All the animals made the place beautiful to stay. Waking up to feed the chickens and borrowing the dogs for a walk down to the river was wonderful. Virginia and John were great hosts, lots of helpful information, including a hand drawn map for the journey onwards. Highly recommend staying here, wish we could have stayed longer

The most amazing location with an incredible host. The cottage is a home away from home so beautifully decorated and comfortable. The host went the extra mile accommodating our late check in and helping us get our fireplace going. The views are incredible with snow capped mountains in winter!

The Whistling Goat is an absolute gem.
The Whistling Goat is an absolute gem. The owners are hands on and very friendly. We ate breakfast there twice and both times the food and the service was outstanding. We also ate a meal at SPEIRS. This was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend a visit. Other places where we ate were The Lemon Tree Bistro, The Olde Duck, Moorcroft Manor and The Grind. I do not recommend that you eat at The Grind if you enjoy good food. The service there was awful and the food was not good at all.
A trip up Sani Pass is an absolute must!! DON'T FORGET YOUR PASSPORT!! We, sadly did not have our passports with us. So, I guess we're going to have to go back for this adventure.
Unless you have a 4 x 4 vehicle I most definitely do not recommend that you take the sand/gravel road to Nottingham Road. It is definitely NOT a normal vehicle friendly road.

Electricity cut of many times during our stay due to the switch tripping. Drain clogged in shower. Carpets not vacuumed but only swept with a broom, which was evident in our continuous sneezing upon entering the room. Geyser switch tripped on checkout day and therefore we could not shower in our room. Rooms need to be better maintained and cleaned.

There are several resorts and a number of smaller accommodations in this picturesque valley, a hotspot for nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts. It is close to the famous Sani Pass, where 4X4 enthusiasts can ascend one of the highest and most scenic trails in Southern Africa. The town has charming shops and eateries, and many of the resorts offer a host of activities, restaurants and outdoor adventure options.

The area and the farm are breath taking. with the Drakensberg mountains just a short drive away. But you do not need to drive if you are looking for just peace and tranquillity its all around you. Underberg has some fine dining places if you wish to eat out.

We had such a lovely time, from the accommodation, the staff, the food and surroundings were great.
The only problem we had was that our shower was leaking in the bathroom, and the whole bathroom was under water. but the staff moved us to another room, the shower did not leak, but all the tiles was loose in this bathroom as well. Just think the bathrooms needs some maintenance

Potholes are ridiculous getting to underberg. So many & close to each other. Definitely cause damage to your car tires / rims.
Once to get to underberg, spar and other stores are convenient.
Being close to the berg is beautiful

Unpretentious town with several excellent restaurants (the Whistling Goat had the best food and the best prices)...with a Spar supermarket just down the road in nearby Underberg (15 miles/27 km.) For BIRDING and BIRDERS: exceptionally good for rare species (Flufftails - contact Stuart McLean [has a web site] for best bird guiding especially if you have your own vehicle. Many different habitats in the area...and the birds up at Sani Pass - many Drakensberg specialties. Having been north to bird at Wakkerstrom and the giant marshes in town and that area, we can say that Himeville is just as good (with many overlap species...and many only found at Sani Pass). Himeville has better restaurants and is 20-30% less expensive than Wakkerstrom. We had a wonderful time here.

It was my second time visiting this place and still enjoyed it. The kids enjoyed the activities offered at the property and the adults loved the hiking routes and the flowing river which was very refreshing. We even discovered a nice swimming spot along the river and we had a blast swimming there. The pool area is also very entertaining for the whole family. Breakfast and buffet supper was okay but could be taken a notch higher - on the other hand the pizza's were delicious.

It was the most plesant surprise - Underberg and especially Himeville was the cherry on the cake. The views of the Drakensberg is spectacular. Underberg has all the shops you need to buy groceries.
Himeville and the lake just outside the town and the museum is a definate "Must" We had a picknic at the lake.
Also used the local tour company to go up Sani Pass - what an experience. Words cannot describe the beauty and the experience we had. In Lesotho we visited a local lady, where our guide gave us a talk on their culture and we ate a nice hot "potbrood" The Highest pub in Africa was closed, but we had a great buffet lunch at a local restaurant in Lesotho. - Highly recommend to visit this jewel hidden in the Drakensberg. We went in the beginning of May and the autom colours was beautifull in all the different coloured oak trees.
