The Cavern Hotel is situated in a secluded valley in the northern Drakensberg mountains beneath the towering slopes of Hlolela and Sugarloaf Peaks. It is a natural paradise of indigenous forests, fields, hills and mountains, making The Cavern the ideal setting for an enjoyable few days. The Cavern offers standard, superior or suite accommodation and we recommend paying the little extra to take the superior rooms which have a better setting as well as TV and bar fridge. All accommodation is in attractive thatched lodgings with en suite bathrooms and magnificent views of the surrounding mountains with private patios to soak up the sun, listen to the sounds of forest streams and relax in the mountain wilderness.

The Cavern is an ideal walking hotel. After breakfast, you can join the hotel guide on one of the daily guided hikes into the hills. Study bushman paintings, view the unspoilt splendour or.swim in a 'berg stream before returning with heightened appetite for a tasty lunch. The Cavern offers a wide range of sporting activities. There's horse riding, tennis, bowls, volley ball, swimming or trout fishing. Relaxing and enjoying the view from the front lawn on a summer's evening, or sitting in the lounge around a cozy log fire in winter.

The Cavern is a family resort with loads of facilities for children, including pony rides, a jungle gym, trampoline, kiddies pool and play area, children's dining room and a nanny facility. Family accommodation can be either one large room or interleading rooms. Children under 7 eat separately in the children's dining room. At adult meal times a nanny is provided, free of charge, in the playroom to look after the children while parents are eating.
