85 guests' feedbackVery friendly host and excellent location and very comfortable. Great value for money.
Very good service and accommodation. Clean and comfortable room.
I accidentally made my reservation wrong, it was only for the next evening. Owners went out of their way to still help me. Thank you very much!
We had a very nice stay. Notting Hill Lodge is centrally located to visit the Nottingham Road area. We felt very welcome and the owner and manager went out of their way to make it a great time.
Very nice stay, everything was fine.
Best hospitality ever.
Very nice, clean and safe. Appreciated the electric blanket on the bed! I'll be back!
Most beautiful place and owners were over friendly and very helpful, had to print urgent documents on a Sunday evening and they did not hesitate for a moment to help. Really appreciated.
I wish we had found this lodge sooner - ideal for what we needed.
Yes, we have delicious breakfast and friendly service.
See stars.
Great accommodation, great location, great hosts.
No problems, just a bit far away from places to eat. If it rained, you struggle to get to a place with a car and trailer.
We had another wonderful stay at Notting Hill Lodge. The beautiful Midlands lodge is a comfortable stay away from home. The hosts are fantastic and go out of their way to accommodate their guests. Thank you!
The owners went out of their way to make us feel at home. Very peaceful and beautiful.
Koos and Lorraine were very friendly and hospitable! We had a wonderful stay and the breakfast was top notch!
My girls and I loved staying here. We will definitely be back.
Very peaceful place!
Beautiful gardens and view. We had a lovely stay. We booked two rooms because we were away with my girlfriend for the weekend. Our room didn't have a shower which would be quite bad if we couldn't take a shower with our "neighbour".
The family unit was comfortable and well equipped with everything needed. The unit was very neat and clean. And thanks for the toys the little team could play with.
Acceptable with good hosts.
Koos and Lorraine are friendly and hospitable. The rooms are stylish, the living area is cozy and our breakfast outside on the veranda was delicious! I would recommend it to anyone. Thank you Lorraine and Koos.
Very enjoyable stay. Very comfortable and clean accommodation. Beautiful peaceful environment. Very convenient location. Hosts were really lovely and welcoming making sure we had all information we needed on arrival. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay there again.
Absolute stunning place. Well looked after. The owners are real heart people. They really made us feel more then welcome. They also made a special dinner as it was my husband's birthday.
Very quiet place and the owners are incredibly concerned. Really enjoyed it and close to everything to see.
Our family enjoyed nature immensely, our time was just too short to explore and enjoy everything.
We had such a good time! The service and hospitality was perfect! We slept well and had a delicious breakfast! The place is in the perfect area near lots of cute places! We will definitely visit Notting Hill Lodge again!
"The little apartment has 2 bedrooms and offers accommodation for 4 guests. Bedroom 1 has a double bed and Bedroom 2 has 2 single beds. Both rooms have an en-suite bathroom with either a bath or a shower with a sink and ' a toilet. Other facilities include a lounge, a microwave, fridge, tea and coffee making facilities and a TV with selected DStv channels. " This is how the family apartment is advertised on the website. I just want to say first that the stay was very pleasant, and everything was very nice clean and tidy, and the location was fantastic with a beautiful view, and we really had a nice stay. I was just a bit upset when there was no microwave in the unit, and no TV with DStv channels. Now the TV was really not a big problem as we are not big TV watchers but the fact that there was no microwave was a problem. We had a barbecue in the evening, and the facilities for that were fully at our disposal, but I did have ready-made side dishes that I just needed to heat up, and then there is no microwave, so we had to eat the food cold, which was not very nice. At least I feel that what is advertised should be available. The unit had all utensils and other necessary things, there was no place to wash dishes though, and I wondered what families who stay there for a few days do with all the dirty dishes. Perhaps there were common kitchen facilities somewhere, but if there were, we were not privy to them.
Very nice will come again.
A problem is the shower that is in the bath, it's a problem to get into the bath first. I had a knee replacement in February and couldn't shower. Sorry no food is offered in the evening. They were very helpful with parking the caravan and providing power.
Most beautiful environment, scenery incredible. Spacious accommodation, comfortable beds with the best bedding. Can be a bit difficult for older people to climb the steps.
Maybe it's just me who didn't read carefully when I booked, but nowadays it is assumed that there is a TV in rooms/units. Perhaps you can only specifically mention on the website that there is no TV in the guest house/rooms, and that the rooms are all part of a house. Furthermore, the service was really good and the room comfortable.
The photos on the website do not reflect the accommodation. Only 1 photo of the stairs to the x stables. The photos only show the main house, with the 1 nice and tidy bedroom. Nothing was indicated on the booking that we would stay in x stables. The place has no aircon, doors are barn doors that don't seal, no kitchen and the bathroom is old and didn't feel comfortable. There were flies everywhere - although I know it's a farming community, nothing was done to curb it. We had to use our own fly repellent.
Very well equipped family unit, silver clean and comfortable, with breathtaking view.
Very nice place to stay with good restaurants nearby.
Amazing accommodation.
Everything as expected. Beautiful surroundings.
Was ideal for overnight business trip.
Lovely, dead quiet, and very spacious accommodation. Very quiet location with beautiful nature. There are even braai facilities outside.
Thank you very much, will be recommended.
There was no TV in the room, as advertised. There was also no hairdryer (as advertised) so I had to go and ask for one. There were giant cobwebs in the rooms, so I didn't even want to use the lounge. The small fridge leaked water and it stank and wet the carpet. The porch and outside seating area is clearly never cleaned, so I didn't want to sit there either. The heater was broken and the evenings were freezing cold. The key broke off in the door. The toilet paper is the thinnest paper I have ever seen. I was also there alone and it is clear that they pushed me into the neglected corner. I couldn't park near the unit (like the other units) which meant I had to carry my bags all the way up by myself (no help was offered) and in the evenings I had to walk up that path alone.
