.

Watch this space – Saseka Tented Camp will close temporarily from 28 January to
13 April 2026 for a series of exciting upgrades which will include a new dining
room and boma area, new decking and an additional tented suite at Little Saseka,
expanding its capacity to accommodate up to 6 guests and offering even more
space for exclusive-use bookings
