Leadwood Tree Safari Lodge

Peaceful and relaxing.

We had an amazing experience at the lodge. The host is such a lovely and warm person. She was quick to assist with questions and recommendations, as it was our first time in this area. We will definitely be back soon; we wish we could have stayed longer.

Gemaklik, gerieflik, lieflik!

Van dit intrapslag word jy verwelkom met die mooiste glimlag en gasvryheid deur die gasheer. Ek het gereis vir werk en die gasheer het uit haar pad gegaan om my welkom te laat voel en alles vir my gemaklik te maak. Ek sal vir seker met 'n volgende besoek aan Hoespruit weer daar aanklop! Alles was perfek!

Wonderful under the circumstances.

It was a wonderful stay. Had no electricity due to cables being stolen, and our emergency light did not work, but it was clean and very relaxing. The host kept us posted on the electricity.

It was perfect and just what we needed.

Our stay was brief but it was perfect for our colleagues to stay for the night. Hosts were most helpful when we needed them to be.

Amazing place.

Vreeslik lekker!

Ontspanne. Gerieflik. Baie netjies. Stunning.

Het ons 'n awesome lodge gegee om in te bly. Waardeer haar baie.

Rustig en lekker.

Baie lekker gebly en rustig.

Comfortable and clean.

Neat and clean unit, and a very kind and caring host.

Not restful or peaceful at all, due to noisy guests.

So I wouldn't stay again, but no fault of the owner. The rooms are not designed too well, so if you have noisy neighbours like we did, who left the TV on until 12:30 in the morning and then put it on again at 04:30 in the morning, it is not a restful night's sleep at all. The wall you sleep against has their TV and they are thin, so you hear the TV and their whole conversation. This was in lodge 3, which shared with lodge 2.

Peaceful.

Peaceful, river views.

Netjiese blyplek in die bos.

Ek het as alleenreisiger in eenheid 3 gebly, vir my doeleindes, naamlik 'n oornagplek was dit perfek. Alles was netjies en skoon en die diens was goed. Volgende keer sal ek dalk no 4 kies, dit meer privaat met 'n mooi uitsig op die rivierloop.

Heerlik.

Bly altyd heerlik hier in Hoedspruit.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Ek sou net 'n gemakliker duvet aanbeveel.

Dit is nou die derde keer wat ons by Leadwood Tree Safari Lodge bly. Die eenhede is goed toegerus. Die hoogtepunt vir ons is die groot braaier en die swembad is die kersie op die koek.

Rustig, stil, lekker.

Baie lekker plekkie, sal weer daar bly.

Gerieflik.

Baie lekker gebly, presies genoeg vir 'n besigheidsuitstappie.

Super!

Great little spot and perfect for a stopover. The wildlife estate is awesome!

Rus en vrede.

Rus en vrede! En oulike gasvrou.

Bosveld en mooi berge.

Baie mooi omgewing. Vriendelike eienaars en gasvrou.

Great time.

Had a great stay. Host was very accommodating. Very neat and tidy, all that you need.

Perfect.

Great location, quite nice private environment.

Peaceful stay close enough to the main centre and tourist attractions.

Very peaceful location with a very comfy bed and lovely swimming pool. Small, simple but comfortable spot. The place needs some maintenance. Lots of cracks in the walls, loose fittings in the kitchen, etc. The kitchen is not really great for self-catering (very small) but suitable for light lunches and breakfasts, and there are loads of lovely restaurants close by, so this is great for a base to tour Hoedspruit from. Aircon would be most welcome as the fans struggled to help with the heat and humidity. The host was very friendly and responded quickly to messages. Beautiful views and loads of birds and wildlife in the area. We very much enjoyed the braai area and outdoor seating, looking out at the dry riverbank.

Goeie waarde vir geld.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Die WiFi was baie welkom - ek dink net 'n wagwoord/password om dit meer sekuur te maak sal goed wees. Die kliëntediens was puik en vriendelik. Die aanbevelings vir restaurante was baie waardeer. Net 'n paar netheid klein goedjies waaraan aandag gegee kan word. Die handdoeke het nie vars geruik nie. Van die kussings op die banke/stoele was vuil. Maar buiten die klein goedjies het ons baie lekker gebly.

