Home from home! Beautiful!

Not even a needle in a haystack, except that we didn't stay longer...

Having stayed in countless accommodations, the Graceland Cottage unquestionably ranks among our Top 10. It is almost like a manor house, offering plenty of space, two large bedrooms, a great lounge, and a winter garden with a terrace that boasts a million-dollar view of the Drakensberg Mountains (Monks Cowl). We almost felt like we were on the "Out-of-Africa" farm from the movie — and all of this at an unbeatable price. It has all the amenities you could wish for, including a cozy fireplace (with firewood provided), braai facilities, complimentary tea/coffee/milk, a lovely pool area, and an adorable dog. Furthermore, it is one of the cleanest and most well-maintained accommodations we have ever stayed in, where you won’t find a speck of dust. The hosts are very kind and polite, always ready for a little chat and willing to help when needed, and they gave us great recommendations for hiking routes and restaurants.

Leaving.

Fantastic in every respect. Wonderful welcome. Old world charm. Biggest bedroom ever! Outstanding views. Activities in the area if you want them.

Main bedroom could have had a double mattress as opposed to two singles pushed together 😕

Stunning location and very well equipped for a quiet breakaway! Took our doggie along and she was so well received 😊

The views are unbelievably spectacular! The cottage is well located and comfortably furnished. The management team are very welcoming and on hand for any requests or advice of local attractions. Crystal swimming pool, hot showers and baths, comfy beds, spacious accommodation - make for perfect post-hike relaxation.

Location and view

What a wonderful place! We had such an amazing time, everything was just perfect. The location is brilliant, great views of the mountains, convenient for trips and close enough to shops. Accommodation was spotless and had everything you need for your stay and daily clean just helped to stay relaxed. Pool was clean and warm. The staff is very helpful and helped us with short trips. I can recommend the birds of prey show or walk to the waterfalls from Drakensburg Sun. And the bakery nearby has some mean desserts 🎂 We will definitely come again!

1. Location perfectly situated near all amenities which were required for our stay. 2. Welcomed by loving family, staff exceptional with regards to all our needs. 3. Definately a home away from home and will be returning. Will also be recommending to all family and friends.

The entire place provides serenity and amazing views of the mountains around. We couldn't stop taking pictures. The cottage, braai areas, and pool were kept clean throughout our stay. We are definitely checking in again in the near future!

Quiet, comfortable and clean in a spectacular setting.

The facilities were excellent. Rooms were cleaned daily, towels were replaced daily. Kitchen was well fitted out with all necessary appliances and utensils. Surroundings were well maintained with beautiful gardens attracting various birds. The views were excellent. Megan welcomed us very well and updated us on things to do in the area.

Wifi was a bit sketchy due to the bad weather and the TV audio was not working.

Very beautiful views, so cozy and a peaceful environment to get away from the busyness. The hosts are super friendly and helpful.

We came from very far just for the long weekend. We will plan better next time and spend a week plus.

Long before arriving at Graceland you know you’re going to have an amazing time as Megan has already furnished you with all possible information you need about the area and available activities. And then you get to Graceland and receive the warmest and friendliest welcome, surrounded by the unspeakable beauty and serenity of the undulating berg. We had the best family time here. One we will remember fondly for years to come.

It’s self catering , so you have to remind to bring coffee and tea etc, but they tell you in advance, so that’s not a problem at all!

The stunning view! There is a lovely lounge area at the swimmingpool with an amazing view over the Champagne Valley! Very spacious place with fully equipped kitchen, fireplace, 2 bathrooms and large living area! The hosts are so nice and give loads of explanation about restaurants and the area.
