From the shores of Durban’s North Coast to the foot of the majestic Drakensberg, we recently visited KwaZulu Natal province in order to seek out exclusive insider tips of the area for you. Without a doubt Hartford House made it onto our preferred African Moment list! This intimate boutique hotel impressed us from the minute we arrived. The spectacular lake-side setting, the exquisite gardens, the old-world feel of a stud-farm and the sublime cuisine inspired us in more ways than one.
The award-winning property is located on the edge of Drakensberg Mountains within the KwaZulu Natal Midlands and is surrounded by breathtaking nature. Upon walking through the massive teak doors, you immediately feel a sense of calm and well-being. Guests have a choice of luxuriously appointed suites situated within in the Manor House or within the garden with views over the pool or the rolling hills. Our personal favourites were the individually decorated Lakeside Suites that capture the history of the area in a unique and charming manner.
A large variety of recreational activities are on offer in the area. Whether you explore the surrounds on foot or by horseback, head out to visit the Drakensberg, enjoy a soothing treatment in the spa, or simply retreat with a book in amongst the rambling gardens, we can assure you that you will experience unforgettable African Moments at Hartford House!
Our conclusion:
Whether you are on your honeymoon, travelling with your family, a horse or nature lover, enjoy being active on your holiday or simply want to retreat from it all, Hartford House is a true gem in Zululand and the hands on team will tailor your stay to suit your individual needs!
