THE LODGE
The lodge is found on a stunning 300 hectares of land near the foot of the Amphitheatre and Cathedral Peak. The Mpande River weaves through the lands. The lodge is a base from which you can explore different sections and all the highlights of the Drakensberg Park each day. Our qualified guides can take you adventuring and hiking to Lesotho, Amphitheatre/Tugela Falls, Cathedral Peak, Rock Climbing and Abseiling.
Built from stone, thatch and wood, the place is like an artist's sculpture with stained glass, metal and wooden carvings, mosaics and beautiful indigenous rockeries. The loft lounge has a fantastic view over the lodge and Drakensberg.
Some rooms are in converted grain silos, using solar to heat the water and windmill power to pump it. A black pool is made from real Drakensberg rock and there is a barbecue area with a fire pit. The funky bar is a great meeting place for all, with a wonderful range of music, and a jacuzzi in the thick of the action.
There is free use of the sauna and bouldering cave and a wicked array of delicious cocktails on offer - so prepare yourself! Self catering kitchens are fully equipped. Our restaurant serves delicious food. An a-la-carte breakfast and lunch and set 3 course menu for supper. We serve both vegetarians and carnivores!
