📍 Woodlands Farm on the R600 between Ladysmith and Winterton, Bergville

"WE WENT THERE TO CELEBRATE OUR 56TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY. OLD BUILDING BUT EXCELLENT AMBIANCE AND NICE SHADED PARKING. THE ROOM WAS HUGE AND THE SHOWER WAS GOOD WITH NICE HOT WATER. THE BEST PART OF OUR STAY WERE THE EXCELLENT DINNERS WITH STEAK THE FIRST NIGHT AND LAMB CHOPS THE SECOND NIGHT COOKED TO PERFECTION. LOVELY THREE COURSE MEAL. WE FURTHER ENJOYED OUR OUTING TO THE SPIOENKOP BATTLEFIELD WHICH IS ABOUT 30KMS FROM THE LODGE."

Cathedral Peak Hotel ★★★★

📍 R394 Cathedral Peak Hotel Cathedral Peak, Gaints Castle Game Reserve

"Absolutely the best stay we have ever had! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming and attentive. The special touches they arranged for our honeymoon made our stay even more memorable and meant so much to us. Our room was amazing, the food was excellent, and the entire experience was simply exceptional. There is honestly nothing we could fault. Cathedral Peak Hotel exceeded all our expectations, and we cannot wait to return. Highly recommended! "

Cayley Mountain Resort
8.4 (48 reviews)

Cayley Mountain Resort ★★★★

📍 D184, Cathkin Park

"I went here for my mother's 40th birthday with a large group of family and u can say that the experience was amazing. I enjoy the Drakensburg very much because of the mountains and the simplistic nature if things. I am a city girl at heart but I loved staying here as it was a modernised mountain stay if that makes sense. Accommodation was beautiful I had fun playing putput and the table tennis and it was overall just a pleasing experience."

Nauntons Guest House & Wedding Venue
9.2 (165 reviews)

Nauntons Guest House & Wedding Venue ★★★★

📍 N11 Newcastle Road, Ladysmith

"An excellent overnight stop or even a short stay. Nothing to difficult for owners. We were booked to stay on a Saturday night in July. We realized enroute that we would arrive around 10am and decided to phone and find out if we could postpone our booking till 23 Aug. Absolutely no prob, it was done. Then we left Kruger 3 days early so phoned them again to find out if we could change booking to 21 Aug. No problem. Thanks to them there are not many Guest Homes that would be so accommodating. Well done. Food also delicious. Ample safe parking even if you towing a caravan."

Aha Alpine Heath Resort
8.6 (43 reviews)

Aha Alpine Heath Resort ★★★★

📍 D119 Jagersrust Northern Drakensberg, Bergville

"From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by the most breathtaking mountain views and peaceful atmosphere. The resort is beautifully maintained, the units are spacious and comfortable, and everything is thoughtfully designed to make you feel relaxed and at home. The attention to detail truly stood out — from the warm hospitality to the little extras that made our stay feel so special. There is so much to do for families, yet it still feels calm and restorative. It’s the perfect balance between fun and rest. For our family, this was more than just a weekend away. It was a much-needed break in a challenging season of life, and the memories we made there will stay with us forever. Watching my children laugh, explore, and just be carefree in such a safe and beautiful environment meant the world to me. If you are looking for a place to truly unwind, reconnect, and breathe again, Alpine Heath is a gem in the Drakensberg. We will cherish this experience for years to come."

Little Switzerland Resort by Dream Resorts
8.6 (50 reviews)

Little Switzerland Resort by Dream Resorts ★★★★

📍 R74 Oliviershoek Pass Northern Drakensberg, Bergville

"This is another stunning place to choose from. Drakensberg has so much variety. You get confused when it comes making a choice of where to stay. A night or two in this beautiful hotel will be worth it. It also has stunning views. Staff was helpful"

Mont Aux Sources Drakensberg Resort
8.3 (4 reviews)

Mont Aux Sources Drakensberg Resort ★★★

📍 off R74, Bergville

"I booked three chalets (from Australia for family reunion in SA after 3 years) for 27 -29 December 2024 which turned out to be a disaster. Late check in (4-5 hours late), rooms were not cleaned, and toilet was not working. No wifi. I almost wanted to book an additional night or two, however did not. There was no offer to compensate the poor service and mismanagement of this facility, nor refund for delays and poor facilities. It's a pity that such a beautiful location is mismanaged and misrepresented. Trust and service will take time to re-build. Your future is not good."

The Nest Drakensberg Mountain Resort Hotel
7.9 (47 reviews)

The Nest Drakensberg Mountain Resort Hotel ★★★

📍 Drakensberg, R600, Ardmore

"Had a wonderful few days with family. Accommodation, food and service were all of a very high standard."

Ardmore Guest Farm
9.1 (43 reviews)

Ardmore Guest Farm ★★★★

📍 122 Champagne Valley Rd, Bergville

"Charming farm setting. Rustic, but still comfortable. Easy access to highlights of the Drakensberg, but also a nice place to rest in itself. Friendly staff and nice, farm fresh meals."

Sandford Park Country Hotel Hotels in Uthukela DC

Sandford Park Country Hotel

"Faded glory on this site, which is truly terribly poorly maintained. A green water pool with broken furniture and peeling paint. Everything smelled musty. Bathroom with mold, missing tiles, and a broken toilet seat. The only positive thing was the service from the staff. We were supposed to stay 2 nights but moved on after 1 night. Don't go here!"

