Redefining the meaning of ‘private’, Hopewell Lodge is an exclusive hideaway where unspoilt nature meets pure African luxury and guests reconnect with nature at their own pace.

This private game reserve in South Africa’s beautiful malaria-free Eastern Cape hosts up to 12 guests in stylish, secluded suites with sweeping views. 

Waking up to the sounds and sights of the African bush, sundowners above the elephants’ favourite watering hole, relaxing in a secluded private swimming pool overlooking the bush, together with sumptuous dinners under the stars, provide the memories that linger long after your stay.

Individual bookings are taken and groups of 8 pax or more qualify for exclusive use.
Guests are guaranteed privacy and they get to set their own schedule for game drives, meals and activities. 

The passionate and experienced ranger guides our guests through the rolling landscape, ever willing to stop and discuss plants, insects, birds and game spotted along the way.  .

Guests are likely to encounter our herd of elephant along with hippo, hyena, giraffe, zebra, buffalo, cheetah, leopard, antelope and other indigenous species.
Up close and personal interaction with a cheetah is a highlight of this unique wildlife experience.

Abundant birdlife.