Die swembad is perfek geleë waar jy kan uitkyk op die wild.

Ons het die rustigheid van die omgewing vreeslik geniet. Ons sal beslis weer so maak.

Clean, quiet with stunning views.

The pool was refreshing with the hot weather. We really enjoyed our stay.

Wonderfully quiet stay in the bush.

It's a lovely overnight stay near Hoedspruit. We could have stayed longer.

Superb hosting by Tammy from beginning to end! Thanks Tammy!

Tammy provided us with all the detailed information we needed right from our original enquiry. She even allowed my husband to watch rugby in another empty unit as ours was not booked with a TV. The peace and quiet was absolute bliss! Thanks Tammy!

Baie lekker.

Baie aangename gasvrou.

Lovely comfortable stay in the Wildlife Estate.

Spacious unit with a fully equipped kitchenette. Hot water was difficult to regulate with the gas geyser, but we managed. The estate was safe to walk around, our boys enjoyed identifying tracks and it was very peaceful, no sight of neighbours. Tammy was very helpful.

Een van die lekkerste plekke wat ek nog by geslaap het sal weer gaan kuier.

Plekkie is mooi skoon en in 'n rustige atmosfeer met die bokkies wat ook kom draai maak het, baie mooi.

2nd stay at Leadwood Lodge - the perfect stop-over place in Hoedspruit.

Leadwood Lodge is the perfect place for a stop-over and for longer stays - it is in a wildlife estate where you can do self-drive game viewing (we saw giraffes, zebra, waterbuck, warthog, impala, squirrels, meerkats and lots of birds). The accommodation is comfortable, clean and private with good self-catering facilities and perfect braai spots. If you're a couple stopping over in Hoedspruit or looking for a quiet bush spot for a few days, this place is perfect.

Comfortable, clean and cozy.

Had a wonderfull stay.

Such a beautiful and quiet gem.

This place is absolutely beautiful, from the unit itself to the reserve it resides within to the pool area. All are beautiful and I will definitely come back again. The hosts were great and the entire lodge was kept in immaculate condition which was safe and clean. Loved it, thanks very much.

Puik verblyf! Mooi skoon netjies en goeie kliëntediens!

Sien sterre.

Aangename verblyf in Wildspark.

Heerlike verblyf. Die gastehuis is ruim en goed toegerus met alles wat mens nodig het. Die stoep/ patio / braai bied 'n geleentheid om tyd in die buitelug te spandeer (veilig omhein).

Awesome.

Ons het baie lekker gekuier, dit was lekker rustig en stil.

Beautiful and quiet with a stunning view.

Very nice and tranquil and very well equipped. I had a great evening there and did not even hear the other guests. Overall, clean. However, the cleaning team can use a little guidance on cleaning under the main bed and between the wall and the bunk beds. It has not been cleaned there for some time, but other than that I could not find any fault. Adding a mosquito net to the main bed is so practical and awesome. Thank you very much. I would love to stay there again.

Very pleasant stay.

Very nice house. Everything we needed was available. The owner was very friendly. Really enjoyed our stay.

Lieflike natuur!

Weggesteek in die lieflike natuur, so naby aan die dorp.

For a rustic experience.

Leadwood Tree Safari Lodge. What an experience. Coming from working at a 7 star lodge in the Tinbavati area, situated on a dry riverbank, to a 1 star also situated on a dry river bank, may have been a shock to some but we loved it. Simple but clean, neat and tidy. Everything you need for a total realistic, experience of the bush. We heard hyenas and had a few small antelope and birds visiting our chalet early morning. We certainly will go back for a braai at the braai area outside soon.

Pragtige omgewing en eenhede!

Ons het baie lekker by Leadwood Lodge gebly vir een aand. Die eienares was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Sal beslis weer besoek!

Heerlik in die bos, mooi uitkyk vanaf swembad oor diere se drinkgat.

Hulle gaan opgradeer en verkoelers insit, dan is ek gou weer daar.

