Overview

Leeuwenbosch Country House is a gracious colonial country house set amidst beautiful indigenous gardens, offering a family safari experience steeped in settler history.

Accommodation at Leeuwenbosch is set in an historic Country House. Built in 1908, it offers four spacious en-suite bedrooms and is layered with a collection of historical images, documents and furniture dating back to the 1800s.

Savour a quiet moment in the indistinct stillness of the 19th-century stone chapel. Enjoy high tea in the shade of the verandah. Sit late into the night in the convivial stone-walled cellar bar. Cool off from the summer heat in the swimming pool set in the lush gardens. This wonderful homestead has been in the Fowlds family for five generations, and the family takes great pleasure in sharing its remarkable Southern African family heritage with you.
