the breakfast was scrumptious, the hostess was so kind and well-organised, the walks to the river and the garden surrounds were so peaceful. The room was so comfortable and the staff were really accommodating. I even took my Small Dog, and the establishment is very pet friendly! I will be going back!

You cannot beat the location of this hotel. We took an executive suite and had magnificent views of the peaks. But, these views can be seen from many positions within the hotel. The room was perfect. The food is excellent, especially considering that they are producing it in large quantities. Restaurant staff were very attentive. There are many hikes ranging from easy to strenuous and so there's plenty to keep you occupied. They also offer guided walks, horse rides etc. It is my fourth stay here, and I hope I'll return many more times.

Stayed with family of 10 in 5 Bedroom manor. It is a beautiful home in the mountains. Large dining and lounge area with deck overlooking mountains and hot water splash pool. Very well furnished and designed en suite rooms. Very private with Air conditions and fireplace. Have vacationed extensively in the berg with family. This was by far the most comfortable and memorable. The last few kilometres to resort was a bit challenging however if you drive carefully it’s manageable. All the staff were excellent. Congratulations to management.

Our house offered a breathtaking view of the Amphitheater and Tugela River, making it a truly peaceful retreat. The space is comfortable and cozy, with nothing but the soothing sound of birds to be heard. The hospitality and welcome were fantastic, and Heather, the owner, made us feel right at home. A perfect spot for relaxation and enjoying nature’s beauty.

Excellent location so much to do.

Excellent location so much to do. The views were breath taking. People are friendly and welcoming. Excellent facilities. Security was excellent. No medical facilities near by almost stepped on a puff adder while walking on a path. More information on emergencies for snake bites required. Will definitely visit soon. Overall an excellent and magical destination.

Overall, the place gave off "cheap, stingy" vibes.

Overall, the place gave off "cheap, stingy" vibes. Not value for money. We paid R17k for 4 nights at Fairways self catering and could not get fresh towels, the beds are uncomfy, the fireplace didn't work well, there isn't much for the kids to do when it's raining and cold. We booked for dinner only to be told they don't cater for kids and there's no other restaurant open. The jacuzzi temperatures are set way too high and ended up burning my skin. The only heated pool for kids gets too crowded, another heated pool for kids would be great.

We had lunch at the pig and plough, nice menu - slow service, however, we still enjoyed the food and the venue. The Thokozi restaurant and Deli, good food and a nice variety. Sandra se Winkel was an experience - well worth going to when you are in the area.

The various accommodation options make it perfect for couples and families. Huge grounds allow you to get away for some peace and quiet if you want, but we did not feel overwhelmed by people and the place was full. You can either go and feed carrots to the horses or take a short drive to one of the many attractions in the area.
