The Drakenberg Mountain Retreat is a stunning destination in the northern Drakensberg with breathtaking views. Accommodation at the Lodge is fully catered for breakfast and Dinner. Lunch can be …Moreordered and can be enjoyed on the patio or a picnic basket for your walk in the mountains. The rooms range in quality and size so chat to the management if you want something specific. There are 2 luxurious rooms for romantic couples wanting a totally private retreat. Our pet friendly rooms have enclosed gardens and our large family rooms are wonderful for relaxing with the kids. There are no fixed entertainment activities for the kids. There are marked hiking trails for the fit and not so fit. Enjoy the streams, rivers and just be captured by the quiet of nature. Bring some board games for kids and some of their books from home. Useful on rainy days. The Lodge is set high on a ridge overlooking the northern Drakensberg, the Maluti mountains and most of the central Drakensberg. A wonderful base from which to experience what this part of the Drakensberg has in store for you. The BARNHOUSE is our Self Catering option on the same premises. It offers accommodation for groups and conferences. Enjoy the "homely" atmosphere and caring hosts. Less

Please note the following: Compare the good reviews to the several bad one's. Management is not and never will be arrogant to any clientele as we are in a professional environment.
Some guests really go out of their way to rip a place off for example the terrible review from the so called Lama Pema women.
9.9 out of 10 times are bad reviews just a personal vindictive review, usually all statements are lies or over exaggeration.
'Aquariain' like your statement says a burger patty on bread. We have never nor will ever serve a burger patty on bread. Our kitchen are well trained and we source and purchase only the best quality food for our kitchen...regardless of price.
Dinner and breakfast are included in your room rates for Vergezient lodge. If I were able to show you what the average cost per person per meal is then you'll be shocked!! Yes I've actually worked out portions to the extent of the cost per slice of tomato, onion, potato etc.etc.
Each person has the right to their own opinion and unfortunately it's not possible, world wide to satisfy each and every visitor.
Our 147 excellent and 87 very good reviews can testify against our 18 average, 7 poor and 7 terrible reviews.
Some guests might be to wealthy for an establishment like ours were we pride ourselves as a homely lodge with delicous home cooked meals.
Some really wealthy guests are actually humble and down to earth were as the one's that's not used to everything money can buy is usually the one's to complain and over exaggerate.
Unfortunately Tripadvisor is 100% for guests and 100% against managers and owners. As management we have an inside side to Tripadvisor and all major booking sites with owners forums etc. We have read countless times that Tripadvisor don't even remove blatant racist reviews from guests on other establishments. As the whole world is aware of the racial issues of South Africa.
Kindest Regards,
