Reilly's Rock Hilltop Lodge

Reilly's Rock is situated on Mlilwane Game Sanctuary in the Lobamba area just below Ezulwini Valley. The turn-off to the dirt road leading to Mlilwane is 500m past the entrance to eLudzidzini Palace if driving from Ezulwini on the main road.

Formally the home of Mickey Reilly, one of Eswatini's earliest white settlers (Formerly Swaziland) and a highly entrepreneurial man, the house has remained in the family and in the mid-1990’s was transformed into a unique hilltop lodge tastefully decorated in keeping with its colonial roots by Eswatini's conservation team, Ted and Liz Reilly. Notwithstanding the necessary subtle additions and renovations, the house still stands as it was built almost a century ago. Reilly’s Rock is steeped in intriguing history, the main building was built of stone in exchange for an ox-wagon in the early 1900’s, encompassing Eswatini, conservation in the Kingdom and the Reilly family.

The original house has four en-suite bedrooms, all accessible form the veranda. Separate from the house is the cottage encircled by a wide veranda comprising of two en-suite rooms with a communal lounge and fireplace.
