LEADWOOD LODGE

Situated on a wooded bank of the Sand River, Leadwood Lodge’s four suites offer solitude and serenity. Fully sized private plunge pools soothe and refresh in the warmth of the day, while a blazing fireplace in each suite offers a cosy refuge when cool nights creep in. Elevated dining and sitting areas boast dramatic views over the confluence of the Sand and Mabrak Rivers. Multi-levelled viewing areas create intimate corners for a quiet moment of inner reflection.

Private Paradise
The rest of the world instantly slips away as you take ownership of your own private little piece of Africa at Leadwood Lodge. Constructed for maximum privacy, none of the four suites overlook each other, ensuring total serenity and solitude. Simply relax on your private deck or while away the hours absorbed in the peace of the bush. Floor to ceiling glass windows in the front of your suite afford wide views of the animals coming down to drink at the rocky watering hole. The colours and textures of the bush follow you indoors and even the indoor shower is encased in glass.

At Leadwood Lodge, it is our passion to share our knowledge and understanding of the bush and its inhabitants with our guests. Our highly trained rangers and trackers will do their utmost to delight our guests with a choice of the following adventures:

Twice daily game drives - early morning and late afternoon / evening game drives in an open 4x4 safari vehicle traverse an area of 10 000 hectares (25 000 acres). Track the Big Five, as well as a rich variety of other game, in the company of an armed ranger and Shangaan tracker. Strict vehicle limits at animal sightings ensure the exclusivity of your wildlife experience and careful off-road driving positions you for the best photo opportunities. Rangers are constantly in touch with each other to help keep track of game and the sensitive approach methods used mean that the wildlife has become accustomed to the presence of vehicles.

Interpretive bush walks - in between game drives, take a leisurely walk within easy reach of your lodge and experience the sights, smells and sounds of the African bush. An armed ranger will accompany you and will share his vast knowledge of the local fauna and flora. Take in the intimate details of your surroundings, from the intricate patterns of a spider's web to the bright plumage of the local birds and the sharp alarms calls of a dozen small creatures.
