About this property

Lion House @ggconservation for lion and nature lovers

Lion House is a 3 bedroom, self contained cottage set within the world famous GG Conservation Wildlife reserve and Lion Sanctuary housing 70+ magnificent lions! You are never more than 5 metres away from a lion at Lion House!! The whole lion experience is what you get here, as you have lions right outside your door!

At Lion House you are guaranteed to experience the surround sound of up to 70+ lions 'chatting' to each other, an experience like no other on earth, especially the night time roars! Forget the outside world here and indulge in the quiet and stillness of Mother Earth, listen to natures chorus of birds, and soak up the true spirit of Africas wildlife. There is also wifi for those of you who need to keep in touch with the outside world.
The amenities are self catering with a full kitchen, and also a great outside patio for relaxing on, sipping your favourite sundowner and viewing the lions up close. The patio also has braai/BBQ areas for outside dining. Lion House also has a beautiful log fire inside, perfect for getting cosy on those cool winter evenings.
Lots of game are free ranging our land including zebra, ostrich, springbok, gemsbok (oryx) bontebok, waterbuck, black wildebeest and impala with amazing photographic opportunities galore! A game drive can be arranged at extra cost on request.
Magnificent walks possible in the surrounding nature reserve, containing our very own mountain Bakerskop, which is also available for hiking.

***GG Lions NPC is a non profit charity and your whole booking fees directly benefit the GG lions***
