It was our second time at Otters Den and it was just as enjoyable as the first time. It is perfectly located close to Nottingham Road and we woke up every morning to the most beautiful view. Many thanks to the owners who made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely go again!

A lovely place to switch off with everything you need.
This place is beautifully situated on the banks of the Lions River, overlooking the valley. Well equipped with everything you need. The place was taken over by Christine and her husband about a year ago and they are systematically improving it. The current project is to replace the electric stove plates with gas plates. In the event of power outages, there are generators available that are switched on when needed. There is a wood burner to ward off the cold, and wood is available. The beds are wonderfully comfortable and equipped with electric heating blankets. Christine is a very considerate hostess who puts her guests' comfort first. Otters Den Self-catering Cottages are highly recommended for a peaceful visit in beautiful surroundings.

Otters Den is a beautiful place with breathtaking views. Although it was cold and rainy, we still had a great time. It is only 15 minutes away from Nottingham Road and we were able to quickly drive through to visit the sights. The chalets were equipped with everything we needed including an electric blanket. We will definitely book a place there again.

Otters Den Self-catering Cottages is very well located with a river view in a private self-catering cottage. There were people who came to clean the fireplace and ensure the cleanliness of the cottage. Surrounded by beautiful nature and superior service. Would suggest Otters Den for any type of getaway.

Very nice and relaxing.
The location is perfect, the scenery is beautiful and all the villages in the Midlands Meander are easily accessible from here. It is private and very neat. Would appreciate a little more focus on detail. Changing soap and bubble bath daily would be nice. 2 Point plug for mobile phone charging and hair dryer would be appreciated. The fireplace is a good idea but getting it on is another story, a lot of smoke inside the room due to the chimney system, recommendation is to install a valve on the outside that can open and close .

Excellent value for money. Pictures on their website are what it actually looks like.
It's a gem in the Natal Midlands. Ideally located for visits to places such as cheese shops, weavers, bagel shop, local markets and many more. Otherwise you can just relax at your cottage and listen to the babbling of the Lions river. There is a lovely fireplace which is cozy, especially on rainy days. The owners are very friendly and will go out of their way to help where needed. The spa treatments are heavenly and definitely recommended. We will definitely go here again. It was also a chance for us to rest our soul and body, after a very stressful year. Put a visit to this precious place on your holiday list.

An incredibly intimate feeling overwhelms you as you walk through the unit's door and you just can't help but stare out the window. The porch is lovely and scenery wraps you around with both arms, so beautiful! The TV and DStv can be removed, because it is totally unnecessary. Of course we enjoyed the hot tub to the fullest! The quiet and privacy is all we needed and this is definitely one of our top 10 getaways.

We had a very nice stay. It is peaceful with beautiful scenery.
We were kindly received. The residence is well maintained and the owners are full time involved in their business. The extra bonus was definitely the option of a spa treatment. We can recommend Otters den if you like tranquility and if you can appreciate the natural beauty. It is located away from the tourist activity, but close enough if you want to be part of the Nottingham experience.
