    Brilliant location. Please note we booked the Rondavel and somehow there was a double booking. Without a moment of hesitation the establishment offered us the Studio which is where we stayed.

    The area is nothing short of spectacular!! Rhino Peak pokes you in the eye it is so close. Numerous hiking options abound. The rondavel is cozy. The thatch roof and the structural framing supporting it is a great study as you lay in the...

Add some adventure and romance to your holiday with a packed picnic hamper to enjoy in our giant heart in the field, down by the river, or packed away to take on a hike. Alternatively, cozy up under the stars with our stargazing hamper, complete with sweet and salty snacks, a selection of wine, and a warm beverage. The best way to enjoy the country side. Catered breakfast and dinner can be accommodated for with advanced notice and an additional cost. Comfortable mud and thatch hut with covered veranda and braai looking out onto the famous Rhino peak and Drakensberg mountain range. Hikers paradise in walking distance to Ezemvelo wild life hiking trails and perhaps a lazy day picnicking down at the river. Early in the morning expect a visit to some grazing Eland, or watch them graze in the field below. If you're lucky snow may fall on the mountains and you can take a quick drive to Castle burn to play in it. A venture out in the car takes you to various restaurants in the vicinity, horse riding, golf, trout fishing to name a few. Forty minute drive to Sani Pass gets you an expedition into Lesotho. This piece of Paradise awaits your visit.
We are located 30km from Underberg down the paved Drakensberg Gardens road. In our immediate area you will find a plethora of activities to do on site, or to explore. On site you can order a picnic basket and have it set up down by the river, in the field, or even just on your veranda. And if it isn't too chilly at night, you can order a stargazing package, filled with snacks, hot coco, blankets, and more. Down the road you can drive Ukuhalmba Drakensberg Transfronteir park and hike to 3 different caves, or just enjoy the beauty of nature. Gooderson Drakensberg Gardens Resort is right up the road with a beautiful 18 hole golf course, putt putt, 3 restaurants, and a spa that all can be accessed with a day visitors fee. Across the road you can hire a horse ride, or a small row boat for fly fishing. You and your party will never be short of activities to do!
