From the striking décor of the communal lounge to the moody aesthetic of the expansive suites, Dulini Leadwood delivers a thoroughly contemporary safari experience, ideal for honeymooners and small groups seeking privacy and exclusivity.
Much like the giant trees after which it is named, Dulini Leadwood takes deep root in the heart of all those who linger here. This is the ultimate safari choice for the discerning traveler in search of exclusive solitude. Tucked secretively in the confluence of the Sand and Mabrak Rivers, Dulini Leadwood offers intimate and serene solace in a lodge that is completely at peace with its verdant setting.
VIEWING DECK
The movement of game through the trails around the camp may be enjoyed from the cantilevered deck, tented by a leafy Jackalberry. It is not uncommon to secretly witness the passage of an elusive leopard from this vantage point. The deck also offers an alternative venue for enjoying the rich fare at meal times.
DINING BOMA
Traditionally known as The Boma, this truly African dining venue boasts a ceiling of stars and a roaring fire. It is around the Boma fire that friendships are sealed and all African bush yarns are spun – grandiose tales of fearsome beasts and great escapes are always more memorable when shared around the camp fire.
Accommodation
Dulini Leadwood is the ultimate safari choice for discerning travellers in search of bespoke exclusivity, luxury and solitude. The sleek modern aesthetic in both the exquisite suites and luxurious main lodge, bring peace and calm to all those who take refuge here.
Dulini Leadwood draws its style inspiration from the natural surrounds, showcasing moody tones of chocolate and ebony that mirror the surrounding woodland.
Vibrant splashes of brass and ochre speak to the soils of the wilderness beyond the lodge, while walls of rough-hewn stone, echo the granite boulders that rise from the rivers’ confluence.
Luxury Suites
Four exclusive suites whisper of lavish luxury: an idyllic honeymoon setting as well as an appealing venue for soirees of friends and families who relish exclusivity. With alluring views over the granite boulders of the Sand River, each suite is stylishly appointed in contemporary style with every creature comfort imaginable.
