141 guests' feedbackWe had a wonderful stay, it is breathtakingly beautiful, neat and clean, enjoyed it very much.
Excellent, very nice, clean and comfortable. Excellent value for money. Hostess very friendly.
Perfect for a group of ladies.
We really enjoyed our stay! The room was perfect, clean and all amenities were well looked after. We loved the pet meerkat!
This turned out to be quite a find, a great stop off between the Lowveld and the South Coast. Very happy with our choice.
Very nice stay. Will definitely use it again. Highly recommended.
We had a wonderful stay. Very nice farm atmosphere, very friendly hostess. Was pampered with the honesty bar's sweet treats and wine. Beautiful view of the valley and Drakensberg in the background. Within 30 km of most attractions in Winterton. We are already planning our next visit.
Particularly beautiful and very comfortable. Beautifully tidy and surprise snacks (for a fee).
Nice quiet stay on a working farm.
Quiet atmosphere and friendly hostess. We had a nice stay and rested and really enjoyed the surroundings. As pensioners it was a wonderful experience and we will definitely go back again when there is snow on the mountains to experience it too.
We had a wonderful stay. Would have loved to stay there more days. Beautiful surroundings and beautiful place. The furniture is of good quality, the hostess beautiful and very friendly. Will definitely stay there again.
Tidy. Good value for money.
Brilliant midway stop for a rest between Johannesburg and Durban.
Very very nice. Top class.
Beautiful rooms! Very clean and tidy with absolutely everything needed. The tranquility and the view are soul food!
The vehicle parking area feels unsafe and is very narrow. The rest is excellent.
Apartment is very well equipped with quality furniture.
Great view, friendly hostess.
We had a wonderful rest in the clean and neatly maintained room. The parking is safe and from the room's veranda and garden there is a beautiful view of the foothills and the Drakensberg.
Extremely neat and new. Little extras made a big difference, biscuits and sherry. Thank you very much.
Never felt unsafe but still wondered why neighboring farms have electric fences?
Valita, the owner, is rude and the place is in an absolute state of disaster dirty cracked walls dirty shower dirty kettle mud on walkways. The paint is peeling off the walls. Don't waste your money, it's not worth it and if you get there there is no person to welcome you. Self-check-in to a place that looks like it went through a war is absolutely not worth the money. Disgusting service and owner. No WiFi is available and the owner blames everything on 120 mm of rain. So the rain cracked the walls peeled paint and tiles and made the WiFi not work. Valita is a liar and scamming people out off their hard-earned money.
This is a great place to stay at. Well equipped kitched. Amazing view.
Drakensview is highly recommended for overnight or multi-day stays as it is located in a good environment and offers excellent accommodation. Wonderful view from the braai on the stoep as well as animals in the close view.
The owners are hospitable and so friendly.
We had a wonderful stay!
Friendly reception by ensnares, clean and spacious room, has everything you need and a nice view of the mountains.
Peaceful surroundings with an excellent location.
It's a welcoming place.
Our visit was very pleasant. Neat accommodation. Well equipped unit. Will definitely use Drakensview again. Beautiful place.
Friendly welcome by a very hungry meerkat. Child enjoyed it very much.
Truly a wonderful place. Neat, safe and quiet. All the little things are taken care of to make your stay comfortable. Will definitely visit again.
Had a great time. Must stay longer next time. Beautiful view which will of course be greener and very beautiful in summer. The animals (cattle, horses etc.) nearby and the view of the mountain are very calming.
Halfway between Witbank and the South Coast. Just the right place to spend the night to combat travel sickness with lovely sights on hand.
Really enjoyed the scenery and tranquility.
Valita is very open friendly and obliging. This is what South Africa is all about.
Very neat unit with lots of treats. So e.g. sherry, air conditioning and nice biscuits with the coffee. Good value for money.
Friendly people. Most beautiful place and very neat. Located close to everything. Value for money.
Very neat and comfortable with stunning views.
Beautiful unit with beautiful decor. We could relax and relax in the silence. At sunset the view with Drakensberg in the background was picturesque! We will book at Drakensview again!
We were warmly welcomed - the accommodation is excellent. We were joined by 2 beautiful cats that evening. I can highly recommend it, especially if you want to have a peaceful time with incredible views. We will stay there again anytime.
