The service, security, the location of the lodge, comfort, peace and beauty of the lodge, the personal touch the is handed to customers, their patience and the openness policy . I was made to feel welcomed
South AfricaThis place was magical and so interesting. We had no expectations booking a quick stopover in Ladysmith but we got here and it was like a museum of historical facts and relics while also being a luxurious accommodation overlooking the town. I can't say enough good things about this place. We were upgraded to a larger room which was just stunning in its decor with a balcony to watch the sunset and thunderstorm from. The pub on site was incredible and the honour system made it so relaxed and enjoyable. If it were winter, you could easily spend a whole day in there. The breakfast was also wonderful and the staff were amazing. We had a lengthy chat with the manager who told us all about the area, South Africa, it's history and the wildlife. I would highly recommend staying here. Our only regret was that we had onward plans and couldn't stay a second night.
CanadaWow, the premises are beautiful, scenery and view was mind blowing, the furniture, wow. To top it off, the staff is always friendly and eager to help.
South AfricaThe Honsety bar is honestly a new experience . Definitely coming back again
South AfricaThe hostess was very friendly and informative. My room has a superb view of the sun setting over the Drakensberg.
South AfricaBig and comfy rooms! Good service from staff and the manager.
United States of AmericaEvery effort was made to make us feel at home. The staff were super-friendly and the accommodation was spotless. I would highly recommend this as a stop over to Durban.
South AfricaThe lodge was the perfect base from which to explore the battlefields surrounding the Ladysmith area. We simply adored the variety of historical artefacts on display, especially the boer war memorabilia in the little pub. The breakfasts were beautifully cooked to order every day, and our room was supremely comfortable and clean. Great attention to detail.