A lovely spot in the bush.

Unit 2 at Leadwood Tree Safari Lodge is ideally situated over looking an occasional river in the Hoedspruit Wild Life Estate. It has everything needed for a memorable break in the bush. The only shortcomings in the unit are the lack of airconditioning for the hottest summer days, and the accommodation for a third person is not at all great (a single bed against a windowless wall in the lounge - the third guest must also share the only bathroom which is inadequately separated from the bedroom by a wall that does not reach the ceiling and a concertina door that does not provide enough privacy). The unit is ideal for a couple, I would not use it with a third person again.

Excellent.

Was excellent and very comfortable.

Dry, peaceful and the owner was welcoming and kind. She went extra mile for us.

Very welcoming and relaxing.

Stille vrede in die Bosveld.

Tammy is 'n uitstekende gasvrou en het uit haar pad uitgegaan om ons verblyf so gemaklik as moontlik te maak. Die huisie is pragtig en heerlik in die bos. Die skadunet-venster in die badkamer was so 'n bietjie koud in die winter, maar vir die baie warm somers sal dit fantasties wees. Die sekuriteit is baie goed. Die swembad was nie beskikbaar nie as gevolg van onderhoud wat gedoen moes word, maar omdat dit winter is, was dit nie 'n probleem nie.

Rustig!

Baie rustig en stil. Geen geraas behalwe die natuur nie. Het al vantevore in ander lodges in Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate tuisgegaan en mens kan die pad en die trein heeltyd hoor. Maar nie by Leadwood nie. Die ligging was perfek en die lodge skoon. En swembadarea 'n heerlike lafenis. Baie mooi. Dankie Tammy, sal beslis gereeld by julle pragtige plek tuisgaan.

Plek is netjies en skoon en toegerus met wat nodig is om oor te bly.

Ons het lekker gebly. Oulike plekkie, alles netjies en skoon.

Enjoyable, relaxing.

I had a great stay at Leadwood Tree Safari Lodge. There was no hot water in the outdoor and indoor shower, luckily it was a hot day. Basic information on how to use the microwave would be great for future guests.

Stil in die bos. Skoon en basies.

Daar was ongelukkig geen warm water nie!

Fantasties, romanties en lekker.

Die hele naweek was fantasties. Tamboti lodge 4 was amazing gewees. Die bed slaap lekker, die shower is lekker en ek is mal oor die uitleg van die hele badkamer. Die scenery is baie mooi en dan dis lekker om rond te gaan ry in die estate self, het baie diere gesien. Hierdie is beslis my gunsteling wegbreek vakansie in 'n baie lang tyd. Ek sal beslis weer terug kom.

Incredible how close one gets to the surrounding wildlife.

A relaxing and peaceful one-day stay.

Perfect, perfect, perfect.

The place is just too beautiful. I enjoyed every moment of my stay.

Dit was die tweede keer wat ons by Leadwood gebly het, dit is ons voorkeur-oornagbestemming in Hoedspruit. 10/10 vir Tammy en haar span.

Ek sal Leadwood toe oë aanbeveel, dit is gerieflik geleë in die wildlife estate en altyd 'n plesier om daar te oornag. Geriewe is skoon en netjies.

Het die naweek weg baie geniet.

Kon die naweek goed uitrus. Geniet die privaatheid en rustigheid wat Leadwood bied. Het rus en vrede in die bos geniet met die pragtige diere geluide in die agtergrond.

Baie lekker lodge.

Die lodge is lekker privaat geleë en goed toegerus met alles wat nodig is. Ons het baie lekker gebly en Tammy was 'n uitstekende gasvrou.

Tammy's communication with me was clear and on time.

My unit was spotless. I loved the tranquil setting and privacy. I will recommend this if you are looking for accommodation in the Hoedspruit area.

In die bosveld, salig en rustig.

Pragtige huisie omring deur groot bome en diere. Die huisie was perfek vir ons paar dae in die bosveld. Alles was net perfek gewees. Tammy is 'n baie goeie gasheer en het mooi na ons gekyk.

Wonderlike plek om te bly.