Has to be the best bed I have ever slept in. Such a stunning little room with all the necessities. I would recommend that you remove the big bee hive in the garden. Your bathroom shower also has a slight leak
It's a beautiful place and we had a great time there.
We stayed overnight after my husband's hike in the Drakensberg. The rooms are super neat and has everything you may need for a comfortable stay. Located only about 4 km out of Winterton, they are centrally located for daily trips to the central Drakensberg region and there is an awesome steakhouse just a stone's throw away from this guesthouse which turned out to be a real gem!
We had a wonderful stay at Drakensview Self Catering, with great service, excellent views and a sense of privacy and comfort. Thank you very much for making it feel special!
The stay was very nice thank you.
Very neat and clean. We could go for a nice walk and restaurant just around the corner.
We were met and helped by the owner. The self catering unit had a very nice view and garden. We enjoyed our stay.
A nicely furnished unit with everything one may need. Everything was clean and of excellent quality. The bed was very comfortable with very good linen. The atmosphere was quiet and there was a nice view of the mountains. This is the ideal place to stay and drive around all the attractions in the area. Next time we will definitely stay longer.
We were welcomed and immediately felt at home. We stayed here overnight. The farm atmosphere and view of the Drakensberg is what we needed. The room is artfully decorated and everything is very neat and clean.
Everything was very neat and comfortable.
Ideal accommodation with a beautiful view. Quiet farm atmosphere where one feels safe and welcome. Everything is very clean and equipped. Definitely a place to just find yourself again, will go back any day.
Thank you - wonderful. Will definitely recommend it!
The unit was modern, well-equipped and very clean. I was however not aware that the kids would be sleeping in the same room on bunk beds - this was not made clear to me at the time of booking and I thought they would be in a separate room. As a result it was very cramped and the single bathroom proved challenging. There were also an enormous amount of flies - the owner should consider putting fly traps up. The location and views are lovely.
Affordable accommodation option in the mountains.
The place is home away from home, but that black cat traumatised us, the red throw over that was on main bed wasn't clean, the crisps were all expired. There's no security.
The gate is not welcoming for cars. The entrance road is bad for cars as it is a bad gravel road, it is not easy to park your car in their parking. That place is suitable for bakkies, but they will still struggle to park. Inside the rooms it is clean and perfect. The assistant is very good at what she does. She treated us as if she owns that business. We liked her a lot. Please work on the gate, the entrance road and parking. The place itself is far far away from Drakensberg mountain. The pic on the internet is zoomed.
We liked everything about this place! The nicely and comfortably designed and furnished units, the friendly staff, the helpful owner, the fantastic view, the quiet location, all of this was perfect for us. Thanks for the great advice on what to do and where to go. We would definitely recommend Drakensview and would love to come back.
Drakensview is very neat and comfortable and there are a lot of extras that you wouldn't expect from a self-catering unit. Will stay there again for sure.
Drakensview Self Catering was a very pleasant destination. Reception was excellent with cleaning services every day. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend Drakensview.
Valita received me and my spouse generously and stopped by regularly to find out if everything was still in order. The location and view are very good.
This was one of the finest trips I have been on, and found that the accommodation was exceptional. I would highly recommend this accommodation.
It is one of the most beautiful self-catering places I have visited. The decor, sleeping place and view are top notch.
Can definitely recommend it. We forgot some of our luggage there and the owner went out of her way to return it to us. Truly outstanding service!
Accommodation was beautifully furnished and clean. Quiet farm atmosphere with a beautiful view.
Drakensview Self Catering was just what we needed. Very neat and beautiful. We loved it. Thank you!
Sitting on the porch made it all worth it, and also the fact that we could braai even when it was raining. It's a place we will visit again!
The accommodation is very well equipped, clean, tidy with excellent customer service. It was absolutely worth the break away here and ideally located. However, we were a little worried about our vehicle because there was no locked gate and it was located next to a busy road.
We were received generously by the owner who made us feel right at home. The room is comfortably furnished and exquisitely decorated. We were surprised with sherry for the cold evening and biscuits for our breakfast. This view from the porch was incredible and certainly lives up to its name Drakensview. We would definitely recommend the stay.
Have a good time in Winterton. Beautiful view of the Drakensberg. A little too close to the road for our liking. Very neat and clean.
