How about accommodation outside the Drakensberg? To the southwest in the Eastern Cape Drakensberg are a number of pretty villages and towns, all with awesome views of the mountain range. There’s Rhodes, with its dust roads populated by Victorian tin-roofed cottages, a popular destination for 4x4 enthusiasts, hikers and trailer runners. Other places include the seemingly untouched Maclear, which will give you more access to the natural beauty of South Africa, and Ugie, with towering mountains forming its backdrop.
