Experiencing wildlife in luxurious fashion

A lot of luxurious venues can be a bit ‘cut and paste.’ That’s why it’s fantastic to try out something different for a change – it mixes things up a little. If you’ve ever wanted to get the safari experience with all the home comforts of rural England, then you’re in for a treat with Aspinall’s Livingstone Cottage.

With two double bedrooms and two twin rooms, it’s not really ‘a getaway for two,’ so you can bring all your friends. There are en-suite bathrooms, a garden, a personal chef and complementary bubbly. You get your own Personal Ranger, who will show you around the park.

After your safari, you can then relax in your snug and enjoy a cocktail or two while a five course meal is prepared for you (other cottages in Kent can’t beat this!). This will all be complemented with African wines, beers, and ciders. The personal chef is happy to have a chat while he or she works about how the food is being prepared and tips for cooking at home! If you visit during winter, you can warm up by the log burning stove.

Fall asleep with a full stomach (and as much booze as you can manage), before waking up at 8am for a full English Breakfast at 9am. You’ll get the option of another safari back to reception and then you can spend your day in any way you want: explore the wild animal park, see what’s to offer around the local area, or even visit their sister park, Howletts, for free! It’s just half an hour’s drive away.