We really liked our accommodation - all was there that you could possible need. Comfortable bed and the linen and towels were changed frequently. We found the hostess to be very friendly, but only saw her during the day when we arrived. Felt that she could have checked up in the afternoons to show a bit more interest. On a clear day you can see the mountain, but only if you sit on the patio. During bad weather you have to stay indoors and then you feel somewhat confined. Also felt that the mountains were a bit far. We have stayed closer to the mountain. Yet we would recommend Drakensview.
Beautiful surroundings. Calm and quiet. Love the scenery.
Everything is very well-maintained and luxurious. The hostess was very helpful, she immediately had information about hot air balloons after we enquired about it.
Drakensview was perfect for our needs, a convenient home base close to central Drakensberg. The units are neat and clean, well equipped and located on a peaceful farm. The cleaner provided a good service and we hit the road every day with peace of mind. For a family of five, the unit was a bit cramped, but we were able to make a plan with garden chairs for meals around the kitchen table.
A very peaceful place to return to after a long day of adventure at all the nearby attractions in the Drakensberg, would stay there again.
We really enjoyed staying here as the location is very central when visiting the Drakensberg. The view is great and the garden is definitely a treat for the eyes. The rooms are excellently equipped and everything needed for a self-catering holiday is there. You can also see that effort has been put into the decor of the rooms - they are very stylishly decorated and the bed sleeps wonderfully (not something you can always say).
Neat accommodation near Winterton. Als was very clean and the units are perfectly furnished.
Lovely units, very neat and well furnished. Friendly owner who we will definitely see again.
Had a wonderful stay. Everything as we would like it. Fine!
We stayed in number 1 and it was very neat and clean. Everything we needed.
It was a pleasure to stay in Drakensview Self Catering. The rooms were spacious, comfortable, clean and tidy and were equipped with everything we needed. The small extras in the room were also a nice surprise. Quiet and peaceful surroundings and the children had a wonderful time. The hostess was very kind and friendly. We will definitely stay there in future if we are in the area again.
The view is beautiful, the tranquility is amazing and accommodation is child friendly. I visited with my family and our grandchildren had a memorable experience!
We would have liked just a bit more secure parking. There were also no steak knives in the unit.
There were a lot of mosquitoes and dogs barked to wake me up.
Neat, well-maintained unit. Central location.
We had a very pleasant stay. Host was very accommodating and met our needs. Would definitely recommend this to people who are keen to book this venue.
We were helped in a friendly manner even though we arrived at our destination a little late. We enjoyed the quietness of the surroundings. It was very, very neat.
Unit with breathtaking mountain view. Close to all the attractions and delicious places to eat. Quiet hospitable atmosphere. Definitely go again!
Away from the hustle and bustle of town but only 4 km from a large Spar. Hospitably received in a clean apartment that is fully furnished. Nice garden with seating and even a playground for children. Unobstructed view of the Drakensberg. Easily accessible.
We had an amazing stay and would definitely recommend Drakensview. It was clean, tasteful and peaceful.
Drakensview Self Catering is tidy and the surrounding garden is very beautiful. It offers a lovely farm atmosphere. The customer service is outstanding. The accommodation is neat and well maintained.
Wonderful accommodation, especially with children. There is a nice playground and space for kids.
Excellent accommodation in a peaceful environment. Accommodation is neat and very well equipped with all the essentials. View is breathtaking and there is no noise from any traffic.
Drakensview met all my wildest expectations! The view was incredible and the cleanliness unbeatable! It is also very centrally located. I could really relax there after days of zipping around the area. Valita, you have a gem, cherish it! I will definitely come to visit you guys again!
Good location. Neat and fully equipped. Hospitable and helpful.
Thanks to Valita van Drakensview for the wonderful reception and hospitality. The units are beautiful, well laid out and provide everything you need for a weekend getaway.
We had a good stay and everything you need is provided. The place is very neat and clean and we will definitely go again and also recommend it.
Reception on arrival was very friendly and helpful. Very neat unit. Information of environment available. Definitely recommend.
Very calm. Only very warm and small pool would have been nice to cool down a bit.
The place is stylish and we had a nice view of the horses!
Friendly welcome, then no intrusion. Idyllic, tranquil location with lovely well designed garden. Good quality furniture and appliances. Nice touch with the free sherry and rusks.
The facilities are neat, clean, modern and well laid out. The garden is a delight and compliments the location. There were even rechargeable standby lights in case of load shedding.
