By far the best place to enjoy peace, tranquility and scenery. Very close to restaurants, Sani Pass and shops for essentials. The unit is stocked with firewood for heating and the jacuzzi bath is a lovely surprise

Review of Giants Cup Wilderness Reserve
Reviewed 27 Jun 2023
A beautiful getaway in the Drakensberg mountains. Very serene, gorgeous spot. We loved our homemade bread delivered on the second day! We hope to come back one day (and catch some bigger fish). Thank you for having us.

Stunning setting surrounded by the beautiful southern Drakensberg with a dam on your doorstep. We stayed in Otter Cove unit which is a gorgeous unit with everything you need. Tash is most helpful with directions for walks and hikes and we look forward to visiting again.
Room tip: The last stretch of the road to get to Giants Cup cottages is quite rough and high rise vehicles are recommended.

Giants cup wilderness reserve is one of the most beautiful and stunning places we’ve ever had the joy of staying at. The views are simply breathtaking and the walks around the reserve and leading out onto the Giants Cup trail were food for the soul.
The birding is out of this world, whether you choose to bird from the the garden porch or down at the lake or any of the trails.
We were lucky enough to stay at both duck bay and otter cove cottages, both super pretty, modern, stylish and comfortable and spotlessly clean.
Natasha is a wonderful host, extremely knowledgeable, super friendly and very accommodating to our needs and our two very busy toddlers!
You have to see this place to experience the magic, it is very special!
Room tip: All three cottages have beautiful views of the lake and underberg range

Thank you so much for providing a beautiful escape haven! This really is a place to get away from the stress of life and to just unwind and be at peace. With the Drakensburg on your doorstep, the beautiful dam for awesome fishing, and wonderful rooms with everything you need, this place is a real treat!

I am not going to write a long review but please believe me when I say that this place is a real gem, especially if you want a quiet peaceful breakaway with beautiful scenery. And even better if you are a keen fly fisherman. The place is surreal and the facilities immaculate.
