The hotel is definitely an experience - the grounds are beautiful, the hotel is steeped in history but still offers modern amenities, and the pub (with home-brewed beers and home-distilled G&T on tap) just rounds off a wonderful stay. The staff are all amazing, and really go the extra mile to make you feel at home. Highly recommended!

    Chalets are really very spacious and modern, equipped with everything one needs. We didn't know what to expect as there are not many photos on booking.com, but the chalets really exceeded all expectations. Huge terasse leading to a big garden. Great views, very fast reliable internet, big clean pool. Nice staff. Really nothing to complain about, it's a great place to stay.

    We had the time of our life. Berghouse and Cottages offers an incredible setting with wonderful views over the mountains. The cottage was very spacious with two showers😎 Bed and couch are both very comfortable. The staff is very nice and we loved the food. There are some activities to do nearby so it was a good balance between relaxing and adventure.

Stunning views to the mountain range, the lake, the Zebras strolling by the house, the hiking opportunities on the estate - literally in your backyard.

    Theres plenty to do and see, its a real destination. A few days here melt away in the mountains. Especially great if you enjoy hiking and being outdoors. Food options range from independent restaurants to grand resort buffets and be sure to try Chocolate memories of you have a sweet tooth. Its pretty much a one road tourist town and is super easy to navigate. It's where I run whenever I get a free weekend.

    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.

    Electricity cut of many times during our stay due to the switch tripping. Drain clogged in shower. Carpets not vacuumed but only swept with a broom, which was evident in our continuous sneezing upon entering the room. Geyser switch tripped on checkout day and therefore we could not shower in our room. Rooms need to be better maintained and cleaned.

    There are several resorts and a number of smaller accommodations in this picturesque valley, a hotspot for nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts. It is close to the famous Sani Pass, where 4X4 enthusiasts can ascend one of the highest and most scenic trails in Southern Africa. The town has charming shops and eateries, and many of the resorts offer a host of activities, restaurants and outdoor adventure options.
