Dear Melissa, Roxanne, Jade, Ashton, Ivor, Wesley and Chase,
Goodness, where do I start?
Thank you so much for making our 10th wedding anniversary so very special!!
Our accommodation was super, the food delicious, staff friendly and warm and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived!
Wesley, thank you so much for looking after us - for your informative game drives and stories and of course the game walk...
I cannot think of anywhere else I would have rather been than waking up to the Piet-my-Vrou, lying in the hammock and listening to the sounds of the bush..
A very big thank you from Gary and I - we will most certainly be back!
We hope you have a wonderful - albeit very busy- Christmas and a super New Year.

Good morning from Brussels and first day to work after our fantastic holiday in South Africa. Today the sky is blue but temperature in the morning was only +3 degrees after having frozen in the night. I had to scrape my windscreen. Winter is on its way.
Once again I want to thank all your team for the great way that you took care of us. We felt sorry leaving Leopard Mountain Lodge. Watching yesterday the dvd that we received from you brought back some great memories.
A special thanks to our rangers Tavis, Wesley and Ivor who taught us patience and how to appreciate also the little creatures such as bugs, birds and plants. It’s not only the Big 5 that count. Wonderful.
I send the whole team at Leopard Mountain Game Lodge – including kitchen and cleaning staff - my, Paula’s and Tina’s best regards and thanks for an unforgettable stay. Keep on with the great way that you treat your guests.
Markku
p.s. I hope you have had some desperately needed rain since we left

Dear All
Many thanks for the lovely email. Our stay at your lodge was absolutely wonderful. The service was excellent and the ambiance was amazing. I would like to give a special mention to Chase for his knowledge and insight on so many species. He really was an added bonus to our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed his company and would like to thank him for his efforts and our great chats we shared with him. Simone also needs a special mention. Her warm presence did not go unnoticed and Simone was a very bright future ahead of her. What a wonderful young lady.
Thank you for everything and we hope to be back. Take care and good luck for the festive season.
Regards

Wesley – once again thank you for organising my Leopard spot. Truly amazing stuff. J
Hope to see you again soon. Thank you once again.

“Relaxing, romantic lodge with great staff, plenty of game and incredible views!”
Reviewed October 19, 2011 NEW
We booked to go to Leopard Mountain with one day's notice as the place we wanted to go in Kruger was full - this was definitely no bad thing, as Leopard Mountain was stunning. A fantastic lodge, complemented by the most amazing views and extremely helpful staff meant we had an incredible two night stay. The guys that do the game drives are so passionate about what they do, and will go out of their way to make your stay as relaxing as they can. Each night we had a 4 course dinner round a log fire complemented by a wide choice of wine from the lodge's cellar. The lodge is in Zululand Rhino Reserve, which is a Big Five reserve now 3 lions have been introduced in early 2011 (we were lucky enough to see them one night too!). If you want game drives that are informative, fun, and with no sense of rush, this is the place to go - some mornings we were out for nearly 4 hours. One of the other couples commented how different to Kruger this was, as we didn't see anyone else on the drives, and were off the main road a lot of the time. Apparently Kruger felt quite touristy - this felt like we had our own private reserve! There may, however, be better reserves to go to if you purely want to see the Big Five quickly, for example Hluhluwe-Imfolozi, which can be a day trip from Leopard Mountain, where there are larger populations of some species. During our stay we saw plenty of game, including black and white rhino, lions, buffalo, wilderbeest, many of the antelope family, monkeys, hundreds of birds and who could forget the giraffe that greeted us every morning near the lodge! I couldn't recommend this lodge more highly - a truly wonderful place, with beautiful rooms, great staff and a view to die for!

Hi Everyone at Leopard Mountain.
Thank you so much for such a great stay at Leopard Mountain Lodge! We wish so much that we will return……Emily needs to return at a time when she will remember all her wonderful experiences! We cannot thank you guys enough for the effort you put in around Emily; it has a huge effect on our quality of holiday!
After leaving you guys we had a great time in Cape Town and the wine valley – great weather and fantastic sights!
Unfortunately we are now back at work in “sunny” London…….but still dreaming of all we saw in beautiful South Africa.

Hi Melissa
Thank you so much for your hospitality during our stay at Leopard Mountain Lodge. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you and all the staff there for making our stay so enjoyable and carefree. Having young kids with us was a trial and your team of babysitters and staff really did well to accommodate us. The highlight for us where the special occasion dinner for our anniversary. Rory and I where spoilt with time for ourselves. The game drives at the lodge where amazing as we managed to see the big five without having to leave the property. Thanks to Rylie, Werner and Chase for their company and stories on the game drives, they were very entertaining. The food I must say was fabulous, fresh and delicious. And thanks Melissa ever so much for organising all our activities.
Cheers Rory, Farisha, Rohan & Shaylan McVeigh Brisbane, Australia

Hi,
we just wanted to thank you again for the amazing stay we had at the Leopard Mountain Game Lodge!! We really enjoyed the tours with enthusiastic guides and never thought we would actually learn that much while staring at so many amazing animals. Obviously, there is much more to learn and thus room for our stupid questions so you will probably see us again! ;)
Please keep up this nice mood at the lodge and have fun with the lady lions!
All the best,
Raffael & Candy
P.S. Of course, you are more than welcome to visit Germany and we will give you a game drive there! Not sure what the big 5 would be though... ;)
05th of October 2011
Eve, David and I so much enjoyed our stay with you and can't wait till the next time!!
We got back to the most glorious sunny, warm, weather - made up for the cold weather in South Africa, but I believe we are back to Autumn again tomorrow, with a vengeance!
If I can I will send you a photo of the ant we would like to know the name of - I'm sure Ivor will know what it is.
Thank you so much for sending me your e-mail addresses. Hope it won't be too long before we are making another booking!
Best wishes to you all,
Ruth (Lloyd)

