Long Lee Manor is a gracious Edwardian manor house set in the stunning landscape of the Big 5 Shamwari Private Game Reserve, a malaria-free Eden in the temperate Eastern Cape province of South Africa. Set in manicured gardens that lead out onto open grassland that is often dotted with grazing antelope, this grand establishment offers twice-daily game drives that consistently deliver excellent sightings of rhino, elephant and lion, while the more elusive cheetah and leopard are also occasionally seen. Guided nature walks with an armed guide provide a fascinating insight into the smaller aspects of the ecosystem, while visits to the Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre and the Born Free Big Cat Sanctuary are highly recommended.
Perfect as an introductory safari destination first-time visitors to Africa or for families with children over the age of eight, Long Lee Manor is ideally situated near Port Elizabeth, making it a great place to end a self-drive vacation up the world-famous Garden Route.
