Welcome to Long Lee Manor - Refined elegance from a bygone era

Long Lee Manor was built in 1910 by the descendants of William Foulds, one of the early settlers from York in England. Lovingly restored and expanded, this gracious Edwardian mansion has the feel of a country manor, located in the African bush where you will experience the style of living of a past era, with uncompromising service.

Long Lee Manor overlooks the Bushman's River Valley. The Sidbury Wing is hidden from the manor house. The french doors open onto the rolling river meadows. Each spring (October) the palm trees in Palm Court are alive with weaver birds nesting.

Long Lee Manor accommodates 38 guests in elegant en-suite bedrooms, all with air-conditioning and underfloor heating.

Sumptuously prepared meals are enjoyed in the main dining room or around the open blazing fire at the Barn. An extensive range of African curios and branded clothing is sold at the curio shop at Long Lee Manor. Between game drives guests can laze around one of the two pools, play an invigorating game of tennis on the floodlit court or relax in the beautifully appointed garden lounge.

Activities from Long Lee Manor include morning and evening game drives or walking safaris, accompanied by your personal ranger. Shamwari Game Reserve prides itself on the knowledge and professionalism of their rangers. Long Lee Manor is a reminder of an era of gracious living - positioned as the flagship of Shamwari - it overlooks the sweeping plains leading down to the Bushmans River.