To everyone at Leopard Mountain,
We would just like to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone for making our honeymoon trip so very special. When we stayed as guests at your lodge from the 15th to the 19th of August this year, we were treated far more than guests, we were treated as royalty! From the very moment we set foot upon your beautiful grounds we were shown warmth, respect and true, good nature. We were pampered in so many ways, from the fantastic food to the wonderful and informative game drives. Your grounds were fantastic, with breathtaking views and sunsets, and seeing how much everyone cared for the animals was phenomenal. We had such a wonderful time and it was sad to have to leave, but we've been bragging to all our friends and family about our stay, and you've been highly recommended by us! A special thanks to Chase and Wesley, who were our game drivers for our stay. They were highly informative and showed a true passion for their work that made our drives even more exciting. We hope to see them again when we next come through, and this time we'll try and bring some friends so that we can have them and a vehicle to ourselves. To all the staff, even the one's whose names we can't remember (but we do know the faces), thank you so very much. We hope to see you all again soon.
Regards, Tim and Leanne Butler
27th September 2011
I feel like brand new again after the weekend I had with you guys. Thank you soooooo much for such a lovely weekend. We will definitely make a point of visiting your lodge again, and hopefully spot the rest of the big 5, especially the shy buffalo, lion and leopard that decided to hide the entire time we were there :-)
Kind regards,

Dear Melissa
We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the staff at your ludge. We received such warm service it is unbelievable. All the guides were quire knowledgeable and they made our first safari experience such a pleasureable one. Myself and my husband had the best time ever, our family is jealous, so don't be surprised when we bring a bus load along next time we come :)
We will definitely be back!

To Melissa, Wesley, Roxanne and the rest of the gang,
Thank you very much for a truely wonderful weekend. You guys made us feel so special and we had a wonderful time. I cannot believe how quickly I got into the relaxed mode and enjoyed myself.
We travel to game reserves regularly and I must say that the standard of your guided game drive and the knowledge that Wesley imparted was great. I learnt a few things. I also appreciated the time we spent with the Elephants on Sat afternoon. It was so nice not to be wisked off after 5 minutes and to spend some quality time observing them.
We will definately be back again for a weekend.
Kind Regards Richard Stone

Dear Melissa and the Leopard Mountain Team
What a joy to receive the feedback from my mom and dad (Lyall and Val Lloyd-Evans) after their stay with you on Saturday and Sunday....
Besides the beauty of the venue (which I do know having been there with a Bayside Aluminium Team some years back) they were taken by the hospitality – said that it felt like being with family, home away from home - the food which was delicious and in abundance - the room (especially the heated beds and Cherry on their return from dinner) - to the knowledge of the gentleman who took them on the game drive were just some of the things they raved about. It appears that you are running a stunning lodge with attention to the smallest detail which is making all the difference. They took the advice given them and returned home to Richards Bay via the Hlulhuwe Game Reserve, but still rate Leopard Mountain as the venue they would be willing to dig into their pension fund for just to have another visit.
I will await the return of our girls from their cycling in Belgium to watch the DVD you sent back with them. I will also feedback to the Big Five Committee on this amazing prize that was sponsored by your lodge.
Thank you for taking such good care of my folks and making it a weekend that they will always remember.
Kind regards

Dear All,
Thank you for your warm greetings and wondeful hospitality. It truly was an amazing experience which we both enjoyed so much. The lovely welcome we received, the delicious tea and the afternoon game drive were really special. The dinner in theevening and the setting was warm and relaxing. Lyall also enjoyed the early morning game drive and was so impressed with your knowledge Ivor regarding the animals, the bush and even the insects. We both felt at home and at ease with each one of you, like family! Thank you once again for a wonderful experience and we pray that we will be able to come and visit again in the near future.
Be blessed and keep up the good work, you truly are a lovely team.

Dear all,
Thank you so much for your message. We really had a wonderful stay at Leopard Mountain ! It was one of the best part of our stay in South Africa. We made a lot of pictures and we will spend hours looking at them.
We will be very happy to receive the "Leopard Tail" with some news. We do hope to come back in the future.
We would like to thank Wesley once again for all his very interesting explanation during the game drives about animals, trees, birds etc. We also appreciated very much his respect of the wild life.
Best regards to all your team.

Thank you for sending us this beautiful poem, it is really good.

Your chalets are absolutely beautiful – and the food was spectacular. A five star experience!
We will definitely recommend the lodge to our friends and family as a fantastic and romantic getaway. Thank you for making our anniversary so special.
Hope to see you all soon (and see the lions introduced in the reserve!)

Dear A Team
We are safely home, having showcased Salt Rock, Durban and the Midlands to our visitors.Our stay at Leopard Mountain was indeed memorable, except for the blustery weather conditions which were very unseasonal for July.
Thank you for our DVD which we will certainly share with interested folk.
We appreciated all the little toucheslike thewelcome letter with grass seeds and thorns decorating the outside, the weather forecasts, the picnic lunches, the electric blankets being switched on for us,and all the smiles that the staff hand out so freely. Many thanks for taking care of our every need.
We look forward to our next newsletter.

