The towering Drakensberg mountain range offers a majestic, panoramic view, which will leave you breathless....

Whether you are looking for a safari destination; a base to explore all the wonders of the Lowveld, a romantic break away with your loved one, a family vacation or even if you just want to pop in for lunch, spa treatment or game drive � we really do offer it all. We are also an ideal wedding venue having historically hosted many happy couples who have said their vows at Khaya Ndlovu.

Kick off your shoes, put your feet up and let us do the rest.

What to expect at the lodge/reserve

Accommodation

To spoil that special person in your life, choose the Leadwood Honeymoon Suite. This luxury room will treat you to a spacious en-suite bathroom and outside shower to enhance your romantic memories.

The Acacia Family rooms share an adjoining bathroom making it ideal for families with smaller children, while our Jackelberry and Marula rooms offer comfortable and convenient luxury with en suite bathrooms and pristine views over the manicured gardens.

The Garden Suites are situated under a canopy of beautiful indigenous trees and all offer views over the surrounding gardens, with all modern amenities such as air-conditioning, tea and coffee station and en suite bathroom with shower only.

Outside area

Even while indoors, one is constantly reminded of and greeted by magnificent natural scenes be it either the well-established colonial style gardens or the Northern reaches of the Drakensberg Mountain range. The promise of relief from the Lowveld heat and humidity is materialised in the cool depths of the infinity swimming pool overlooking an often frequented game dam amidst a setting of indigenous trees and shrubbery. A sundowner has never tasted quite as good as it does on the pool deck overlooking the Lowveld scene below.

Cuisine

Food for the body and a view for the soul�

Overlooking the magnificent Klein Drakensberg mountains is our alfresco dining area, serviced daily from the farm-style kitchen where chef Garth, ably assisted by sous chef, Princess create a myriad of dishes for your enjoyment.
Most of our kitchen produce is sourced locally including our very own free-range eggs, a rather ambitious project considering our location, that was started by Trevor and Lisa. The eggs are collected multiple times during the day from a highly secured and electrified chicken run, much to the frustration of the resident monkeys, mongooses, genets, pythons, and all the other egg-seeking bushveld missiles!

Much of our fresh produce is also sourced from the local Hlokomela vegetable and herb gardens, which is a community-based project aimed at empowering the local communities.

Our dining area comfortably seats up to 50 guests in a COVID compliant, fresh-air environment and all dietary requirements can be accommodated. Pre-bookings are essential for day guests.
