Had the most wonderful stay at Cybele Lodge. The breakfasts and diner were AWESOME . The rooms homely and bed super comfortable. Hosts Trevor and Andrea went out of there way to make us welcome and we had many hours of chatting and shared many laughs together. Can't wait to go back to this hidden gem amongst the trees to hear the bush babies call at night

A home away from home

We had to travel at short notice over a long weekend, which normally would spell disaster in KZN. I explained our situation to Bev and she bent over backwards to accommodate us - even waiting up for us late into the night. This B&B manages the fine balance between hospitality and privacy. All the rooms have outside access, safe parking and are well appointed, clean and a comfortable size. The breakfast service was a highlight for me. Great food in a beautiful setting. Bev is also on-hand for some fabulous conversation! We will definitely be back.

Unwind by relaxing around the pool or take stroll or run around the leafy neighbourhood. Your hosts, James and Barbara, will assist you in selecting restaurants and other attractions from the excellent range of shops, and activities in the area. We have a number of great natural attractions such as Krantzkloof and Shongweni Nature Reserves as well as Inanda Dam. The popular Saturday's Shongweni Market and the "1000 Hills Experience" with its Zulu culture, arts and crafts are always a great drawcard to visitors . Brackens is within walking distance of the Old Main Road, the route used by the thousands of Comrades runners and Amashova Shova cyclists. With easy access to both N3 and M13 and situated midway between Pietermaritzburg and Durban, it is the ideal stop-over for business and holiday travellers alike.

Comfortable

Reviewed By warreno819

Spent 1 night. The room was comfortable, well proportioned. Gas geysers mean that the hot water is a little difficult to manage but we were told about this as we checked in and it did not prove to be a problem. Breakfast was delicious. Only one complaint is that the plates were cold.

Friar Tuck B & B

A comfortable stay

Reviewed By dsteph460631

A very pleasant stay. Comfortable and clean in a quiet neighborhood. Good privacy and easy safe in and out access. My wife lost her gold watch and the staff found it under the bed and contacted us after we had left. It was really pleasant to deal with such honest and upright staff/management. I would definitely recommend this accommodation.

Wonderful White House

We were welcomed with open arms, I was on crutches and they opened other doors so that I had easy access to my room. Hans was so friendly and a very interesting man to talk to. The gardens were very impressive. It was also so easy to find. We loved the breakfasts and the staff were so friendly

Quick visit

Spent a night at the lodge whilst travelling to Johannesburg from Durban. We were fortunate to have the entire lodge to ourselves and although close to Hillcrest we did feel like we were remote and enjoyed the peace. The facilities were all spotlessly clean and well maintained. The cooked breakfast in the morning was an unexpected extra. Magda the host was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend

Khululeka Lodge

Khululeka Lodge is like a little paradise in central Hillcrest. Set in a garden filled with magnificent trees, we are regularly visited by numerous species of birds. Other than the call of these winged visitors, you are assured of a very peaceful stay. At Khululeka Lodge we offer clean, comfortable, affordable accommodation for up to 18 guests. This is the best option for a relaxed, friendly stay at the gateway to the Valley of 1000 Hills. The main house offers 4 bedrooms & three bathrooms and can comfortably accommodate up to 14 people. The well equipped, shared kitchen makes self-catering the popular choice for our guests. Outdoor, undercover braai facilities also available. Enjoy our beautiful garden, pool, and patio areas. The perfect place to relax after a busy day at work or sightseeing. Whether you book only one of the rooms, or the "whole house" you can be certain of a memorable stay. The separate one-bedroom cottage can accommodate up to 4 people. It is also equipped for self catering. Please note that the cottage does NOT have access to the swimming pool. The most common parting words of our guests : "We'll be back!" has proved to be true, with many of our guests having returned a second, third and even a fourth time. Whether you're looking for a place to accommodate staff coming to work in the Hillcrest area; or you're organizing a small get-together for family & friends; or you want to have a few nights away with your partner (or on your own); not matter what your reason, Khululeka Lodge is the place to stay.

Excellent Accommodation at Nyala Guest House

Reviewed By Cindy S

This place is fantastic! We have been here 10 days with 3 days left. Les and Mandy are so nice and cooked a very tasty dinner for us on arrival as we had requested. Breakfast is also available upon request. The email booking with Mandy was very easy even with our 8 hour time difference. The 2 bedroom accommodation, the Nyala Room, is very clean, comfortable and spacious. We have enjoyed seeing the wildlife from our room and the views are awesome! Highly recommended! Cindy and Tom.