Gooderson Monks Cowl Golf Resort Hotels in Uthukela DC

Gooderson Monks Cowl Golf Resort

"Gooderson Monks is a family friendly resort, well equipped for children. The Chalet was clean and well stocked."

Dragon Peaks Mountain Resort Hotels in Uthukela DC

Dragon Peaks Mountain Resort

"The bed was caving in. The toilet keeps running. The shower keeps dripping the entire night. To turn the hot water off, you need to be a body builder. Fix the faucet. The TV worked for 3 hours and didn't work again for the rest of our stay. Please ask customers if they want a maid to come in as to not be intrusive of space. There are customers who prefer no interruptions to their stay! I am not being difficult, but these are simple quality of life improvements which must be rectified. Also, where we stayed we were not informed that we were not getting a veranda. The empty units next to us all had verandas. Please inform your customers of these little changes to their units as these make a big difference at the end of the day! "

"We went for a Christmas Lunch the food was so tasteless, the only thing I enjoyed was the starters. Whooo the buttered chicken was terrible. The only thing that was better on their main meal was the pork and lamb the rest was horibble. I just wasted my money what Ana awful. Christmas I had😔"

Nambiti Plains Hotels in Uthukela DC

Nambiti Plains

"We recently spent 3 nights at Nambiti Plains in July 2026, and we cannot recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, we were absolutely blown away. The location is fantastic, and the rooms and surrounding views are quite literally breathtaking. The Safari Experience: A massive highlight of our trip was our guide, Cait, nicknamed "Cait the Great"! She is extremely knowledgeable and went above and beyond to ensure every single game drive was unforgettable. She really did her absolute best to track down the specific animals we were hoping to see. We also had the pleasure of meeting Jono and Danzel, who were fantastic game drivers as well. The Lodge & Hospitality The entire staff was amazing and made us feel so incredibly welcome. A huge thank you to: - Magdel and Bettie, who run the lodge seamlessly and ensure every guest has a perfect stay. - Cindy, Mobasa, and Precious, who took phenomenal care of us in the main lodge and kept our room immaculate. - Roy and Siyanda, who kept us well-fed from the kitchen! Pro Tip: If you ask Roy nicely, he might just treat you to some extra culinary surprises! We definitely recommend booking at least a 3-night stay to fully soak in everything this wonderful place has to offer. It was the perfect amount of time to relax and see the wildlife. If we are ever lucky enough to travel back to South Africa, Nambiti Plains will undoubtedly be the very first stop on our list. Thank you to the whole team for a trip of a lifetime!"

Memra Guest House Hotels in Uthukela DC

Memra Guest House

"We booked in for 2 nights on the 23rd and 24th of September. Our host Magda was warm and welcoming even at a 23h00 check in. She was so obliging and walked down to the guest room with milk, tea, sugar and coffee in hand to check us in. The room, kitchenette and bathroom was exceptionally clean. We were never asked for payment at any stage of our stay. I would highly recommend Memra Regards Charlton "

"Beautiful part of the country. Adequate accommodation. Peaceful setting. Relaxing atmosphere. There is a Day Spa, a convenience store, restaurant and bar, and numerous fun facilities for entertaining the entire family. Unfortunately, the beach area was being furbished when we visited."

"The guesthouse is nice and close to the industrial area with quick access to the N11. The farm environment is nice and relaxing after work and the hosts are friendly and helpful. The room is clean and nice to stay in. the added breakfast was very "lekker" and would recommend eating in. "

Little Switzerland Resort by Dream Resorts ★★★★
"This is a pleasant hotel with some fabulous views. The bedroom was spacious and comfortable. There's a bar with TV showing sports / whatever is requested and a small spa; the massages were very good. The building is a little dated in some respects and while there was a fairly wide variety of food on offer, the quality was often not that great. Staff were all helpful."

Mont Aux Sources Drakensberg Resort ★★★
"We had a very good stay here - the staff were attentive, food good, chalets very clean. Fabulous location and walking. Only improvement would be start the hot tubs earlier - book them the day before so they are hot when you get back - and stir the water up. But great fun."

The Nest Drakensberg Mountain Resort Hotel ★★★
"This was the umpteenth time I have been part of a group of colleagues, friends, gathering to relax, reminisce or celebrate an anniversary. In May 2025, (now), our group comprised most members of the Natal University Athletics Club in 1968-69 (most ran the Comrades marathon back then.) The relaxed happy ambience of The Nest was exactly what such fellowship needed to celebrate. During the days we made use of the many local amenities available; Falcon Ridge, Drakensberg Boys Choir, Craft Beer Tasting, and walks on the grounds of The Nest. My wife and I, within a group or alone, will certainly return - probably many times; because as pensioners the tariffs are also extremely honest."

Ardmore Guest Farm ★★★★
"We had a lovely stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Special shout out to Mandoza and Ross! We stayed over Christmas and were treated to an amazing five course lunch. Food was really good in general. Due to the rain in the area it was a bit muddy at the farm but the kids loved feeding the various animals and having a pony ride. The dirt road to the farm was drivable in a polo even with the wet conditions. Rooms were well cleaned daily."