Dear Melissa, Nikki and team
Thank you from all of us for a most memorable experience!
From the moment we were met on arrival by friendly faces, to the moment we sadly had to leave, we felt welcome, special and indulged. The staff were all fantastic, the food fabulous and the experience one we will remember for many years to come. The fact that our overseas guests saw the Big 5 in 2 days, was the cherry on the top and it was certainly a privilege to have shared a bit of the Leopard Mountain paradise.
Not only will I highly recommend Leopard Mountain as a honeymoon and wedding destination, but to our friends and colleagues as well. We will be back!
Looking forward to promoting your wonderful lodge, from firsthand experience.
Warm Regards

Dear all at Leopard Mountain Lodge
Thank you for your email. Yes, we arrived back safely in a chilly UK yesterday after a wonderful trip to South Africa and Lesotho.
We really enjoyed our stay at Leopard Mountain and loved the way you managed to make us feel like real guests: everything was so friendly, informal and relaxed, and yet the standard of service and facilities was excellent. It was everything we could have hoped for, including the delicious food. James was a bit worried when I suggested that we would not need the lunch basket, but after your wonderful breakfast, no more was said!
The highlight of our game drives was seeing the cheetah wandering along the track, bellies full from a recent kill, and following them down to a waterhole where one very cautiously lapped from a muddy puddle at the edge. Clearly even predators take precautions. It was a real treat to be able to spend such a long time with them and I have posted a comment on your blog.
We will definitely let Rainbow Tours know how much we approved of their choice of lodge and recommend you to any other friends visiting SA.
Thanks again to everyone
Sarah and James Bradley

Dear Melissa,
Jacquie and I want to say a "very big thank you" to you and your wonderful team for you generous hospitality and attention.We were happy to see that the Lodge had not changed, still the lovely, warm inviting place that we remembered.
The food was excellent andweare sure that everyone appreciates the great breakfasts. Your tea time treatssurely must break downany dieter'sresistance, especially those little chocolate cakes! Unfortunately we didn't get to try the picnic basket, we were both so well fed, but Jacquie did see one and said it was beautifully done. No one should ever under estimate the power of good food.
It was great to see so many animals on our game drives and also at the hide. Johan and Riley were excellent guides and shared their knowledge with us in an informative and entertaining way. We think the hide is great addition to the "things to do list". We could happily have parked off there for the whole afternoon - "ifwe leave now whatare we going to miss" sort of thing.
As you know Jacquie has travelled widely and been to many places but, like me thinks that Leopard Mountain is a very special place.
Once again our sincere thanks to everyone for making our stay such a pleasant one.
Kind regards
Jacquie and Elizabeth

Hi Melissa and Crew,
I just wanted to quickly thank you for such an outstanding time at Leopard Mountain. We cannot thank you enough for all that you did for us during our stay, especially on our wedding day.
Everyone had an incredible time and the actual day was made so much easier due to your care and attention to detail.
If you ever have anyone contemplating having their wedding with you, please give them our contact information - we'd be very happy to act as a reference.
Melissa and Linda, I know how much hard work and effort you put into getting the lodge ready for the wedding. It showed and it was very much appreciated. Thank you!
Riley and Johann - thank you for the fun Game drives - we all had a blast with you both.
Please pass this email along to the lodge owner to extend our thanks to him as well and to let him know that he has a great team! Thanks again! Amanda & Adrian Hamilton

Dear Everyone at Leopard Mountain,
Thank you for this email – we arrived home this morning so it is very good timing!
We did all enjoy ourselves enormously – I was going to drop you an email to say how lovely we all thought your Lodge was – excellent service, excellent scenery, lovely food and just such a relaxing atmosphere in a very special location. We left you for the Drakensberg Mountains and then 4 days at the beach in amazing sunshine – and back to England for us and only 9 degrees!
We were particularly impressed with Letishia – she was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly and obliging to do what we wanted to do and see – we have all been to safari lodges at various times over the last few years so have seen the Big 5 but it is the experience that we were going for this time and Letishia certainly helped us with that – including getting us all to try the Sour Plum!! Not to be forgotten!! And Oriel was extremely patient with our 'birthday boy' in the bar on one particular evening! He was a treasure and so helpful.
I also intend to put a very positive update on Trip Advisor which is a very popular website in England as I think you deserve a high rating and I hope you continue to achieve your high standards. We may not be back (only because we rarely go to the same place twice) but we will definitely be recommending you to all our friends both here in England and South Africa.
We loved it all and have lots of photos to wade through! Many thanks to you all for your wonderful hospitality and letting us share your very special neck of the world!
With love and best wishes

To Everyone at Leopard Mountain
Thank you all for a wonderful Christmas - we had a truly memorable time. Unfortunately the leopard was one step ahead of us every time we went out on a game drive but I fully expect to see him on our next visit!
Take care and all the best for 2011.

Dear Linda, Johann, Rylie, Zee & the all the others at Leopard Mountain that we did not take time to personally meet but who far exceeded our expectations from a friendliness, warmth, hospitality, and professional point of view -
Thank You seems such an inadequate word to use to express our sincere appreciating and gratitude.
We had a lovely return trip not to mention a wonderful boat cruse at St. Lucia during which we sighted Hippo, a few Crocs, birds, fish as well as prawns. The weather, as you know, was not the greatest yesterday which prevented us seeing more of the evasive hippos and, or Crocs – nonetheless amazing.
We look forward to receiving Leopard Mountain's updates and YES to returning to your home soon, as of all the places we visited, none as come anywhere as close to being branded our home away from home.
Take good care of yourselves and keep up the excellent work and service levels,
Many Thanks again for the MEMORIES which we and Caleb especially, will carry with us for many many years to come.

