THIS unique holiday accommodation allows you to enjoy a full Flintstones experience. The amazing CAVE lodges are located in the quiet southern Cederberg Mountains, South Africa, far away from the sounds of mobile phones, traffic pollution and bright city lights. Sleeping inside a mini cave, you can embrace your inner-Caveman or Cavewoman, surrounded by rock paintings dating back 6,000 years ago. The nature reserve resort, named Kagga Kamma, offers a selection of ten caves to stay in, and it also gives guests the opportunity to sleep under the stars in a specially designed outside room, named the ‘Outcrop Open Air Room.’
