Canvas is the backbone of bush accommodation: tented guest rooms, main areas and staff tents that sit lightly on the land and bring guests close to the wildlife around them.

Our partners developed and run their own lodges, so we know what a tented camp needs to handle: summer storms, heat, dust, animals and long distances to any supplier. We plan each tent with its base, roof cover, ablutions and power together.

Many tented camps are in concessions where permanent structures are not allowed. Canvas on raised decks meets these conditions while still giving guests a comfortable, spacious room. The structures are erected with minimal disturbance to the site and can be taken down, leaving little trace on the land.
