Grahamstown
Safari/Game Lodge
(18
rooms)
Kwandwe Private Game Reserve is home to four majestic safari lodges, each with its own distinctive charm and character: Great Fish River Lodge, Ecca Lodge, Uplands Homestead and Melton Manor.
Families or small groups of friends travelling together can choose to enjoy an entirely intimate and exclusive safari experience at one of Kwandwe’s two gracious sole-use safari villas, Uplands Homestead and Melton Manor.
When booking an exclusive villa, enjoy the spectacular scenery and wildlife in your own private 4x4 safari vehicle, and have your every whim taken care of by a dedicated ranger/host, personal chef and butler.
Ecca Lodge Double Suite:
Set in thick vegetation with sweeping views over a dense valley, Ecca Lodge is exclusive and intimate. The lodge’s chic décor celebrates the vibrant colours of the African people, with each suite deocrated in a different colour. Six spacious and private suites feature private decks with plunge pools, en-suite bathrooms, indoor and outdoor showers, separate w.c, twin basins and personal bars.
