On arrival we were offered an upgrade to a suite (free), which was well equipped for our needs. Well located property with really pretty, well maintained garden areas. There is an infinity pool for residents’ use. The lodge itself is very impressive with some great features, including a thatched roof. As part of our deal, breakfast was included, but we also to chose to dine there each evening of our stay. There was a good choice of cold and hot food items for breakfast. Evening meals were good (hence we ate there each night !) and there were choices available. Restaurant Manageress, Princess, was welcoming. We saw a bit of the owners, Kerry, Ant & Ryan who were very friendly, offering up suggestions for things to do during our stay. Overall a great stay in the Drakensberg.

    Wonderful place for a medium- to long-term getaway! Friendly reception, very clean and comfy accommodation with all amenities including a double(!) shower. Stunning view (if it isn't too hazy ;) and the ponies come up in the morning for a pat (and if you are not careful, to nibble on the things on your breakfast table...) We went for the breakfast and dinner option, which was delivered to the doorstep hot and on time, with a lot of love and attention going into the tasty food and its presentation.

    The setting was beautiful and the grounds so well maintained. The rooms were exceptionally comfortable in every way. The staff were welcoming on check in, and wherever we were, they were friendly, courteous and helpful. The food was exceptional and we couldn’t find any aspect of our stay that could have been improved on.

    Theres plenty to do and see, its a real destination. A few days here melt away in the mountains. Especially great if you enjoy hiking and being outdoors. Food options range from independent restaurants to grand resort buffets and be sure to try Chocolate memories of you have a sweet tooth. Its pretty much a one road tourist town and is super easy to navigate. It's where I run whenever I get a free weekend.

    Bergville is 'n pragtige plekkie. Soos met alle plekke in Suid Afrika tans, is die pad na en van Berville, vol slaggate en so ook in die dorp. Dit ten spyt, is dit die moeite werd om daarlangs te reis.

    We had such a lovely time, from the accommodation, the staff, the food and surroundings were great. The only problem we had was that our shower was leaking in the bathroom, and the whole bathroom was under water. but the staff moved us to another room, the shower did not leak, but all the tiles was loose in this bathroom as well. Just think the bathrooms needs some maintenance

    There are several resorts and a number of smaller accommodations in this picturesque valley, a hotspot for nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts. It is close to the famous Sani Pass, where 4X4 enthusiasts can ascend one of the highest and most scenic trails in Southern Africa. The town has charming shops and eateries, and many of the resorts offer a host of activities, restaurants and outdoor adventure options.