Baie lekker gebly en baie rustig. Die kommunikasie was ook uitstekend met die bestuur.

Great place to switch off!

Wonderful nature to move around in freely.

Absoluut heerlik.

Rustige, stil omgewing, genoeg staproetes, fantastiese brandhout (genoeg), sagte beddens, ordentlike beddegoed, alles in die kombuis wat nodig is, en WiFi was 'n bonus! Dankie Maggie vir jou gasvryheid!

Wonderlike oornagplekkie.

Wel geleë en toeganklike akkommodasie op pad in of uit Krugerwildtuin. Baie eetplekke in Hoedspruit met 'n breë prysreeks.

Awesomeness in the bush.

We had a fantastic stay and were blessed with a visit by a grey duiker at the front door! Lovely walks and drives in the veld with the convenience of town right outside the gates of the estate. Leadwood Lodge is a must-visit!

Beslis die moeite werd.

Heerlik gekuier en gerus. Dankie aan Tammy vir uitstekende diens en gasvryheid.

Went for business and had a nice stay over.

Nice property to stay at, has everything you need.

Perfekte verblyf indien jy werk in Hoedspruit.

Ek het baie lekker hier gebly terwyl ek werk gehad het om te doen in Hoedspruit. Dit is slegs 10 minute vanaf die dorp maar dit voel of mens iewers diep in die Bosveld is. Ek sal graag weer hier bly wanneer ek in die omgewing is, vir werk of vakansie.

Mooi blyplek met puik diens.

Ons het baie lekker in Tamboti gebly en die swembad was 'n lafenis. Dankie, Tammy, vir al jou moeite met aanwysings vir die beste roete terug huistoe. Ons sal beslis weer by Leadwood Lodge oorbly.

Great location, friendly host.

See stars.

Nice, quiet place to spend a night en route to the KNP.

A little bit of all you need for an overnight stay.

Baie lekker gebly.

Lugversorger sal 'n groot pluspunt wees, veral in Hoedspruit se hitte is dit eintlik onontbeerlik.

Wonderful but hot.

I wish the house was equipped with air-conditioning! The fan was not cooling enough.

It was a very peaceful stay! Just make sure to keep the windows closed as the monkeys will definitely come bother you.

This was genuinely a great honeymoon spot. We truly enjoyed our stay. Tammy assisted us with everything. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Great location and value.

Leadwood Lodge has a great location next to the river and in a quiet part of the Wildlife Estate. We stayed in lodge 4 which as south-facing is cool in summer but rather cold and dark in winter. The other units have much better locations. Would recommend it for future stays.

It was very pleasant.

I requested an extra bed in the lounge area of chalet 2 and when we arrived there it was in the adjacent chalet which my sister had booked. This was a bit unsatisfactory as we had made plans according to original arrangement. The coffee in the glass container was hard and could not be used even though we noticed that there was milk placed in the fridge.

Oornag vir werk.

Vir 'n 2de keer was Leadwood vir ons 'n vinnige een nag verblyf vir werksdoeleindes. Die vervlyf is baie skoon, gerieflik en veilig. Die gasvrou baie behulpsaam en verskaf al die inligting vir hek toegang, ens. Ons verkies alleenstaande eenhede en ongelukkig kon ons die keer nie die een bespreek wat ons wou nie. Die lodges wat aan mekaar grens en vir 'n gesinseenheid gebruik kan word is egter nie so privaat nie en jy hoor jou bure (hulle hoor jou seker ook). Ons sal weer daar oornag as die regte eenheid beskikbaar is.

Netjies.

Baie lekker maar kort aircon in daai hitte. Het lodge 4 geboek maar my geskuif na lodge 5.

Baie lekker, die kamer kort net lugverkoelling.

Geen.

Tipiese in-die-bos-gevoel.

Sien sterre.

Gemaklik, maar nie foutloos.

Ons sal weer gaan kuier om hulle nog 'n kans te gee, maar in die winter, as gevolg van geen lugversorger in die kamers. Ek stel ook voor dat satelliet-TV aangebring word.

Pragtig.

Baie rustig gewees. Moes mens dalk net gesê het dat hulle besig was met verbouings.

