Exeter is situated within the Sabi Sand Game Reserve, renowned for having the best Big Five game viewing in South Africa. Located on the south western corner of the Kruger National Park, there are no restricting fences, thus enabling the animals to roam freely just as nature intended. The Reserve is famous for its incredible leopard sightings and the Sabi Sand leopards have grown accustomed to safari vehicles, thereby permitting close up sightings and extraordinary photographic opportunities.
Exeter Dulini Safari Lodge has 6 spacious stone cottages along the banks of the dry Mabrak River. The beautifully appointed suites boast generous plunge pools, shady decks and classic interiors that celebrate the signature style of the Reserve. The guest area is an elegant space filled with big welcoming sofas and interesting African sculptures. Dine under the ancient jackalberry tree where skilled chef’s serve delicious Pan African meals, or steal away for a romantic candlelit dinner in the well-stocked wine cellar. Exeter River Lodge sits in the shade of a grove of ebony trees right on the edge of the Sand River. 8 luxury suites spread out along the shady bank, all with elegant bathrooms and private plunge pools. Magnificently positioned guest sitting and dining areas overlook the Sand River. A giant sausage tree provides shade for long, lazy afternoon lunches. Romantic candlelit dinners in the African bush, or on the deck of the guest suites, offer more memorable dining experiences. Exeter Leadwood Lodge is nestled against a well wooded bank of the Sand River, where jackalberry and leadwood trees lend their shade. Its 4 suites are distanced from one another to offer solitude and serenity. Each suite has a fireplace, sitting room and private pool, surrounded by a wooden deck and granite wall. Spacious en suite bathrooms pamper and delight guests. Leadwood lodge can also be sold for exclusive use bookings.
