Feline Fields Lodge
The Kalahari Desert in Botswana is an ancient and extraordinary wilderness, a land of extremes where life has adapted to thrive. Its seasonal, arid landscape is harsh yet consistent, creating a sanctuary for desert-adapted wildlife and carrying a rich cultural legacy of the San Bushmen, who have called this place home for centuries. Feline Fields Lodge holds a special place in this vast habitat—an oasis of conservation and tranquillity. Surrounded by the Kalahari's striking beauty, this lodge offers an experience that's as breathtaking as it is meaningful.
Located in the northern reaches of the Kalahari, east of the Okavango Delta towards Namibia's border, Feline Fields is a sanctuary in an arid wilderness. Completely off-grid, it is powered by cutting-edge solar technology for a sustainable stay, and it supports conservation through meaningful community and wildlife initiatives under the Feline Fields Trust. The lodge is a retreat for the senses, offering an array of unique activities. Horseback safaris, desert biking, and game drives let you experience the surrounding region and wildlife up close, while cultural interactions with the local San villages provide authentic insights into an ancient way of life.
The lodge's room selection makes it perfect for honeymooners, couples or families, and a stay here combines seamlessly with a broader Botswana safari circuit. Whether it's the ambient lantern-lit meal times, the starry night skies, the way the Kalahari deepens your connection to the wild and those you experience it with, or the chance to hear lions calling in the quiet desert night, Feline Fields delivers a soulful, once-in-a-lifetime experience in one of Africa's most enchanting landscapes.

The light and airy Bush Suites are one of the three accommodation options at Feline Fields. Elevated over a metre above the ground, the suites offer sweeping views of the surrounding wilderness. Inside, you’ll find twin beds that can be converted into a super-king bed and an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in massage shower.
The suite’s design allows the sides to open, replacing canvas walls with a fine gauze that lets you feel truly surrounded by nature. Step onto your private deck to take in the scenery or indulge in a long soak in the outdoor ‘star bath’—the perfect way to relax as you stare up at a sky full of stars.
Upgrade your stay with a Pool Suite, a spacious two-story retreat that feels like your very own home in the heart of the wilderness. Built on a raised platform, the suite features a private swimming pool with loungers—perfect for cooling off during the day. On the ground floor, the king-sized bed, draped with mosquito nets, ensures a restful night’s sleep. The temperature is naturally regulated by a ceiling fan and the cool desert breeze that flows through the gauze windows at night.
The suite also includes a spacious lounge area with a daybed that can accommodate a child. A mini fridge stocked with cold drinks is conveniently on hand, whether you’re relaxing poolside or heading upstairs to the upper-level relaxation area. During the day, the upstairs lounge is perfect for unwinding, while at night, it can be transformed into a star bed—offering a sleepout experience right at your suite.
The two-bedroom Family Villa is a perfect retreat for families or even friends travelling together. Both bedrooms are en-suite with king-sized beds which can be converted to twin beds or even triple, offering flexibility for different group arrangements.
A spacious lounge opens onto a private deck that spans the width of the villa, complete with a large swimming pool, cosy loungers, and an outdoor dining table—ideal for relaxing days and shared meals under the African sun.
For such a remote location, Feline Fields offers an impressive array of facilities—thanks in part to Botswana's exceptional and unobtrusive safari infrastructure. State-of-the-art solar technology keeps the lodge entirely off-grid while remaining fully and sustainably powered. The expansive lounge area is as inviting as it is beautiful, with soft seating that practically begs you to sink in with a book from the library. The well-stocked bar ensures that an ice-cold beverage is always within easy reach.
For those who like to stay active, the fitness centre is nothing short of impressive. A 25m lap pool, lined with plush sun loungers shaded by umbrellas, provides the perfect spot to unwind while keeping an eye out for passing wildlife. Explore the desert on one of the 'fat bikes'—ingeniously designed to glide over the sandy terrain or saddle up for a horseback ride across the vast, untamed plains of the Kalahari. And if you’re wondering what pairs perfectly with an ice-cold gin and tonic, the answer might surprise you: a friendly game of tennis on the lodge's court or a swing session at the mini driving range. When it's time to relax again, indulge in a rejuvenating spa treatment in the wellness area.
As the sun sets, the desert air cools, but the ambiance warms. Enjoy a pre-dinner aperitif by the fire before indulging in a sumptuous meal under the stars. For the ultimate night in the wilderness, consider a magical sleepout on the open plains, where you can drift off beneath the dazzling brilliance of the Milky Way.
