  • Description
  • Facilities
Briar Lea Lodge offers self-catering accommodation in the village of Underberg in the Southern Drakensberg. Escape to the serenity of our 800-hectare farm and come unwind, relax and enjoy our comfortable accommodation. Briar Lea’s location makes it an ideal overnight spot for those heading up Sani Pass, or as a comfortable stop-over after a day on the Giant's Cup Trail. We are situated 2.5 km just before Himeville village, on the Cobham Nature Reserve Road.

For bird-lovers, we have more than 50 species on our farm including a large flock of Crowned crane. Large birds of prey are often seen and there is a Vulture Restaurant on the hill. Briar Lea is a working farm of farming cattle, maize, potatoes and beans. Our dam is stocked with bass and trout and the Pholela River flows through the farm. Children are most welcome and will enjoy all the sights and sounds of the working farm.

Briar Lea Lodge is an original character-filled homestead, well over a hundred years old and beautifully restored, with wooden floors and large light rooms. The lodge comprises a kitchen, dining room, lounge, pub, and a lovely veranda with barbecue facilities overlooking the well-kept garden. The lodge boasts four en-suite bedrooms, one with an interleading single room, and a large six-bedded room. This is an ideal location for large family groups, informal conferences and team building.

The Briar Lea Loft accommodates six guests in three twin rooms. This quaint cottage is a great place to watch the sunrise over the farm from the deck, or have a barbecue as you listen to the jackals' nightly call. The loft comprises a lounge, dining area, bathroom and kitchenette, and there are double garages to protect your cars from the icy Underberg winter while 'the free-standing log fireplace is sure to keep you warm. This cosy unit is ideal for a family or couples getaway.

Our self-catering accommodation is fully equipped and serviced daily. All linen and bath towels are provided and an initial supply of wood for the fireplace and barbecue is also supplied. In addition, we can assist with trips up Sani Pass as well as supervised horse trails. Other activities in and around the area include walking, picnics and trout fishing.

Was an awesome weekend - a perfect place to destress from the city life. Total relaxation and host was very friendly and accomadating. Will visit again. Thank you for a memorable weekend.

We stayed at the lodge the evening before the Sani2C and enjoyed the hospitality very much. Thanks for going out of your way to come and pick us up in Underberg and drop off the next morning. Lodge has a lot of character!
