Enveloped by South Africa, Lesotho is the only country situated entirely above 1,000 m, earning it the nickname ‘Kingdom in the Sky’. Despite being nestled between Durban and Bloemfontein, this country within a country still marches to the beat of its own drum, with the Basotho Village showcasing Lesotho’s strong cultural identity. One way to take in the traditions of the locals is to join a highland trek on a Basotho pony, where you’ll pass by typical rondavels (round huts with a cone-shaped roof) and endless rolling countryside. Be sure to take in the stunning sight of Maletsunyane Falls near Semonkong – the highest waterfall in southern Africa. The country is also famous for its ancient sights, such as centuries-old rock paintings and dinosaur footprints in areas near Moyeni and Morija. Apart from hiking, you can enjoy canoeing and adventurous 4x4 excursions, as well as skiing in Oxbow in the winter season. The best selection of hotels and guest houses can be found in the capital city of Maseru, so its best to make this your base when you stay.

The whole crew is very warmhearted. Rooms are so clean. "Captains Breakfast" was awesome at the NO7. It was also a bonus to watch the kids have fun playing soccer on the field right next door.

Guest review
Everything! The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful and go out their way to never say no! Management was very accommodating and visible. The room looked much better than the pictures and was very clean. All the amenities necessary was provided in the room with a bonus plate of chocolates. The bed was comfortable! Overall, the Anne guest house was outstanding! There is honestly not enough space for me to write all the compliments I have for this guest house.