Owners are very customer friendly and provide you with an unforgettable time at Drakensview Self Catering. Sorry that we had to say goodbye! Hope to return there again!!
Quiet and very tidy, we will definitely go again!
A quiet place beautifully located near Winterton. Service is excellent and the people are friendly and helpful.
Was slightly concerned about the safety of the vehicle.
We slept over one night on the way to the sea (from Pretoria to Uvongo). The accommodation exceeded all expectations with beautifully appointed rooms. No effort has been spared with the detail. The tranquility and view as well as the sunset made it perfect.
10 out of 10!
We only stayed over for one night on our way back from the Midmarmyl. Excellent value for money and beautiful view.
Very comfortable, tidy, friendly, value for money. Will stay there again.
Drakensview is a wonderful self-catering place just outside Winterton. It's a little far from Champagne Valley, but still ideally located. The rooms are very neat with very nice furniture. I would definitely recommend it!
The unit is beautiful and the view just as beautiful, we had a great time staying there. Will definitely go again!
Good facilities and decor, good quality accommodation.
Thank you for a comfortable and peaceful overnight stay. My whole family was comfortable, even the baby.
Drakensview Self Catering was a lovely pit stop back from the sea. We and the children really enjoyed it. It was wonderful to wake up and breathe in the fresh mountain air.
Very pleasant people. Will definitely stay there again.
It was a great place to relax and rest. The units are very clean, tidy, beautiful and feel very luxurious.
Tastefully and neatly furnished to ensure a wonderful break.
Drakensview Self Catering is a beautiful place that stole our hearts! We had a good time and rested in the peaceful farm atmosphere! Worth recommending to everyone! We will definitely be using Drakensview's hospitality again!
Thank you very much for the wonderful stay and warm hospitality we enjoyed. Everything was perfect, with a beautiful view of the mountains. Much attention has been paid to detail. Thank you also for the friendly and professional service! We would definitely recommend Drakensview Selfcatering.
Drakensview is a special place. The hostess and staff's hospitality and friendliness make you feel as if you have found your home.
Would love to go back anytime, the pictures speak the truth. You get everything and more than promised. Very stylish, neat and private.
Valita only did the best at her place. Als is worth 5 stars!
Will definitely stay at Drakensview again. Nice environment and everyone very friendly! Hope to see you again soon!
Would recommend the accommodation to any traveller. Was warmly received. The unit is very clean and comfortable with a beautiful view. Five stars.
Reception was hospitable and friendly, beautiful unit, quiet environment something that we as city dwellers really appreciate. Will definitely stay at Drakensview again and recommend.
Simply amazing accommodation for couples, we just loved the rooms, view and great hospitality from the host. Certainly recommend to others and will definitely book Drakensview again!
I lost my wedding and engagement ring in the room, and the owner called me the next day to ask if it was my ring. He returned it the next day. It was truly a miracle because I wouldn't know where to start looking.
Stayed and slept well
See star rating: this is a great accommodation option.
Neat, clean, comfortable and close enough to the champagne valley. Trendy decor. Friendly & helpful reception and cleaning service. Good braai facilities.
This accommodation is really very neat, new and has good quality linen, kitchen equipment etc. The heating device is one of the best we had on our trip. All that can be improved is parking facilities and fencing for safety.
I do not have words. The environment, the people, the places, the mountain, the restaurants, the horses on the farm, the cows, everything is just, peaceful! It was incredibly fun, and we are already planning a weekend there with other friends. Everything one needs and more. Thanks Vallita and team, it's a repeat visit!
If you need to be surrounded by lots of people, then do not go here. I like the stillness and I chose to stay at Drakensberg Self Catering: the place is clean with an awesome view, central and easy to access other places. For me it was an absolute pleasure to stay there. I will not stay anywhere again, because this is my kind of place ... on your own and enjoy the nature. Unwind in this nicely blend-in place. A very friendly host! I will highly recommend this place for those who like peace, but if you are up and go type of person who wants action all the time, then try another place.
See the stars below.
Great little spot - well equipped and lots of attention to detail. It is on a busy-ish road but the noise isn't too bad.
The reception is excellent and the atmosphere is very homely.
Totally enjoyable, clean, neat, great hospitality and close to all amenities, definitely would return.
It was very pleasant to stay at Drakensview for the weekend.