Nice location, but overpriced.

Contact with owner was easy via email. Unfortunately, wifi was very bad and not working the first days. After the owner made some changes, the wifi was working. Another complaint was fixed by the owner. We hired the apartment for 3 persons which I would not recommend. Because you really have a small space, especially on colder days. For 2 people it is better. But for the price asked I would expect more space and a better view of the surrounding. Now due to the gated garden and the carport for all the properties not a lot of animals will roam around your garden. You have to go into the park to see the animals, which are easy to spot. And keep in mind that the double bed is extremely high. Like 1 meter high, so you need to climb in.

No aircon in Hoedspruit?

Price-wise, I think rather expensive. My sister and her family stayed at another property for the same price, with airconditioned rooms and full breakfast!

Sien onder.

Die bestuurder kan nie kommunikeer nie en het nie die vermoë om te kommunikeer as daar beurtkrag is nie (alles natuurlik tegnies moontlik). Advertensie het nie vooraf aangedui dat die stort net vir 4 min warm water het nie. Mangat wat watermeter het se deksel is gebreek - veiligheidsrisiko omdat ek amper daarin gery het.

Baie teleurstellend, derde keer gebruik en sal nie weer nie.

Dis die derde keer wat ek vir my maatskappymense daar boek. Derde keer wat warm water 'n probleem is. Die keer rapporteer Priscilla dat die drein van die toilet verstop is die dag van aankoms. Niks gebeur, die Dinsdag kry slegte behandeling en wil hulle haar invoice vir die drein ontblok. Beskuldig haar van vrouedoekies wat drein verstop, Priscilla is 'n nuwe mamma so haar siklus het nog nie weer begin nie, kan nie sy wees nie, wat sy ook aan hulle rapporteer het. Ons as maatskappy weier dus om die dreinontblok te betaal en sal nooit mense na hulle aanbeveel nie.

Pragtige plek, baie rustig en gerieflik.

Ons sal definitief weer gaan kuier. Lekker naby alles, maar tog 'n egte wegbreek. Tammy het ook die ekstra myl gestap. Ons is baie gelukkig. Probeer gerus!

Peaceful, with great service and stunning views.

We had such a great stay and the people where very accommodating with us. The place is perfectly look after and has amazing views. We will see you again for sure.

Luukse verblyf in 'n veilige omgewing.

Die eenheid is uitstekend toegerus en baie ruim. Sal graag in die somer weer 'n draai wil kom maak om die swembad te probeer.

Loved Tammy, the owner, she's the best.

I recommend the place to anyone young and old. I would definitely go back.

Heerlike, rustige verblyf.

Lieflike verblyf in die Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate. Al die geriewe wat jy benodig en meer. Voel werklik of jy in die bos bly. Tammy se diens was uitstekend.

Rustige, ontspanne kuier in die bos.

Goeie kommunikasie met padaanwysing en vir hektoegang. Goed toegeruste verblyf. Lekker stap en fietsry.

Rustig, mooi bosveld.

Was baie lekker met die bokke wat in die rivierloop wei!

Pragtige akkomodasie in 'n rustige omgewing weg van die stad se gejaag.

Skoon, super gemaklike bed en uitstekende diens.

Beautifully located in the bush. With pool, deck and superb bedrooms, outside shower.

Overall the best accommodation we have experienced!

Only stayed for one night but it was a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Thank you.

Ons het net een nag oorgeslaap, op pad Kruger Wildtuin toe, maar dit steeds baie geniet.

Dit was 'n heerlike ervaring en ons sal graag volgende keer langer by Leadwood Lodge wil oorbly. Goeie verblyf, vriendelike ontvangs, stil en rustig, pragtige ligging.

The most amazing place in the bush!

We were on holiday and stayed for 10 nights at Leadwood Lodge. Our lodge was perfect for the 3 of us, and Tammy's hospitality was more than we could have asked for. You are completely surrounded by the bush here with an awesome swimming pool to cool you off. Whether you enjoy a bush sunrise, or sundowner, Leadwood will have you covered. Can't wait to get back there!
