Three Tree Hill Lodge - Luxury accommodation Ladysmith - KwaZulu Natal South Africa

Open spaces, large verandahs and colonial "wood and iron" construction create an ideal environment in which to escape and relax. Three Tree Hill Lodge overlooks the Spioenkop Nature Reserve, which contains white rhino, giraffe, zebra, eland, kudu, numerous smaller antelope and 270 recorded bird species.

Each of the six twin cottages has its own bath, shower and verandah, with magnificent views of Spioenkop - even from the bath.

Three Tree Hill's cuisine is a unique fusion of home and modern flavours. Enjoy leisurely meals and conversation on the cool wide verandahs of the lodge

The Lodge is conveniently situated within an hour's drive from the majestic Drakensberg Mountains and it's many resorts

On the hill behind the lodge, with the sun setting over the Drakensberg Mountains, the story of Spioenkop begins to unfold as you hear of the origins of the Anglo-Boer War

The following morning, as you tour the battlefield, the drama of Spioenkop (the bloodiest day of the war) comes to life.

Playing a role in this moving story were Louis Botha, Deneys Reitz, Winston Churchill and most surprisingly Mohandas Gandhi
