Leeuwenbosch

The Amakhala Game Reserve began in 1999 as a joint conservation venture and today has 5 independently owned lodges. All are owner managed by the descendants of the original families who arrived here with the British settlers of 1820.

Steeped in history and beauty, this 7,200 hectare game reserve is an ideal environment for an unforgettable Big 5 safari, including breathtaking views of the Bushmans River.

Built in 1908 and set in its own lovely garden on the edge of the reserve, Leeuwenbosch Country House is a large and comfortable colonial homestead, which offers country living in every sense.

The reserve is divided by the N2 main highway,and the smaller section is home to the lions, who roam freely and enjoy a natural hunting habitat. Guests can go on morning and evening game drives in an open Land Rover in search of wildlife including not only lion, but rhino, elephant, cheetah, buffalo, giraffe, black wildebeest, zebra, and over 16 antelope species.

After dark, the elusive nocturnal animals are searched out with the help of a spotlight as you drive through the reserve.

Individual in their style, Leeuwenbosch consists of 9 guest rooms, spread across the 1908 colonial Country House which is set amidst beautiful indigenous gardens, and Shearer's Lodge, which has been beautifully converted.

At the end of an exciting day of game viewing on the reserve, guests can enjoy a relaxed and cheerful evening in the old 1832 cellar-bar or enjoy a quiet game of billiards on the full size antique table.

Amakhala Game Reserve also now offers a range of relaxing treatments by qualified beauty therapists, trained to pamper and soothe their clients - on request, guests can be taken over to the nearby Bush Lodge to enjoy their treatment.
