Positive: We drove into Big Cave Camp on a rainy afternoon and were immediately greeted by zebras along the winding road; an unforgettable first impression. As the road climbed toward the rocky outcrop where the rooms sit, the setting quickly revealed that the stay would be something special. Our room was a quiet oasis; thoughtfully designed to blend into the surrounding granite landscape while offering comfort, privacy, and sweeping views across the Matobo Hills. The attention to detail continued throughout the stay, beginning with the food. Chef Shadreck produced a series of exceptional dishes from a surprise menu each evening, while Thoby’s attentive and welcoming service ensured every meal and moment at camp felt relaxed and effortless. As the days progressed, the rain cleared, and the landscape opened up under brighter skies. We headed out into Matobo National Park with Shepherd, whose knowledge and humour brought the park to life. He guided us confidently through the maze of granite kopjes and wooded valleys, sharing stories from his own experiences as he patiently tracked wildlife. From a respectful distance, we were fortunate enough to see the park’s rhinos; a moment made all the more memorable by Shepherd’s easygoing commentary, as if they had appeared just for us. Back at camp, there was ample time to enjoy the surroundings. The aptly named Big Cave itself provides a remarkable natural viewpoint across the Matopos landscape; a place where one can sit quietly, listen to the wind moving across the rocks, and watch the light change over the hills to the west. The pool, facilities, and amenities throughout the camp are excellent and provide a perfect space to relax between activities. A special mention goes to Warren for his help in settling us in and ensuring both check-in and check-out were smooth and effortless. Combined with the warm hospitality of the entire team, the camp offers an experience that balances comfort, scenery, and genuine Zimbabwean hospitality.
Negative: Nothing much to worry about, just one or two squirrels burrowing their way in and reclaiming the space from time to time, but they would scurry away when spotted. It's part of the charm and we were never in any danger.