Hello Melissa, Johann,Linda, Isaac, Rylie and Zee,
yes we are back home and we thank you for your nice e-mail. We like to remember to all of you and when we came home here we had still snow. It is gone now, but it seems to come back. It is much better at your place. After leaving your beautiful lodge we got a lot of impressions and we took a lot of pictures. We enjoyed our stay with you and told Nicole to find guests for your house while we had such a warm stay there.
Good luck for 2011 for all of you
Kind regards

Please thank the game rangers for the awesome game drives, I have learnt so much and the way they love and respect nature should be an example for all.
Warm greetings.

Dear Melissa & Co,
Having returned and readjusted to our 'normal' lives, we just wanted to say thank you all for such a lovely stay at Leopard Mountain. We really had a terrific time and made some great memories! The Lodge and its setting were very beautiful and relaxing and we appreciated all the effort you and the rest of the staff made to ensure our stay was special. We will certainly recommend Leopard Mountain and KwaZulu Natal to our friends and families.
Best of luck to you all and hope to return again sometime.

Hi guys and girls, thank you so much for your hospitality but most of all for just being you.
If it wasn't for you, and I speak specifically of Melissa, Linda, Johan and Rylie, my home from home experience would not have been etched in my mind for a lifetime. You 4 are more than fantastic.
Thank you personally from the bottom of my heart for all the effort you put into the welcome and the ambience in a very "magical" place on earth, you are all very special young people, and LM can be very proud of you.
I look forward to bringing my wonderful hubby along sometime in the near future to appreciate the wonderful experience I have had with you and your awesome chef, of course.
Thank you again and this is not goodbye, but can't wait to see you again soon.

Hi Leopard Mountain Team,
Thanks to all of you for your attention and dedication to your work this past weekend, ie spoiling your guests. You are real experts at doing this. From our arrival and greeting from Linda to the game drives with Ruaan, Johann and Rylie and the smiling faces at dinner with you all and Zee, the total experience for Carole and I was awesome. We really enjoyed our stay at Leopard Mountain. The food was excellent, the service was top class and the enthusiasm and knowledge of the guys on the game drives was great to experience.
Leopard Mountain team can pride itself on what they do and they and the lodge do not have to stand back for any of the "recognized" lodges. Leopard Mountain gives the impression of being a happy family enjoying what they do and working together.
We also really enjoyed the diversity of the reserve. My favourites were the river sections with the big trees and the mountainous sections. The game viewing was better than a lot of lodges we have been to in the past. The view from the lodges was fantastic. Sitting on the deck watching kudu and nyala in the river bed was a bonus.
Thanks again for everything and keep up the excellent work. Keep well.
Tony and Carole

hi guys. Sorry its taken so long but unfortunately the daily grind of normality has taken its toll. Just wanted to drop a line to thank you all so much for an amazing week 3-8th Aug as part of Laura and Jake's wedding party. You treated each and everyone of us to an incredible experience. Thanks to those of you on the front line (melissa, lynda, reilly, rouaan and johan) and those behind the scenes who worked so hard to ensure our stay was memorable. I will definately be back as soon as possible.
With love from the UK

Dear Melissa
I would just like to commend you and your team on an incredible weekend. Ulli and I both feel like we have been away for a whole week, instead of just two nights. Each member of your team played their part perfectly and we cannot fault your service.
Thanks again for making our anniversary so memorable, we will definitely return in the future!
Kind regards
Lauren
PS is there any chance your chef would be willing to part with his recipe for his delicious mushroom and biltong soup – its Ulli's birthday next month and I'd like to make it for a dinner party I'm throwing for him.
17thof August2010
Thank you very much. We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay and must commend you guys on the effort and personal touch that each one of you had made. That is what made our stay memorable. We will definitely be coming back !!

Hi Nicky,
We would like to thank you for a fantastic 2 nights we spent at your lodge. The setting is amazing, the food was great as was your selection of wine.
I felt like we had been able to rest for much longer that the short stay we spent with your fantastic staff. I have been to a number of lodges over the years and can honestly say that this last weekend was one of the best.
Nothing appeared to inconvenience the rangers nor the delightful ladies handling front of desk. The game drive we did was great (although my camera decided to pack up!) as was the few hours spent at the hide.
We will certainly be back.
Best regards
Simon & Tiffany

To the full Leopard Mountain team,
It was a stunning weekend which we all thoroughly enjoyed to the fullest. Please pass on our thanks to all and I will certainly be continuing to recommend the lodge to all my brides that are looking for a unique bush setting for their wedding.
Thanks so much and I will see you all at the beginning of August for the first wedding – which I know is going to be fantastic for the couple!
Keep well and thank you once again.

Dear All,
We have been telling our friends and neighbours about our love affair with Leopard Mountain Lodge. We have as a family been to quite a lot of private game lodges in South Africa and you can hold your head up high as you rank among the best. What superb hospitality – you excelled in every way – and exceeded our expectations!!
Yes, you will definitely see us again.
Kind regards from the Swiss family and Salt Rock family

Thank you for the lovely email. We both had such a fantastic time at Leopard Mountain, which was all down to the amazing people that work there, we both have very fond memories of Sam, Rylie and Ruaan (it's great to meet people who are prepared to go that extra mile) We hope that one day we will be able to make a return journey ... Reality has of course now hit hard, unfortunately I am now back at work! We both truly enjoyed our experience in South Africa and hope to return one day............

