AMAZING PLACE
"Really nice location, possibility to have small hikes on the property. This is an eco-friendly and Fair Trade location. We could directly book our Sani Pass tour with them. A small restaurant is in charge of the breakfast and dinner offering really good food. The views and stargazing are amazing." * * * * * Julia 2025 Trip Advisor

"A great place at the beginning of Sani Pass Rd. Check-in was quick and easy, instructions were clear, lodging very comfortable and the cafe delicious. Try the halloumi wrap! A wonderful base camp to explore the stunning Drakensburg scenery."
