Very good -
02 January 2008
Lovely place - very spacious cottage. On the property you have access to the river (great in summer). Also close to a lot of adventure destinations: hikes in the Drakensberg, tubing, mountainbiking etc.
The 4km gravel road to the cottage is not too great.
Very friendly and helpful staff.

Lovely, exceptional B&B -
07 May 2007
We had a lovely time at Birches cottages, it was by far the most luxurious cottage that we have stayed in (and we love travelling). The hosts (Huck and Elsabe) are warm, friendly people that ensured all our needs were met. We would definitely go back someday and recommend it to all.

Designed to satisfy the needs of the most discerning traveler, Birches and Willows are luxuriously appointed and serviced daily to international standards.
Set in a private garden on the six-hectare riverfront estate, the Birches and Willows combine luxurious country living with a host of outdoor adventures, self-drive activities and cultural pursuits.
The most memorable aspect of your visit will be the superlative service, attention to detail and the sincere interest of the Birches and Willows team in your personal comfort.
There are a host of outdoor facilities available in Underberg and its surround. If a visit the highest pub in Africa (situated in Lesotho, at the top of the famous Sani pass) is on your schedule, you will require a valid passport.
Besides a visit to the pub, local tour operators offer day excursions to San painting sites, horse trails, biking, quad bike excursions, 4X4 excursions, hiking, bird-watching, trout fishing, white water rafting, tubing, rock climbing, abseiling, golf and lots more.