Dear Melissa,
May I say thank you to you and all your staff for a most enjoyable, if brief, stay at Leopard Mountain Game Lodge. Ken and I had a fabulous time. We thought the accommodationwas well thought out and very comfortable, the food was excellent and the staff were welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. The game drives were good fun andalthough some of the bigger game was a little shy, we thoroughly enjoyed being out in the bush with Johann. All in all, we couldn't fault anything so thank you for your very kind hospitality.
As we mentioned when we met, we have been looking for a good four star lodge to fill a gap in our database andwe will have no hesitation in recommending the lodge to those of our travellers visiting KZN and looking for a superb bush experience at four star rather than five star price levels.
With best wishes.

Thank you all for a wonderful stay. We thoroughly enjoyed it and will have amazing pics and memories of your lodge and the bush. Yesterday was a perfect day from the drive with Ruan to the elephants, the elephants themselves, the game drive and sundowners with Johan late yesterday, to the lovely dinner outside last night. (only to have been better, had SA won the soccer!)
Regards to everybody and please thank everybody at the lodge. We will definitely see you again in the future.

Hi Melissa, and team of wonderful staff :)
Thanks for the email and, again, many thanks for the amazing weekend. Geoff & I had such a lovely weekend and your Lodge is special, made more so by the staff.
I really look forward to receiving updates from your "Leopard's Tail" - and will definitely have to try some of the tasty recipes. The food at the Lodge was soooo delicious, many compliments to the Chef.
Hopefully I'll havelots ofbookings for you - it certainly makes itmuch easier to sell a lodge / destination once it's been experienced.

Hi Melissa, Johan and Ruan
Just a quick note from Noel and myself to say thanks again for such wonderful stay at Leopard Mountain Lodge.
Although it is very nice to see "big'' game , we really appreciated the time that Johan and Ruan took to make the game drives really really interesting. There is so much more to the bush and every game drive left us wanting more!!
We would also like to compliment the chef, who is very talented and obviously knows good food. His chocolate tart was to DIE for!
We had the most wonderful time and felt quite sad when we had to leave, which is a good sign! It rained so in Cape Town, that the pilot had to abort the landing here, diverted us to PE, refueled and flew back ..to clear skies!! THEN we wanted to move to Hluhluwe like you can't believe!!
Kind Regards

Greetings from Craig and Dona
Thank you all for an excellent 4 days. Let me tell you something. All of you deserve a big big round of applause and a huge bonus!!!! Both of us were amazed at the extremely high levels of service you all offered. We live in a country where service levels are very poor and to find people who care so much is such a pleasure.
Our special anniversary private dinner was fantastic. Nicolene, a big well done to you. Nothing was too much to ask. Riaan, you sir have a very special quality - You share your knowledge of the bushveld with your clients and make every game drive special.
All of you should be awarded a Special Service Award. Please make sure the owners of the lodge are aware of our thoughts for us
I have owned my own business since 1998 and have hired and fired more staff than I wish to mention. You people are top of the pops!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Leopard Mountain
I want to say a big thank you to all of you, Rudolph, Johann, Linda, Charl & Hilke for an absolutely fantabulous weekend. Charl, we really appreciate the extra effort that you made for our vegetarian diet.....it was scrumptous. We were very sad to leave.
I am sure that the Viviers family is aware of how blessed they are to have such a dedicated, warm and friendly team to manage their gem. Our chalet was simply amazing and Seelen cannot stop talking about his special evening for his birthday. It was really amazing. Thank you.
We have spoken about your lodge to just about every person that we met since and told them that if they want to experience a little part of paradise that they "must " visit your lodge.
Well done on an excellent job and see you sooooon.
Regards Seelen and Sanusha Naid

To Melissa, Wesley, Roxanne and the rest of the gang,
Thank you very much for a truely wonderful weekend. You guys made us feel so special and we had a wonderful time. I cannot believe how quickly I got into the relaxed mode and enjoyed myself.
We travel to game reserves regularly and I must say that the standard of your guided game drive and the knowledge that Wesley imparted was great. I learnt a few things. I also appreciated the time we spent with the Elephants on Sat afternoon. It was so nice not to be wisked off after 5 minutes and to spend some quality time observing them.
We will definately be back again for a weekend.

Dear Melissa and the Leopard Mountain Team
What a joy to receive the feedback from my mom and dad (Lyall and Val Lloyd-Evans) after their stay with you on Saturday and Sunday....
Besides the beauty of the venue (which I do know having been there with a Bayside Aluminium Team some years back) they were taken by the hospitality – said that it felt like being with family, home away from home - the food which was delicious and in abundance - the room (especially the heated beds and Cherry on their return from dinner) - to the knowledge of the gentleman who took them on the game drive were just some of the things they raved about. It appears that you are running a stunning lodge with attention to the smallest detail which is making all the difference. They took the advice given them and returned home to Richards Bay via the Hlulhuwe Game Reserve, but still rate Leopard Mountain as the venue they would be willing to dig into their pension fund for just to have another visit.
I will await the return of our girls from their cycling in Belgium to watch the DVD you sent back with them. I will also feedback to the Big Five Committee on this amazing prize that was sponsored by your lodge.
Thank you for taking such good care of my folks and making it a weekend that they will always remember.
Kind regards

Dear All,
Thank you for your warm greetings and wondeful hospitality. It truly was an amazing experience which we both enjoyed so much. The lovely welcome we received, the delicious tea and the afternoon game drive were really special. The dinner in theevening and the setting was warm and relaxing. Lyall also enjoyed the early morning game drive and was so impressed with your knowledge Ivor regarding the animals, the bush and even the insects. We both felt at home and at ease with each one of you, like family! Thank you once again for a wonderful experience and we pray that we will be able to come and visit again in the near future.
Be blessed and keep up the good work, you truly are a lovely team.

