I would like to know our fellow hunters thoughts on the type of hunting accommodation preferred when hunting Africa.
Over the years I have hosted clients who enjoy both the luxury and basic types of accommodation, but it seems that there are many out there who enjoy the basic bush accommodation along with the African ambiance created by it. My most memorable hunts have been with clients (who have become friends) staying in the most basic of accommodation. The best part is talking around the fire about the days successes or failures under an african sky, with the hiss of the gas lamp in the background or the smell of the ever present paraffin lamp.
5 star accommodation has its place and there are many who enjoy it, but I don't think anything can beat that basic bush experience (getting back to our roots so to speak).
