Beautiful location and lovely silence.
We had a wonderful rest. Upon our arrival, we were kindly received by Nokwe and she informed us about our place of residence and also about what there is to do in the area. We stayed in the Hillside Cottage for 4 nights. The cottage has a beautiful view of the mountains and is well furnished and tidy. We slept very well, the beds and bedding are of good quality. We had a great time relaxing on the sunny stoep and there is also a nice picnic area set up next to the river. If you want to relax, rest and be quiet, this is the place for it. We will definitely stay there again to recharge. There are also hiking trails in the area and some nice restaurants, all very close to Ledges Retreat.

Lovely, relaxed. Close to the Royal Natal Nature Reserve.
Very good housing. Peaceful stay. Tidy. Cleaned every day. If only you could also provide coffee mugs for the coffee drinkers who like a mug and not a cup. For guests looking to shop on their way to the resorts and that part of the Drakensberg, stop in Harrismith or in Winterton. No shops in that area.

A quiet winter getaway into the mountains with my teens for a few days.
Ledges Retreat Guest House 's response
Hi Cheryl, thank you for your review of Hillside Cottage. We are very glad you had a good stay with your kids. Yes, it is a good idea to arrive with all your groceries as we are (fortunately) out of the way and far from shops. Luckily there are views of the mountains from the bedrooms as well! Kind regards, Jessica

Blissful, clean and comfortable.
One cannot help but feel at home. The unit (Hillside Cottage) is beautifully furnished and the veranda is ideal for visiting from early morning to late evening. We also really enjoyed the braai area next to the stream.

Hi Charl-marie, thank you for your review. I am happy you enjoyed your stay. Your booking was for two people and included breakfast. Our rate is R750pppn for B&B. We are aware of the Wi-Fi issues and are looking into ways to improve it, however given our location in the mountains, it is a challenge. All the best for 2023.

A real getaway.
Nokwe received us very kindly and immediately made us feel at home. Hillside Cottage as well as Ledges Retreat's double rooms offer everything you need for a wonderfully relaxing break. The house is spacious, clean and nicely decorated, the kitchen well equipped and the rooms beautiful with very comfortable beds. The stoep is nice for visiting, barbecuing and the view of the mountains is breathtaking. We could go for a nice walk and there is a lovely picnic spot under the trees by the river. Thank you very much, Adrian and Jessica, for your hospitality and for sharing your beautiful farm with us, we would love to visit again!

Definitely a place to visit again.
Ledges Retreat is definitely one of those places that one will visit again and again. The accommodation is very nice and is good value for money. You are received kindly and the service is also very good. You can sit on the porch and listen to the stream that is not far from the houses, or take a walk in the beautiful surroundings. Royal Natal is also nice and close.

We particularly enjoyed the farmhouse and meals. Appreciate hospitality and friendly service as well as a beautiful view.
We would love to go back again for a good rest, beautiful view and silence. The meals were a bonus for us who wanted to rest. Tasty and we actually felt guilty about their special effort for just the 2 of us for dinners as well as the generous portions! It is absolutely remarkable what the new owners (young couple) have built up there in about 4 years and the sacrifices that go with it for them as a young family. Especially considering extremely challenging economic times (many small businesses close in these times and they have, on the contrary, built up something remarkable!) Moreover, also in the midst of the Covid pandemic which has affected the tourism industry so badly! We were amazed and full of praise for what has been achieved so far in light of this undertaking in the midst of challenging contemporary times. We were also grateful for the good quality bed (as well as bedding) and bathroom facilities. We enjoyed the sunnyness of the house, as well as the space and nice, clean atmosphere. Cute kitchen and large dining room table with a lovely view to the mountains.

Friendly, breathtaking surroundings, clean and tidy.
Was kindly received. We were mesmerized by the breathtaking surroundings. Everything neat - bedding, bathroom and kitchen. It rained a lot and the wind was stormy at times but we love to barbecue. However, the braai by the kitchen has no cover to protect you from rain. There is a mancolic braai in front of no. 5 and we could at least stand in the door and braai outside - just before a severe wind and rainstorm broke out. And security is almost non-existent. Vehicles are vulnerable and access is not controlled - no gate or fence. These are not negative criticisms but recommendations. We had a great time relaxing and hanging out.
