Fantasies! Beautiful place with the most beautiful scenery. The horse riding was definitely a highlight, everyone really enjoyed it.

Pragtige plek met mooiste natuurskoon. Die perdry was vir seker 'n hoogtepunt, almal het dit baie geniet.

Homely and always fun. Unbelievable stay full of action yet always comfortable due to the hospitality of staff. Within 10 minutes of arriving I was curled up on the sofa with one of the dogs there, a beer in my hand, having a lovely welcoming chat from the manager. Everything felt informal and inclusive which helped massively to give a homely feel for my stay. The staff there don't hesitate to help with anything, so with their help I was easily able to go mountain biking on my second day there. On my third day there I did the 5-hour horse trail they offer which was undoubtedly the highlight of all my travels in South Africa. They do a great range of rides fitting to all abilities. I definitely want to come back and do the 3-day tour they offer around the whole of the mountains. To anyone wanting a stay somewhere that includes amazing animals, very accommodating staff, and endless scenery, this is the place for you!

Calm peaceful recovery. Terrible good campsite and facilities. Very nice to hang out in the common living area and sit warm by the fireplace. Surrounded by beautiful views and places nearby to visit.

Kalm rustige herstel. Verskriklike goeie kampeerterrein en geriewe. Baie lekker om in die gemeenskaplike leefarea te kuier en warm by die kaggel te sit. Omring met pragtige uitsigte en plekke naby om te besoek.

Best campsite in the southern Drakensberg. Had a wonderful time camping at Khotso Lodge. The camping area is large and neat. Bathrooms are nicely laid out and clean, with plenty of hot water. There is so much to do at Khotso, the trails, horse riding and tubing were an absolute highlight! We can't wait to go again.

Beste kampplek in suidelike Drakensberge. Heerlik gekamp by Khotso Lodge. Die kamparea is groot en netjies. Badkamers is mooi uitgelê en skoon, met baie warm water. Daar is soveel om te doen by Khotso, die trails, perdry en tubing was 'n absolute hoogtepunt! Ons kan nie wag om weer te gaan nie.

Peaceful and picturesque getaway. My family and I had a great time staying in the rondavel. The view was breathtaking and the atmosphere was peaceful. A nice break from the busy city life. I would also recommend that guests go tubing, because it is a fantastic experience! Next time we would love to do the horse riding.

Rustig en prentjiemooi wegbreek. Ek en my familie het baie lekker gebly in die rondawel. Die uitsig was asemrowend en die atmosfeer was rustig. 'n Lekker wegbreek van die besige stadslewe. Ek sal ook aanraai dat gaste die tubing gaan doen, want dis 'n fantastiese ervaring! Volgende keer sal ons graag die perdry doen.

Wonderfully central but felt like we were tucked deep in the mountains. The host really was so accommodating and helpful. We went over the weekend of 20th Sept 2024 and there was a lot of snow that cut out the electricity, which was okay as we had a gas stove and fireplace. They allowed us to shower at the main building as we didn't have hot water. We have stayed at many places in the area and found this to be the best.

Awesome. I was a bit sceptical when we arrived. We were met by the incredible host, who allayed any concerns that we had. Our stay was thoroughly enjoyable. We met other visitors from abroad who became friends. I would recommend the site to other people. We would definitely be back. Thank you for the warm hospitality.

Picturesque, peaceful, friendly. We went to camp at Khotso for 2 nights. Upon arrival we were greeted very kindly. Khotso itself as well as the surrounding environment is incredibly beautiful and offers the soul a very peaceful experience. The campsite is neat, clean and every pitch has a power point available. The ablution facilities are neat and clean with gas geysers that offer delicious hot showers in the cold weather. There is a communal kitchen with a fridge that can keep the necessary items cold. There is also a sink that can be used. Bring your own cutlery, pots and pans. Khotso offers an honesty bar where you can choose from a few alcoholic drinks, soft drinks, tjippies and tchokkies and then only pay your bill at the end of your visit. They also offer large bags of wood for R80 to make a nice atmospheric fire. However, note that this wood is not the best for embers to grill on (loses its heat quickly) but is great wood for cozy flames. Also feel free to visit Khotso's coffee shop (Balam River Deck), which is a few hundred meters away from the farm. The coffee shop makes delicious coffee and sits on the banks of the Mzimkhulu River which makes for a picturesque view. Overall, our time at Khotso's campsite was just a great pleasure and pleasant experience and the staff's friendliness and quick chats make you feel very welcome.

Beeldskoon, rustig, vriendelik. Ons het vir 2 nagte gaan kamp opslaan by Khotso. Met aankoms was ons baie vriendelik gegroet. Khotso self asook die omliggende omgewing is verskriklik mooi en bied die siel 'n baie rustige ervaring. Die kampterrein is netjies, skoon en elke staanplek het 'n kragpunt beskikbaar. Die ablusiegeriewe is netjies en skoon met gasgeysers wat heerlike warm storte bied in die koue weer. Daar is 'n gemeenskaplike kombuis met 'n yskas wat die nodige items koud kan hou. Daar is ook 'n opwas wat gebruik kan word. Bring maar jou eie eetgerei, potte en panne. Khotso bied 'n eerlikheidssnoepie waar mens van 'n paar alkoholiese drankies, koeldranke, tjippies en tjokkies kan kies en dan jou rekening eers aan die einde van jou kuier kan betaal. Hulle bied ook groot sakke hout teen R80 om 'n lekker atmosvuurtjie mee te maak. Let egter dat hierdie hout nie die beste is vir kole om op te braai nie (verloor vinnig sy hitte) maar is wonderlike hout vir gesellige vlamme. Maak ook gerus 'n draai by Khotso se koffiewinkel (Balam River Deck) wat so paar honderd meter weg is van die plaas. Die koffiewinkel maak verskriklike lekker koffie en sit op die oewer van die Mzimkhulu-rivier wat sorg vir 'n beeldskone uitsig. Algeheel was ons tyd by Khotso se kampterrein net 'n groot plesier en aangename ervaring en die personeel se vriendelikheid en vinnige geselsies laat mens baie welkom voel.