We will be very happy to receive the "Leopard Tail" with some news. We do hope to come back in the future.
We would like to thank Wesley once again for all his very interesting explanation during the game drives about animals, trees, birds etc. We also appreciated very much his respect of the wild life.
Best regards to all your team.

We are safely home, having showcased Salt Rock, Durban and the Midlands to our visitors.Our stay at Leopard Mountain was indeed memorable, except for the blustery weather conditions which were very unseasonal for July.
Thank you for our DVD which we will certainly share with interested folk.
We appreciated all the little toucheslike thewelcome letter with grass seeds and thorns decorating the outside, the weather forecasts, the picnic lunches, the electric blankets being switched on for us,and all the smiles that the staff hand out so freely. Many thanks for taking care of our every need.
We look forward to our next newsletter.

Dear Melissa, Nikki and team
Thank you from all of us for a most memorable experience!
From the moment we were met on arrival by friendly faces, to the moment we sadly had to leave, we felt welcome, special and indulged. The staff were all fantastic, the food fabulous and the experience one we will remember for many years to come. The fact that our overseas guests saw the Big 5 in 2 days, was the cherry on the top and it was certainly a privilege to have shared a bit of the Leopard Mountain paradise.
Not only will I highly recommend Leopard Mountain as a honeymoon and wedding destination, but to our friends and colleagues as well. We will be back!
Looking forward to promoting your wonderful lodge, from firsthand experience.
Warm Regards

Thank you for your email. Yes, we arrived back safely in a chilly UK yesterday after a wonderful trip to South Africa and Lesotho.
We really enjoyed our stay at Leopard Mountain and loved the way you managed to make us feel like real guests: everything was so friendly, informal and relaxed, and yet the standard of service and facilities was excellent. It was everything we could have hoped for, including the delicious food. James was a bit worried when I suggested that we would not need the lunch basket, but after your wonderful breakfast, no more was said!
The highlight of our game drives was seeing the cheetah wandering along the track, bellies full from a recent kill, and following them down to a waterhole where one very cautiously lapped from a muddy puddle at the edge. Clearly even predators take precautions. It was a real treat to be able to spend such a long time with them and I have posted a comment on your blog.
We will definitely let Rainbow Tours know how much we approved of their choice of lodge and recommend you to any other friends visiting SA.
Thanks again to everyone
Sarah and James Bradley

We do have very fond memories of your lodge and the personalized service you provide.
We are looking forward to receiving your updates and wish you all great success.
Best regards,

Dear Melissa,
Jacquie and I want to say a "very big thank you" to you and your wonderful team for you generous hospitality and attention.We were happy to see that the Lodge had not changed, still the lovely, warm inviting place that we remembered.
The food was excellent andweare sure that everyone appreciates the great breakfasts. Your tea time treatssurely must break downany dieter'sresistance, especially those little chocolate cakes! Unfortunately we didn't get to try the picnic basket, we were both so well fed, but Jacquie did see one and said it was beautifully done. No one should ever under estimate the power of good food.
It was great to see so many animals on our game drives and also at the hide. Johan and Riley were excellent guides and shared their knowledge with us in an informative and entertaining way. We think the hide is great addition to the "things to do list". We could happily have parked off there for the whole afternoon - "ifwe leave now whatare we going to miss" sort of thing.
As you know Jacquie has travelled widely and been to many places but, like me thinks that Leopard Mountain is a very special place.
Once again our sincere thanks to everyone for making our stay such a pleasant one.
Kind regards
Jacquie and Elizabeth

Hi Melissa and Crew,
I just wanted to quickly thank you for such an outstanding time at Leopard Mountain. We cannot thank you enough for all that you did for us during our stay, especially on our wedding day.
Everyone had an incredible time and the actual day was made so much easier due to your care and attention to detail.
If you ever have anyone contemplating having their wedding with you, please give them our contact information - we'd be very happy to act as a reference.
Melissa and Linda, I know how much hard work and effort you put into getting the lodge ready for the wedding. It showed and it was very much appreciated. Thank you!
Riley and Johann - thank you for the fun Game drives - we all had a blast with you both.
Please pass this email along to the lodge owner to extend our thanks to him as well and to let him know that he has a great team! Thanks again! Amanda & Adrian Hamilton

Dear Melissa and colleagues,
Thanks for your e-mail. We arrived back home safely after a really wonderful couple of days at Leopard Mountain. It was such a pleasure to stay at your place where everyone clearly enjoyed looking after the visitors. The standard of accommodation, food, game drives and service etc. was at a very high standard which we really appreciated.
We will certainly be back sometime in the future.
Best wishes to you all

