Description
Facilities

Nestled quietly on a hillside, deep within the barren Maloti Mountain range and overlooking the working Roman Catholic Mission of St James, lies the igneous rock buildings of St James Lodge.

These modernized century old buildings are conveniently situated on the Thaba Tseka road only 1hr away from the infamous Sani Pass, and just under 2hrs away from the new snow skiing resort of Afriski.

Fill your lungs with the fresh mountain air, see the stars like you've never seen them before, experience the rich Basotho culture and history of the area, and most importantly, relax and enjoy the views.

We stayed for 2 nights over New Year and really enjoyed the comfortable rooms and communal dining/lounge area. The bathroom and kitchen fittings are in excellent condition and the bedding is neat and comfortable. Elias was always on hand to make sure the kitchen was in order and to answer any of our questions. I wasn't able to get anything better than a cold/luke-cold shower in the evenings, despite the blazing fire which appeared to be "heating" up the outside donkey. Will definitely stay here again!

Neat and tidy. We just did not know that there is no electricity. Could not shower as there was no hot water. Kitchen dishes were washed but not packed away in cupboards.
