  • Description
  • Facilities
Petra's Country Guesthouse is affordable self-catering accommodation, situated on a working jersey dairy and nguni beef cattle farm. The guest house is a historic Victorian sandstone homestead in the Skurweberg Valley, only 9 km from Vryheid.

We offer comfortable fully equipped units, hosting up to 25 guests. There are rooms available for singles, couples or groups. There are beautiful mountain views, clean air and fresh spring water. Continental breakfasts can be arranged on request.

Fundamentally a coal mining and beef farming town, Vryheid lies roughly 70 km northeast of Dundee in Zululand. Whilst Vryheid’s surrounds are largely dominated by timber farming and crops such as groundnuts and maize, the town also lies near the sources of four major rivers named the White and Black Umfolozi, Mkhuze and Pongolo.

Access to the wetlands in the area are thus good, and some of them are of regional importance, which is of added benefit to birdwatchers and provides a diversity of scenery for hikers to the area, coupled with the added value of several nature reserves.

Hugh Bland, South Africa

Petra was very friendly and welcoming. All was good with the accommodation. Room a bit hot at this time of year - a screen door or trelli would have been nice to get a bit of air circulation. Unit was very well equipped, clean and very good value. Louis was great and shared interest in local history with a very knowlegable visit to Nkambule battle site nearbye.

Our stay was fantastic and above all expectations! Petra's warm hospitality made us feel very welcomed, and her personal touch made our stay fun, and over all a rich experience.

We highly recommend Petra's Country Guesthouse. The accommodation is beautifully presented and very comfortable, the location and views are gorgeous, and the hosts could not be any more welcoming and helpful. Petra was quick to respond and provide all the necessary information when we booked, and both she and Louis were such great hosts during our stay...we felt like friends by the time we left after just one night. Don't hesitate to book a stay at Petra's Country Guesthouse...you will love it too!
