Sewula Gorge Lodge -
Accommodation by Estcourt, Central Drakensberg
near Giants Castle
Sewula
Gorge Lodge the Accommodation by Estcourt in the Central Drakensberg
near Giants Castle is a
glorious thatched lodge lives beside a rocky-river gorge filled with
cascading waterfalls (the main one is 20 metres high) and swimming
pools. The emphasis is on relaxation and seclusion and only one party
stays at a time. Staff live away from the lodge and there is
absolutely no one about except you, a very rare treat (even by GG
standards). For this far-too-low-really price, you can pretend you own
this truly heavenly place.

TIt
is self-catering, but with any domestic hardship extracted. Not only
does nature spoil you, but the staff do too, washing up, servicing the
rooms, lighting fires and bringing fresh milk, butter and cream down
from the farm. Under the thatched pitch of the main lodge roof are the
kitchen, bush-chic sunken sitting room, a giant fireplace, an
oversized chess set and much wildly original carpentry and functional
sculpture. Similarly lovely are the cottages, which have sleeping
lofts for children and face the falls. To walk
to an iron-age settlement, battle memorials and
great fishing spots.

constantly thoughtful. 100% (as the locals say)!
