Long Hope Villa is a graciously restored farmhouse set on a secluded location inside a 14 000-hectare private concession area of the Addo Elephant National Park.

Dating back to the early 1900s the villa is a combination of old-world elegance and charm fused with all the modern amenities guests would enjoy and although the villa is owned by Riverbend Lodge, it is situated further away from the lodge.

3 luxurious bedrooms come complete with added extras such as percale linen, soft furnishings and even a pillow library to ensure a sumptuous and exclusive home-away-from-home for guests. Take a stroll along the garden path which leads through an indigenous garden to a private swimming pool, and further along to a sunset deck where you can spend a lazy afternoon relaxing.

Long Hope Villa is makes a perfect safari destination for families or small groups and you’re sure to have a truly memorable experience with your private game ranger taking you on guided game drives or walks.

Other activities on offer include mountain drives and walks, birding trips to view over 300 species of bird in the area, horseback safaris, citrus tours and picnics, elephant encounters, astronomy and cultural and historical excursions. All of these can be enjoyed at your own pace and pleasure.

Long Hope Villa is located in the Addo Elephant National Park in the Eastern Cape of South Africa.