Dear Everyone at Leopard Mountain,
Thank you for this email – we arrived home this morning so it is very good timing!
We did all enjoy ourselves enormously – I was going to drop you an email to say how lovely we all thought your Lodge was – excellent service, excellent scenery, lovely food and just such a relaxing atmosphere in a very special location. We left you for the Drakensberg Mountains and then 4 days at the beach in amazing sunshine – and back to England for us and only 9 degrees!
We were particularly impressed with Letishia – she was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly and obliging to do what we wanted to do and see – we have all been to safari lodges at various times over the last few years so have seen the Big 5 but it is the experience that we were going for this time and Letishia certainly helped us with that – including getting us all to try the Sour Plum!! Not to be forgotten!! And Oriel was extremely patient with our 'birthday boy' in the bar on one particular evening! He was a treasure and so helpful.
I also intend to put a very positive update on Trip Advisor which is a very popular website in England as I think you deserve a high rating and I hope you continue to achieve your high standards. We may not be back (only because we rarely go to the same place twice) but we will definitely be recommending you to all our friends both here in England and South Africa.
We loved it all and have lots of photos to wade through! Many thanks to you all for your wonderful hospitality and letting us share your very special neck of the world!
With love and best wishes

To Everyone at Leopard Mountain
Thank you all for a wonderful Christmas - we had a truly memorable time. Unfortunately the leopard was one step ahead of us every time we went out on a game drive but I fully expect to see him on our next visit!
Take care and all the best for 2011.
Al and An.

Dear Linda, Johann, Rylie, Zee & the all the others at Leopard Mountain that we did not take time to personally meet but who far exceeded our expectations from a friendliness, warmth, hospitality, and professional point of view -
Thank You seems such an inadequate word to use to express our sincere appreciating and gratitude.
We had a lovely return trip not to mention a wonderful boat cruse at St. Lucia during which we sighted Hippo, a few Crocs, birds, fish as well as prawns. The weather, as you know, was not the greatest yesterday which prevented us seeing more of the evasive hippos and, or Crocs – nonetheless amazing.
We look forward to receiving Leopard Mountain's updates and YES to returning to your home soon, as of all the places we visited, none as come anywhere as close to being branded our home away from home.
Take good care of yourselves and keep up the excellent work and service levels,
Many Thanks again for the MEMORIES which we and Caleb especially, will carry with us for many many years to come.

Hello Melissa, Johann,Linda, Isaac, Rylie and Zee,
yes we are back home and we thank you for your nice e-mail. We like to remember to all of you and when we came home here we had still snow. It is gone now, but it seems to come back. It is much better at your place. After leaving your beautiful lodge we got a lot of impressions and we took a lot of pictures. We enjoyed our stay with you and told Nicole to find guests for your house while we had such a warm stay there.
Good luck for 2011 for all of you
Kind regards

Thank you very much for an unbelievable experience. Your sincere hospitality has left me with a warm feeling in my hart and I will definitely recommend the lodge to any of my friends and loved ones.
Please thank the game rangers for the awesome game drives, I have learnt so much and the way they love and respect nature should be an example for all.
Warm greetings.

Dear Melissa & Co,
Having returned and readjusted to our 'normal' lives, we just wanted to say thank you all for such a lovely stay at Leopard Mountain. We really had a terrific time and made some great memories! The Lodge and its setting were very beautiful and relaxing and we appreciated all the effort you and the rest of the staff made to ensure our stay was special.

Best of luck to you all and hope to return again sometime.

Hi guys and girls, thank you so much for your hospitality but most of all for just being you.
If it wasn't for you, and I speak specifically of Melissa, Linda, Johan and Rylie, my home from home experience would not have been etched in my mind for a lifetime. You 4 are more than fantastic.
Thank you personally from the bottom of my heart for all the effort you put into the welcome and the ambience in a very "magical" place on earth, you are all very special young people, and LM can be very proud of you.
I look forward to bringing my wonderful hubby along sometime in the near future to appreciate the wonderful experience I have had with you and your awesome chef, of course.
Thank you again and this is not goodbye, but can't wait to see you again soon.

Hi Leopard Mountain Team,
Thanks to all of you for your attention and dedication to your work this past weekend, ie spoiling your guests. You are real experts at doing this. From our arrival and greeting from Linda to the game drives with Ruaan, Johann and Rylie and the smiling faces at dinner with you all and Zee, the total experience for Carole and I was awesome. We really enjoyed our stay at Leopard Mountain. The food was excellent, the service was top class and the enthusiasm and knowledge of the guys on the game drives was great to experience.
Leopard Mountain team can pride itself on what they do and they and the lodge do not have to stand back for any of the "recognized" lodges. Leopard Mountain gives the impression of being a happy family enjoying what they do and working together.
We also really enjoyed the diversity of the reserve. My favourites were the river sections with the big trees and the mountainous sections. The game viewing was better than a lot of lodges we have been to in the past. The view from the lodges was fantastic. Sitting on the deck watching kudu and nyala in the river bed was a bonus.
Thanks again for everything and keep up the excellent work. Keep well.
Tony and Carole

hi guys. Sorry its taken so long but unfortunately the daily grind of normality has taken its toll. Just wanted to drop a line to thank you all so much for an amazing week 3-8th Aug as part of Laura and Jake's wedding party. You treated each and everyone of us to an incredible experience. Thanks to those of you on the front line (melissa, lynda, reilly, rouaan and johan) and those behind the scenes who worked so hard to ensure our stay was memorable. I will definately be back as soon as possible.
With love from the UK

Dear Melissa
I would just like to commend you and your team on an incredible weekend. Ulli and I both feel like we have been away for a whole week, instead of just two nights. Each member of your team played their part perfectly and we cannot fault your service.
Thanks again for making our anniversary so memorable, we will definitely return in the future!
Kind regards
Lauren
PS is there any chance your chef would be willing to part with his recipe for his delicious mushroom and biltong soup – its Ulli's birthday next month and I'd like to make it for a dinner party I'm throwing for him.
17thof August2010
Thank you very much. We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay and must commend you guys on the effort and personal touch that each one of you had made. That is what made our stay memorable. We will definitely be coming back !!
Thanks again.. we will be back when its greener !