It really needs a little more attention, like the doors have gaps, and it was very cold. It was pretty clean, but they could definitely do something about the decor. Kettle did not work. Other than that, it was good enough for just the one night.
Bed linen nice and clean. Had very poor communication beforehand. Braai area and crockery, but no kitchen.
Although this establishment is conveniently located, my experience was not the best.
Thank you very much for a beautiful clean place. The units are very well equipped and the view that greets you is beautiful. It can get a little cold, but each bed is equipped with an electric blanket and there are also wall heaters. It was really lovely to relax there on the way to Natal's coast!
Sal dit aanbeveel. Veraf Eenheid 5.
German restaurant was very cosy and the food was great.
The lodge is close to shops, restaurants, and craft stalls. I loved the décor and colour scheme of the dining room. The hosts were very welcoming and the rooms were absolutely stunning and comfortable. The venue is very quite and relaxing, which I really enjoyed.
We stayed in the family units. The place has potential. Needs some work on the gardens and needs a good cleaning. Otherwise, it's a very nice place to stay. Will definitely book there again.
Close to all amenities in Midlands. Enjoyable break!
See stars.
Friendly people, pleasant accommodation!
My husband and I had such a wonderful stay! The breakfast was absolutely delicious and Nikki is such a wonderful host! So fortunate to be able to have stayed there... even if only for one night. Will definitely be making a plan to go back soon!
Very nice and neat. It is close to nice little places to visit. Beautiful nature. Good cellphone reception and no DStv which makes it excellent to stay without the daily TV-watching.
We had a wonderful stay, very nice and spacious bedrooms, enough power points and storage space. Place has the most beautiful view. Neat and clean. Would stay there again anytime. All they could possibly improve is a washing up area by the kitchen area, but they wash all your dishes for you, so some people might not consider it necessary.
People are friendly and accommodating.
The hostess was very friendly and helpful. It was convenient and neat. We slept well there!
Nice place to stay overnight.
It was very clean and tidy, the owners welcomed us warmly and kindly. We will certainly use their accommodation again.
We were a family of 3 adults who went down for the Midmar Mile. Nottinghill Lodge offers a picturesque and most comfortable stay - the cottage was spacious and very clean and looked exactly like it did on the photos. About 26 km from Midmar dam, close to Piggly Wiggly and other interesting spots and eating places. We did not make use of the breakfast offer (R100 per head), but as there is a fridge, microwave and kettle we were able to rustle up our own breakfast. Cutlery and crockery is provided - unfortunately no running water in the kitchenette area. Lots of places to eat in the area. We will definitely return.
Very friendly service, comfortable room and nice quiet environment.
Manager, Ashleigh, provided excellent service and an excellent breakfast.
Notting Hill Lodge has a central location and is surrounded by picturesque landscapes. It's the perfect stopover and even convenient for a longer rest adventure. Neat and charming in the heart of the Natal Midlands with genuine hospitality and close to all sorts of interesting attractions.
We had a wonderful stay in the neat units. Very comfortable barbecue facilities and very friendly people.
The place is beautiful, rooms tasteful and elegant. The hostess was so friendly and welcomed us warmly. Place is highly recommended.
You will not be disappointed in your choice.
Well worth the visit. Will visit again. Gracious host. Comfy bed. Delicious brekkie.
We really enjoyed our stay in the 6 sleeper cottage. Beautiful gardens and very friendly reception! Will definitely stay here again!
Worth it. Highly recommended.
The moment we arrived we were welcomed by the family dogs. Notting Hill Lodge is located in a central area close to Michael House. The rooms are very spacious and warm. Breakfast was divine. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be back.
It really is a beautiful place. We were very happy with our stay!
Very clean, pretty and comfortable, just needs one more heater in the room for the winter cold! The electric blankets were a relief! Breakfast was really nice, would've wanted them to ask us whether we wanted more food. Really beautiful there!
Convenient access to the Meander. Beautiful surroundings, very peaceful.
Room is very nicely decorated and is very clean. You wake up with a beautiful view of a mountain. They are very friendly and hospitable and the breakfast is really very tasty.
Comfortable and affordable stay in beautiful surrounds with very considerate small touches that made one feel welcome, i.e. rusks and milk for coffee, tea etc. Will definitely come back to stay again. Friendly hosts, great privacy and atmosphere.
Price a bit high for what you get. Unit needs some renovation work.
We had my 84 year-old mother and her sister with us and they also had an unbelievable experience at Notting Hill Lodge. It was cold and rainy outside but wonderfully warm inside with electric blankets and wall heaters inside. Coffee, tea, and delicious rusks.
We slept well and the unit was neat.
Very central location. Large, comfortable rooms and everything was neat. The children enjoyed the variety of games!
Accommodation was comfortable and on the way back to Pietermaritzburg. Will be good accommodation for the Michealhouse Music Festival in April 18.
Very friendly reception, very spacious 4 bedroom cottage. Neat and clean.
I ask all guesthouses to please install power sockets to us the ladies for hairdryers at the mirrors. I find it to be a problem at most guesthouses, as well as at Notting Hill's flatlet where we stayed. I loved the electric blanket - a definite plus during the cold weather!
If you are looking for something more refined this place is not for you, but the space was good for a small family. The maintenance was very disappointing with a dirty pool, porch, bins not emptied, weeds in the garden and mold in bathrooms.
