4.9 /5

Based on over 1000 Verified Reviews.

Overview

The Uplands Homestead lies at the heart of South Africa's malaria-free Kwandwe Private Game Reserve and is a natural conclusion to an adventure along the world-famous Garden Route. Located in the Eastern Cape, this diverse and fascinating reserve has been restored and restocked with classic African wildlife and today hosts thousands of animals including lion, black and white rhino, buffalo and elephant.

This private safari lodge is perfect for families who want space for their kids to run around or for small groups seeking privacy. A sensitively restored 1905 farmhouse, it has a lovely bush-country feel and its grounds are fenced for peace of mind. Laze around the garden, cool off in the large swimming pool or make use of your private ranger and 4x4 safari vehicle and explore the Kwandwe Private Game Reserve in search of the Big 5.

Rooms

Exclusive Use

Accommodating up to five guests, Uplands Homestead is an exclusive-use restored 1905 farmhouse featuring three spacious en suite bedrooms with private terraces. Facilities range from an in-room safe and WiFi to antique mirrors and Victorian claw-foot tubs in the bathrooms.

Facilities

It's a personalised experience at Uplands: in discussion with your ranger, you'll determine the length and the route of your game drives into Kwande Private Game Reserve on your own private 4x4 safari vehicle while your personal chef and butler will take care of your needs back at the Uplands Homestead. Relax in the lodge's wonderful gardens in between activities and make use of the large swimming pool.

Dining

The Uplands Homestead's private chef prepares delicious family dishes as well as local specialities in the modernised farm kitchen. The lodge's elegant dining areas feature high ceilings, wooden floors and beautiful fireplaces but for an unforgettable culinary experience, nothing beats a true bush banquet in a surprise outdoor setting under the African sky.
