Description

Affordable B&B and self-catering accommodation, set in a tranquil country setting just 10 km from Underberg in the Southern Drakensberg. We provide free parking and fabulous meals off an a la carte menu in our restaurant. Located near horse riding trails, mountain biking trails, hiking routes, golf courses, trout fishing waters and of course the infamous Sani Pass.

We are situated 1 hour from Howick on the N3, 1 hour from Kokstad, making Underberg the ideal location from which to explore the majestic mountains of the Southern Drakensberg. We are on the route between Johannesburg and seaside resorts of the South Coast and Wild Coast making this the ideal location to stopover for the night.

We offer bed and breakfast, room only, self-catering and full board options in our various units.

Reasons to come to Underberg include guided Sani Pass 4x4 trips, birding, flower walks, Drak Challenge, canoeing, Drak 250, off-road racing, equestrian events, Splashy Fen, golf tours, San rock art, and really just autumn, winter, spring and summer. Notice how it's all about the outdoors. We don't have TVs in any of our bedrooms, we want you to hear the sound of the water flowing and the jackals talking to each other at night.

Bring your passport for your trip up Sani Pass into Lesotho.

What a stay!
Benjamin van Staden, South Africa
02 May 2012
Our family stayed at TOH for one night only but found the accommodation simply fantastic! From the bedding to the scenery was simply marvelous. Thank you!
The mountains and good food

02 April 2012
Very clean and large accommodation - very up to date. The food was excellent, and we can honestly say it has been a long time since we have had food of that quality - thanks to the chef.
Fantastic

Very beautiful surroundings & very peaceful. We enjoyed the restaurant on the premise and the staff were very friendly. It is a great place to base yourself to explore the underberg!
