Description

Welcome to Old Beacon Hill, once an old railway station at the heart of KwaZulu-Natal, now converted to beautiful self-catering cottages. Set in stunning surrounds and wonderfully located, we are the ideal platform to discover what the Drakensberg, the Midlands Meander and the historic Battlefields have to offer.

Arts, crafts, game reserves, food and drink, outdoor pursuits, historical monuments, relaxation and sports are all within easy reach of the venue.

Old Beacon Hill has four cottages on the land accommodating up to a total of 20 guests and as many infants under three as you can squeeze in. We also have an exclusive caravan and camping enclosure that boasts their own shower and toilet.

There are over seven hectares of land to explore that has a stream running along it, a torch-lit gazebo over-looking a pond and plenty of wildlife. On our doorstep there are beautiful drives and walks where you can see Bushmans River in all its glory and the first of many Battlefield sites. We are the ideal base for a lengthy holiday and fantastically positioned for a quick stop-over.

Cosy!
Sunet de Klerk, South Africa
02 January 2012
This is a beautiful stopover in the mountains, situated very close to the highway. The camping facilities are private with a very neat bathroom. We will definitely make use of this venue again!
Great escape

Excellent place to get away from the hectic city life. I sincerely recommend this place for real country-style peace and quiet and fresh air.
Ideal stop over

All-round excellence!
Hendrik Oosthuizen, South Africa
03 October 2011
We arrived at Old Beacon Hill at around 10:40 pm and were greeted with a friendly smile despite the time. The cabin is stylishly furnished with soft bedding. Old Beacon Hill even provided tea, coffee and milk which was a welcome surprise after the long trip. I would recommend this establishment to all my friends and family. Well done!
Very nice

Higly recommended. Appreciate small touches. No ashtray on the stoep.
