Spread evenly, in a long line along the N'waswitsontso River, are secluded family cottages. Part of Talamati is also a private facility, only allowing residents access to the camp. Talamati Bushveld Camp is within close proximity to a larger rest camp, with guests being allowed the use of the larger camp's amenities and shops. The Xitsonga word Talamati translates as 'lots of water, ironic when considering the river is actually mostly dry. The clay soil in the riverbed traps reservoirs of underground water, and tributaries flowing into the lush vegetation. The camp itself is located in an open valley, maximising game viewing opportunities for both grazers and their ever-present predators.
