Guest review
It was a fantastic place, our room had beautiful views over The Buffalo river that separated Zululand from Natal. The food was lovely and Cindy who looked after us was lovely. She found us a fantastic guide for the battlefields. Whilst we were there, the main building got struck by lightning which must have been very frightening for the staff. In spite of that and having no electricity they still managed to deliver supper to our room.

Lodge was really fabulous but surpassed by the wonderful staff and the remarkable safari guides. Facility is on a private reserve and the lodges all communicate so one never felt crowded when seeing the animals. Never more than 3 vehicles at any one site.

Stayed at Kwakunje Guest Lodge as it was right next door to Talana Museum. We did the tour of the Battle of Talana Hill (I only made it halfway up the hill due to my being so unfit) There was an arts and crafts at the Museum, bought a book, marmalade and honey. Lunch at Miners Rest. Just up the road at Battlefields Lodge for Dinner. Into town and I think the best Pizza I have had at Jeff's Service Station, cannot remember the actual name of the place. Took that back to the lodge and had beer and pizza under the communal area where you can braai. I loved every minute of our stay. Friday to Sunday.

there was very little that impressed me and certainly not value for money. roads to the resort are terrible with many potholes . weekend buffet was really good but a la carte for the rest of the week is mediocre with some items not available. the complete resort needs a revamp . no effort is made to entertain guests hot pools were really good but there should have been refreshments available nearby ( 300m ) to get a cooldrink.

People visit Rorkes Drift to see and walk the Zulu War battlefields, and this B & B is THE place from which to do so. A great kitchen! Breakfast included! Stunning views of the Buffalo River, and it's run by the Khula School/David Rattray Foundation that runs 20 +/- schools from Pre-K to HS, Well worth your visit!

I feel so incredibly honoured to have been the first guest to book at Hi Boutique. From the moment we arrived the friendly staff ensured that we were comfortably settled in. The rooms are beautifully decorated and very comfortable. the location is perfect, being so conveniently close to shopping centres and lovely eating venues. The breakfast area is also beautifully presented and has such a special ambience. I would highly reccommend Hi Boutique to anyone looking for a comfortable stylish and conveniently located place to stay.

The location of Van Reenen is a) convenient and b) a beautiful part of the world. The scenery is fantastic. The town itself could do with a good lick of paint and a rich and enthusiastic developer of historic buildings. There are a couple of very pretty house which are well looked after. Across the road from the petrol station is "The littlest Church" where we stop for breakfast. Fabulous - both the church, view and breakfast.

It is easy to get around during game drives because there are many internal roads and rugged 4x4s that you travel in. The game drives are incredible - it can get cold in the early morning but so worth it. The staff are next level excellent.
