The Ledges is in a gorgeous and tranquil Drakensberg location. The cottage was clean and comfortable and far exceeded our expectations. Owners Adrian and Jessica were exceedingly kind and generous and made a plan to get an important bag we’d left behind delivered to Johannesburg, for which we’re eternally grateful!

Great Views
The scenery is amazing, views incredible . We stayed in the Farm House which was very spacious and well kept. The breakfast was okay. There aren't a lot of amenities around ensure you are well stocked up on necessities. There are also only 2 places where you can dine close by, which had an hour waiting time when we were there, ensure you factor these in during peak times so that you avoid being hangry 🙂

Hi Lerato, thank you for the positive feedback. Yes, we are blessed to be in the countryside and away from it all so you are quite right about coming prepared with groceries and alcohol and stuff! Sorry you had to wait for your food...it is only during peak times. Hope to see you again:) Kind regards, Jessica

Hi Richard I am sorry you feel you paid too much. You booked room only for 2 people at a rate of R780 for both of you for the night. The room included WIFI, DSTV, private bathroom with bath and shower, Tea and Coffee... I do wonder what else you were expecting? I can assure you our rates are of the most reasonable in the area. Kind regards Jessica

Excelente lugar en Drakesberg
Excelente lugar muy espacioso limpio y muy amable la recepcionista. Queda en un lugar heemoso con un gran parque. Super recomendable. La casa esta totalmente equipada. Lamentablemente solo nos quedamos una noche pero el lugar merece una estadia mayor.

We really loved our stay at Ledges Retreat, the surroundings are so beautiful and peaceful. Royal Natal is really closeby to go for a hike. The room was nicely decorated and modern with a big bathroom. Everyone was really friendly and the dogs were a bonus ;-) Definitely one of our favourite places during our 3 week trip!
