Was delicious!
Beautiful view over the valley, you are truly in the mountains. It's pretty modern and feels very special with a nice bed and nice linen, lovely big gas heater and tasteful wooden furniture inside. Kitchen is well equipped with gas appliances (no microwave due to solar power) with a good layout. Nice big windows for a view of the mountains from your bed. Outside is a nice hammock, braai area with 'fire pit' and braai. Then there is another nice dining table and a wind-sheltered bench with nice cushions next to the 'hot tub' on the deck. Lukas, the manager, helped us start the distillery and also built 'steps' for our old ones to get in and out of the bath more easily. Everything was great except the wood which is really poor quality and hard to burn. Apparently purchased and quite expensive. Definitely bring your own wood if they still haven't changed 'burn'. There is also a 3.2 km walking trail that starts at Cape Canary, where we stayed. We stayed two nights and it was a lovely break, torrential rain notwithstanding. Would definitely recommend, was exactly what I wanted.

Awesome. Our unit was very private. We had a whole big farm pond all to ourselves. Cottage well furnished. We were just afraid to make fire. The fire area was not well sheltered. The wind blew a little. With all the recent wildfires, we were just being careful. I would really like to stay there again.

Neat and well laid out. From the wooden deck with 'hot-tub' and comfortable couch you can lose yourself in the breathtaking scenery. We were received kindly and if needed just a phone call away. We had a great time relaxing - here you can come and breathe. Thank you Leopard Valley Eco Retreat for the beautiful stay in your 'pods'. It's in nature - so take the necessary precautions against the elements (insect cream, sunscreen).

Leopard Valley Eco Retreat 's response
Dear Gretna, we are very sorry to hear about your experience during your stay.
Our grounds are not fenced off in efforts to allow free roaming to wildlife in the beautiful valley. In saying that, we do understand that this might seem unsafe to visitors. But we do have 24/7 security patrolling the roads.
The gate is locked at night, and we have security cameras on the property.
Thank you again for highlighting things we need to look at.

Romantic and intimate getaway.
Modern, clean and very tidy. The layout of the cottage offers privacy and is perfectly laid out for a romantic and intimate getaway. The candles and lanterns around the hot tub, the extra warm blanket and heater are all thoughtful "extras" that make the stay that much more comfortable and special. The cottage is completely "off-the-grid" and the owners have considered every aspect to be 'eco' and aware of the environment or nature. The cottages are located in a beautiful valley away from the noise and although it was close to a road, only a few vehicles passed by. The sounds of water and birds quickly drowned out the sound of vehicles. I would advise to maybe take Tabard with you because the mosquitoes bit us quite a bit. Other than that, perfect weekend getaway! We will visit again.

Leopard Valley is a lovely getaway in the mountains. The houses are built from "containers" and completely off Eskom power.

What an absolute find in the Citrusdal area. Silence and stars like our family hasn't experienced in a long time, and the added bonus of a fire-heated Jacuzzi. Hammock to read in book, and well appointed unit made from old shipping containers. Interior is modern and well laid out. "Off-the-grid" at its very best! Solar power and WiFi with lovely vistas over the mountains.

There is not much wood available. The wood fire bathtub uses quite a bit of wood because it's nice and big. Other than that we can't complain, amazing location and weather we had.
