Beautiful property and amazing staff - such a lovely experience showing off our country that made me very proud as a South African

We stayed three nights at the country house and loved every minute of it. The house itself with its friendly staff, cozy rooms and 3-course-dinner was already unique. The stay included two Game drives per day and each was an adventure of its own! Thanks to our rangers Marlie and Hain we not only got to see many animals - we learned about their behavior such as the plants, history and culture of Amakhla. Huge recommendation!

Little to fault at this lodge. Possibly need to keep up the maintenance.

The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. The food was very tasty and well presented. The game drives informative and varied. The ranger Ouboet was very knowledgable.

The weather!

Food was amazing, staff were wonderful - they couldn't have done enough for us. Location was perfect as just off the N2 and not far from Port Elizabeth to catch our flight. Our safari guide Mel was outstanding - very passionate about the animals and their habitat and extremely knowledgeable.

Stayed in January 2024

Some minor maintenance issues but given the VERY reasonable cost and the other excellence of everything else, not a big deal.

The game drives were EXCELLENT! Our guide Mali was superb. We saw Lions, Rhinos, Hippos, Giraffes, and Elephants. Not to mention a few other denizens of the African plains. Food was great. Staff super friendly.

always the same playlist at dining room Suite was directly next to the coffee station - very loud! Facility needs a bit of a renovation/update

Super friendly staff! Room got tidied up multiple times a day. Safari was amazing and so was our guide Mali.

Nothing to complain!

Big country-style room, but has everything you need. Shower. Bath tub. Bed with heating. Inside and outside seating. Wardrobe. Very friendly staff. Food was amazing. But best of all, the game drives! Lots of animals to see. Huge space. Our ranger - Mali - was very knowledgeable and allowed for extra time to spend with the various animals - elephants, cheetah, giraffes, lions, rhinos and lots of different antelopes.

Period year of furniture provided an intriguing atmosphere, however, infrastructure like e.g. bathrooms fixtures, WiFi were not updated.

Meals were outstanding; location was great; good example of a traditional country ranch house, grounds were spacious in a fine natural setting. The staff was courteous, pleasant and highly efficient. Learning about the history of Leeuwenbosch and Amakhala was very fascinating. They provided phantastic safaris.

There was not a food choice at dinner which didn't bother us at all, also staff were very happy to accommodate requests

A very authentic lodge with history. We went on 2 x 3 hour safari's each day and each time saw different animals. During our 3 night stay we saw 4 of the Big 5 plus many other animals expertly pointed out by our ranger, Marley. Lodge staff, especially Penny, were exceptional, constantly going the extra mile for the guests. Food was excellent quality and plentiful. You really won't go hungry here! Rooms are traditional , spacious and clean. Some of the fixtures , like the showers are older as you would expect in a property of this age. All in all, a great place to stay and experience the animal kingdom in the Amakhala reserve. Thank you to all the staff for an excellent time.😁

Staying at Leeuwenbosch Country House was definitely a highlight of our South Africa Roadtrip. The house is very clean and it’s furniture and especially the people make it very homey. We felt comfortable and welcomed right away. Everything is catered for and the food was really good. But the highlight were definitely the game drives. We only stayed for one full day but saw 4 out of the big 5. It was a very special experience!
