The sweeping view of the Drakensberg Mountains will render you speechless!! The staff, from the owner (Vaughn), front desk, ladies that so graciously cleaned our bungalow and delivered breakfast were first class. During a month long stay in various parts of South Africa, Berghouse was by far the most memorable!

Berghouse and Cottages is a tranquil and beautiful spot. The cottage we stayed in was really cosy and comfortable with eveything we needed. The breakfast was brought to the cottage in the morning and was gorgeously presented and delicious. We enjoyed several walks and a horse ride on the property and Royal Natal is close enough for longer hikes. We found the owners and staff polite and engaging. No review would be complete without a mention of the silently munching Shetland ponies who can't fail to raise a smile or a chuckle.

We loved our three night stay at Berghouse . We chose the self catering option which worked perfectly for us and the kitchen had everything we needed. The view from our cottage was amazing and we looked directly onto the Amphitheatre. It is so close to other resorts such as the Cavern and the Royal Natal park so we managed a walk in both of these areas while we were there, which was wonderful. Ie it is a perfect venue from which to explore the Northern Drakensberg which is magnificent. We had wonderful weather luckily but it was fun in the evenings as it was fairly chilly to we enjoy a fire in our room most evenings.

We stayed in Thula Thula cottage and opted for the breakfast and dinner package (Thula Thula is not self catering, other cottages are) and the food was very good. One of the friendly staff brings it to your cottage each morning and evening which allows you the freedom to relax and soak up the exceptional mountain views at the best parts of the day. There are a number of good places to visit and planning a lunch outing is highly recommended. Berghouse and Cottages is must if you want to visit this incredibly beautiful part of South Africa.

We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at Berghouse and cottages. The view is magnificent, the cottage well equipped and comfy and the service great. We had breakfast and dinner delivered to our room, which was a real treat, and the food was delicious! There is plenty to do for the those who want an active holiday experience, but we chose to just chill and appreciate the sights and sounds around us. We went home happy and refreshed!

Our cottage was lovely and had everything we needed for a relaxing two-night stay. Our booking came with both breakfast and dinner. The food was delicious and they included excellent vegetarian options for our daughter. The surrounding area is beautiful—we enjoyed a hike on the property and also visited the Royal Natal National Park. We'll definitely return.

A very cozy cottage with a beautiful scenic view of the Drakensberge. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone that wants to experience the beauty of the Drakensberge.

Excellent. Strongly recommend

I had the best time at Berghouse and Cottages. I enjoyed the dinner and the views were spectacular. The cottages had everything we needed from glasses to teacups and wood for the fireplace. Best place ever for tranquility.

Thank you for our wonderful stay in the Thula 2 cottage. Waking up to those views was spectacular! We loved that so much, that we eventually slept with the curtains open. Falling asleep watching the silhouetted mountain being lit up by lightning. The staff were always friendly and complied to the COVID regulations. The meals were delicious and the portions were very generous. We definitely recommend these when staying here. One of our delights was the infinity rockpool, with fantastic views to enjoy while swimming! A real get away from the madness of Johannesburg! We definitely will be coming back!

Beautiful and peaceful

What a beautiful place to stay. If you are looking for a retreat from your normal busy life and need a place to recharge your batteries, this is it.

We LOVED this place ! We were so lucky to get a last-minute booking for two nights over New Year's Eve. Chantal and Vaughn were so helpful and friendly as were all the staff. Breakfast was DIVINE and delivered to us each morning. The views are unbeatable ! from our cottage as well as the stunning pool at the top of the resort. There are marked trails for mountain bike riding as well as hikes. Will definitely return with friends and family !

This has got to be one of the most special places along the Northern Drakensberg! The views are epic, you won't find any better!! My favorite part was enjoying a sun-downer in the rock pool looking onto the magnificent Amphitheatre. The property is also located very close to a golf course, Sterkfontein Dam and the Royal Natal National Park; plenty of activities! The friendly owners live on the property and were on hand to help us with any queries we had. A friend and I were planning on hiking the Amphitheatre the next morning and the family couldn't assist enough with directions, maps, advice etc. Wonderful stay and I would highly recommend!!
