Excellent Stay

All round excellence. The accommodation was really good and very comfortable with fabulous views of the mountains. The room was well appointed and clean. The meals were superb and my wife's request for gluten free meals was dealt with amazingly, the chef is an absolute gem.

Just LOVE Montusi

Montusi Mountain Lodge was great and we absolutely love the mountain biking in the whole area. All Out Adventures is really close by to hook up on the trails and the centre is a wonderful place for children of all ages. The food at the Lodge was delicious and we were made to feel very welcome at all times. The views of the mountains all around the lodge are beautiful.

Surprised

We often go to The Cavern. This time we decided to stay at Montusi. What a wonderful surprise. Lovely setting.
Great accommodation.
They had very good rains and one can hardly describe the different colours of green. Views over the mountains one can keep on writing stories about. Great cappuccino. Had a good rest and visit. 2nd place of many happy returns.

Its the small things that make a stay better than excellent

We stayed at Montusi for 5 days and could have easily stayed longer.

What made our stay better than excellent:
1. The activity pack with colouring pens for my little one. Happy children = happy parent.
2. Daily guided hikes that accommodate all guests including children
3. Management & staff who are genuinely interested in their guests and making the stay fabulous
4. Excellent vegetarian and vegan food options
5. Guided evening runs

I am hoping to be back in the near future!

close enough to the berg to have great views

Went hiking in the Royal Natal National Park. Stayed here as the rooms were much better than that in the park itself. About a 15 minute drive through the village and fields to the park entrance gate. The chalets are fairly modern, with good finishes. Lovely views of the lower berg and amphitheatre . The food was much better than expected, and the service was personalised and good. Management were on-site and responsive. Will stay there again
