Stayed at: The Goodland Cottages
Perfect space in the Drakensberg
We found our 'Cottage One' to be modern-looking, spacious and fully equipped. It was the perfect place to spend a few nights in the Drakensberg. We would have loved to stay longer.

About The Goodland Cottages
Experience the charm of The Goodland Cottages, a scenic self-catering retreat on a smallholding at the foothills of the Central Drakensberg region in KwaZulu Natal. Lovers of nature will be in their element with the fresh air, rolling farmlands and the majestic mountains as a backdrop to a relaxing escape.
Each of the four cottages (Milk Cottage, Cottage One, Cottage Two and Honey Cottage) has been individually decorated to create unique spaces for guests. Equipped with a full kitchen, spacious living areas, outdoor braais and patios, and indoor fireplaces for cold months, The Goodland Cottage is the perfect private hideaway for families and couples alike.
The Goodland Cottages Setting
The Drakensberg Mountain Range, host to some of the highest peaks in Southern Africa, stands as one of South Africa’s most awe-inspiring natural marvels, offering a panorama of unparalleled beauty. Situated among the rolling foothills of the Central Drakensberg, The Goodland Cottages offer the perfect base to explore the beautiful surrounds.
The smallholding, hidden under the shade of 200-year-old trees, is located close to various hiking trails, guided outdoor activities, and even coffee shops and restaurants for those looking to experience a taste of local cuisine. Guests in the mood to simply kick back and relax can enjoy slow strolls throughout the property or soak up the sun on their private patios.
