Fantastic


This has got to be one of the best places we have ever visited. Don't be put off by the dirt road leading up to Sewula. It just makes it more exclusive. Staff were fantastic. We didn't have to lift a finger. From doing the dishes to washing our car the day we left, they even anticipated when we wanted a fire in the fireplace. You name it! Fantastic place for get togethers, family reunions or just a romantic couple, you can not go wrong with Sewula

Amazing place


We were a group of 16 cyclists and this was our first visit, and will very definitely not be the last. What an amazing place, the setting was perfect. The staff were friendly, polite, so obliging and did whatever we asked. Sewula takes self catering to a very different level. Even the cars were washed. We were sorry we were only able to enjoy one night at this amazing spot. Absolutely magic, we are planning our next mountain bike weekend at Sewula.

Description



Sewula Gorge Lodge is a four star, exclusive, luxury, fully serviced, self-catering lodge, built at the base of a waterfall, on the rivers edge, in a spectacular Gorge. It is situated in KwaZulu-Natal between the towns of Estcourt and Mooi River on a working cattle farm, within a nature reserve area.

The lodge has four en-suite cottages (basically bedrooms) with their own balconies. Three of these have twin beds and showers and one has a double bed with a bath and shower. These are all fed by a main central building, which has the kitchen, lounge and dining room in it.

The lodge is fully serviced, with a very well equipped modern kitchen. We provide our guests with all their linen and towels, and firewood. Our staff does all the washing up; the rooms twice a day with a turn down at night, (where tea, coffee and Rooibos are put into the rooms), light your fire in the lounge fireplace for you, and generally try to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Due to the nature of the lodge, once a couple, family or group books with us, even if there are only two people involved, we do not take any other bookings in the lodge, so your family/group will be the only people in the lodge. This is done because people who do not know each other cannot reasonably be expected to share a kitchen.

The rooms all have a fan, heater, hairdryer, toiletries, International convertible plug, and a wall safe. There are cots available, a self-braai facility, covered parking and your laundry can be done on request. Children are welcome.

Activities at the lodge include: swimming in the river, dam fishing (Bass), Bird watching, an abundance of flora and fauna, found along the marked walks and around the gorge. The lodge is built in a National Heritage site. There is a paleontology site (Fortified Iron age man) on the hill behind the lodge, and an Anglo-Boer War Monument site to the one side of the lodge.

Come and visit our lodge and experience a place in a setting so beautiful it sings to your soul.
