Tugela River Lodge: Hideaway

Tugela River Lodge is a pet friendly, self-catering Eco-Lodge, located on a private cattle and game farm on the banks of the Tugela River, near Winterton, KZN, South Africa. We run off solar and gas and invite guest to come and enjoy the quiet side of nature. Our lodge has access to many miles of trails for hiking, biking and running through our private game farm where one can get up close and personal with our resident giraffe. The sounds of the river are sure to put you to sleep at night! The Hideaway is a 6 sleeper unit, with a kitchen, lounge and dining room downstairs, and 2 bedrooms upstairs. One room has a queen size bed and 1 single bed and the other has 3 single beds. This unit is ideal for smaller groups and families. I live on sight and there is another manager here, Bheki, who will be able to help with anything you need. Bheki's children sell firewood which they cut from the game farm for R30 a bundle...well worth it for a braai (bbq) or for a winter fire inside. Tugela River Lodge is located between Winterton and Ladysmith on a private cattle farm with the river running past the door step. Winterton is a small farming town with a few grocery shops and coffee shops. There are some great restaurants in the area about 20-30 minutes from the lodge. You will need your own car. No uber out here!
