We happened to be the only guests for 2 nights just a few days before peak season was supposed to begin. Our expectations were absolutely met, lovely game drives with plenty of useful information about the wildlife. The food was tasty and nicely prepared.

We stayed at Leeuwenbosch for a week and had an outstanding experience. The staff were friendly and helpful and the personal touch from Bill and Rosemary added to the atmosphere (especially in the cellar bar!). The food superb, well presented and plentiful. Our accommodation in Shearer's Lodge was very comfortable, always clean and the attention to detail was amazing. The... More

We have experienced a memorable 2 nights - it exceeded our expectations in every way. Bill and Rose were great hosts and the stories in Bills Bar were not to be missed.

Steeped in pioneering history we felt like we had stepped back in time sleeping in the family homestead which is beautifully modernised to make a luxurious stay. Dining in the original dining room with a plethora of staff and exquisite cuisine made it difficult to... More

Our game ranger Luke was extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the reserve - from birds, flora and fauna, and of course, the animals. He went to a huge amount of effort to... More
