Pets

• Regretfully, pets are no longer allowed at Awanmulan
• Awanmulan was named after a dearest pet and we have for over 10 years tried to keep it open for pets and their humans
• However, we have found it difficult to manage this as compliance to our policy with regards to pets have been poor and makes it difficult for us to safeguard the needs of our other guests
• This decision was not taken lightly and we do realise the disappointment it will create among some of our guests, to whom we emphatize and apologise.
• Pets are only allowed for day visitors and at the Khemah campsite.

Resident Animals

• Awanmulan is named after a dog (Mulan) and there are two dogs (Daniel and Baloo) and two cats (Cantik and Michelle) and a grumpy old fish (Moses) who live here with us
• They roam freely in our compound, except Moses (because that would be really creepy)
• Though they may be initially surprised by strangers, they are friendly and loving
• Guests are advised that they will be here with these animals and not to be afraid of them or run from them
• We will not tie up or cage our animals for you. They live here, and you are choosing voluntarily to come visit us and them.
• Never run from a dog! They will chase you because they think it is a game
• Please do not feed our animals as they get plenty of food. Feeding them creates bad habits

Activities

• We do not organise team building activities
• Most people lounge around and relax, play board games or go swimming.
• A list of trekking available nearby can be found on our Excursions page
• If you do not wish a trek, you can just walk to the nearby river for a swim.
• View the map on the excursions page for a location of the river relative to Awanmulan

• Sometimes we get hornets and bees but not in large swarms.
• We also see some snakes and scorpions on occassion but while they can bite or sting you also none that are dangerous and also no one has had an issue with them before.
• There are sometimes some harmless noisy geckos (tokay) and wild boar and tapir have walked through our land, but no monkeys.
• We are on a hillside land and there are lots of trees. There is some risk of falling if you are not careful and wander off the pedestrian walkways so visiors are advised to walk and not run.
• Some small tree branches may fall during windy days but no large branches have fallen before that would be cause for worry.
