Saligna Dam View Guest House

Thatched Farm Escape in the Northern Drakensberg 🌄

10 guests · 4 bedrooms · 6 beds · 3 baths

Nestled in the heart of the Northern Drakensberg, this charming thatched cottage — with an additional rondavel — offers a peaceful farm getaway. With private lawns stretching to the edge of a serene dam, a fenced swimming pool, and mountain views all around, it’s a haven for couples, families, or groups seeking a true country retreat.

Whether you’re here to relax by the pool, explore the breathtaking Drakensberg trails, or simply unwind in the fresh mountain air, this farm stay combines comfort, charm, and a touch of adventure.

🌿 About the Space

The main guest house features two double rooms, a smaller kiddy room with two single beds, and an extra rondavel just outside with a king bed (or two singles) and bunk beds for children. Each space has its own character and cozy touches, while the outdoor pool and garden invite long, lazy summer afternoons or sunset gatherings.

Inside, the open-plan living area is equipped with a kitchen, washer and dryer, and an indoor fireplace for cooler evenings. The cottage can comfortably sleep up to 10 guests, though it’s perfect for a romantic getaway for two as well.

Here, time slows, nature speaks, and every moment feels like a gentle escape from the everyday.
