Leopard’s Lair Self Catering Unit

Leopard’s Lair Self Catering Unit

Conveniently located between Johannesburg and Durban, the child-friendly Leopard’s Lair farm is located Escourt in the malaria-free KZN Midlands, renowned for its unspoilt beauty, tranquillity and hospitality.

The thing that is always amazing about being on a farm is the sound of silence. You realise something is different – the constant hum of city life is gone and the peace and quiet is something you can really feel. That’s when you notice other, more calming sounds – the hens and their little chicks cheep-cheeping around the garden, the goats and sheep, and the many different calls from the birds lining the branches of the trees.

Sample a true taste of country life – join in feeding the animals with the children, walk hand-in-hand through the fields, watch the wildlife, learn about real people’s lives on a working farm.

Our thatched, self-catering, cottage is spacious and sleeps 6. It is clean, cosy and warm with the added attraction of an open fire and a private lapa. There is plenty to see and do on the farm.

We offer you a comfortable and homely base with many attractions a short drive away, but you can of course come here and do absolutely nothing. We don’t mind!

Just imagine the peace and tranquillity, with a log fire and a night full of stars…..