Hi Nicky,
We would like to thank you for a fantastic 2 nights we spent at your lodge. The setting is amazing, the food was great as was your selection of wine.
I felt like we had been able to rest for much longer that the short stay we spent with your fantastic staff. I have been to a number of lodges over the years and can honestly say that this last weekend was one of the best.
Nothing appeared to inconvenience the rangers nor the delightful ladies handling front of desk. The game drive we did was great (although my camera decided to pack up!) as was the few hours spent at the hide.
We will certainly be back.
Best regards
Simon & Tiffany

To the full Leopard Mountain team,
It was a stunning weekend which we all thoroughly enjoyed to the fullest. Please pass on our thanks to all and I will certainly be continuing to recommend the lodge to all my brides that are looking for a unique bush setting for their wedding.
Thanks so much and I will see you all at the beginning of August for the first wedding – which I know is going to be fantastic for the couple!
Keep well and thank you once again.

Dear All,
We have been telling our friends and neighbours about our love affair with Leopard Mountain Lodge. We have as a family been to quite a lot of private game lodges in South Africa and you can hold your head up high as you rank among the best. What superb hospitality – you excelled in every way – and exceeded our expectations!!
Yes, you will definitely see us again.
Kind regards from the Swiss family and Salt Rock family

Thank you for the lovely email. We both had such a fantastic time at Leopard Mountain, which was all down to the amazing people that work there, we both have very fond memories of Sam, Rylie and Ruaan (it's great to meet people who are prepared to go that extra mile) We hope that one day we will be able to make a return journey ... Reality has of course now hit hard, unfortunately I am now back at work! We both truly enjoyed our experience in South Africa and hope to return one day............

Dear Melissa,
May I say thank you to you and all your staff for a most enjoyable, if brief, stay at Leopard Mountain Game Lodge. Ken and I had a fabulous time. We thought the accommodationwas well thought out and very comfortable, the food was excellent and the staff were welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. The game drives were good fun andalthough some of the bigger game was a little shy, we thoroughly enjoyed being out in the bush with Johann. All in all, we couldn't fault anything so thank you for your very kind hospitality.
As we mentioned when we met, we have been looking for a good four star lodge to fill a gap in our database andwe will have no hesitation in recommending the lodge to those of our travellers visiting KZN and looking for a superb bush experience at four star rather than five star price levels.
With best wishes.

Thank you all for a wonderful stay. We thoroughly enjoyed it and will have amazing pics and memories of your lodge and the bush. Yesterday was a perfect day from the drive with Ruan to the elephants, the elephants themselves, the game drive and sundowners with Johan late yesterday, to the lovely dinner outside last night. (only to have been better, had SA won the soccer!)
Regards to everybody and please thank everybody at the lodge. We will definitely see you again in the future.

Hi Melissa, and team of wonderful staff :)
Thanks for the email and, again, many thanks for the amazing weekend. Geoff & I had such a lovely weekend and your Lodge is special, made more so by the staff.
I really look forward to receiving updates from your "Leopard's Tail" - and will definitely have to try some of the tasty recipes. The food at the Lodge was soooo delicious, many compliments to the Chef.
Hopefully I'll havelots ofbookings for you - it certainly makes itmuch easier to sell a lodge / destination once it's been experienced.
With Kind regards Marilyn Strydom

Hi Melissa, Johan and Ruan
Just a quick note from Noel and myself to say thanks again for such wonderful stay at Leopard Mountain Lodge.
Although it is very nice to see "big'' game , we really appreciated the time that Johan and Ruan took to make the game drives really really interesting. There is so much more to the bush and every game drive left us wanting more!!
We would also like to compliment the chef, who is very talented and obviously knows good food. His chocolate tart was to DIE for!
We had the most wonderful time and felt quite sad when we had to leave, which is a good sign! It rained so in Cape Town, that the pilot had to abort the landing here, diverted us to PE, refueled and flew back ..to clear skies!! THEN we wanted to move to Hluhluwe like you can't believe!!
Kind Regards

Greetings from Craig and Dona
Thank you all for an excellent 4 days. Let me tell you something. All of you deserve a big big round of applause and a huge bonus!!!! Both of us were amazed at the extremely high levels of service you all offered. We live in a country where service levels are very poor and to find people who care so much is such a pleasure.
Our special anniversary private dinner was fantastic. Nicolene, a big well done to you. Nothing was too much to ask. Riaan, you sir have a very special quality - You share your knowledge of the bushveld with your clients and make every game drive special.
All of you should be awarded a Special Service Award. Please make sure the owners of the lodge are aware of our thoughts for us
I have owned my own business since 1998 and have hired and fired more staff than I wish to mention. You people are top of the pops!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Leopard Mountain
I want to say a big thank you to all of you, Rudolph, Johann, Linda, Charl & Hilke for an absolutely fantabulous weekend. Charl, we really appreciate the extra effort that you made for our vegetarian diet.....it was scrumptous. We were very sad to leave.
I am sure that the Viviers family is aware of how blessed they are to have such a dedicated, warm and friendly team to manage their gem. Our chalet was simply amazing and Seelen cannot stop talking about his special evening for his birthday. It was really amazing. Thank you.
We have spoken about your lodge to just about every person that we met since and told them that if they want to experience a little part of paradise that they "must " visit your lodge.
Well done on an excellent job and see you sooooon.
Regards Seelen and Sanusha Naid
