DESCRIPTION:
High up on the solid rock face of the Magaliesberg Mountains, a gorge rips straight into the rock. The gorge is softened only by a blanket of shrubs and trees which have grown over millennia, watered by the purest, cleanest water imaginable. The owners of this unique property, have created a wonder in its midst – yes Leopard Lodge. It is only when one drives in the gate of Leopard Lodge that you realize what has been left behind. The mystique of the place is tangible. Following a designated trail higher and higher, under a thick canopy of trees, a strong feeling of peace will overwhelm you. Leopard Lodge is a haven for not only our bashful brides but for one and all.
The lodge has a 4 star grading and the main building houses the reception rooms, restaurant, bar, conference rooms and large verandah. The lodge has a peaceful atmosphere and yet, situated near Hartbeespoort, it’s just a short 55km drive from the hustle and bustle of Sandton and 60km from Pretoria.
