Leadwood Lodge

The beauty of Duluni Bush Lodge lies in the exclusivity of its luxurious accommodation. Embraced under a leafy canopy of Ebony Trees, six traditionally thatched suites, grace the banks of the Mabrak Riverbed.


Each suite is individual in character ranging from the old world charm of the Classic Safari Suites; a marriage of African and colonial elegance in the African Heritage Suites; and ethnic tranquility in the African Contemporary Suites. The subtle blend of pan-African art and the traditional safari theme, achieves an enchantingly eclectic style epitomizing the African Renaissance.

“…A memory to be made…”

Kirkman's Camp

Overlooking the Sand River, this South African game lodge has spectacular views of the unspoilt wilderness as far as the eye can see. Kirkman's Kamp is a historic and famous camp which was originally built in the early 1920’s. Kirkman's Kamp was named in honour of W. Harry Kirkman, one of South Africa ’s foremost conservationists, who began his illustrious career as a ranger in Toulon in 1927.

The colonial atmosphere of gracious style and luxury has been retained and one steps back in time upon entering the old homestead, which now serves as the recreational hub of the camp. The large lounge, decorated in 1920 style, leads through double French doors onto rolling lawns that provide a velvety contrast to the wild and tumbling bush surrounding the camp.

Breakfast and lunch are either served in the new air-conditioned dining area, or on the shady surrounding verandahs. Dinner at this South African game lodge is a very special event taken under the stars in the boma around a campfire.
