Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse is a gourmet getaway located deep into the KwaZulu Natal’s Drakensberg Mountains surrounded by the Giants’ Castle Nature Reserve.

Set on the edge of a trout filled dam, alongside the Little Mooi River, the soaring mountains rise majestically from the bottom of the garden.

There are 12 individually decorated farmhouse rooms all with spectacular views. Each room has a theme and is filled with many articles pertaining to the colour scheme and theme.

All rooms have comfortable beds with down duvets and pillows, fresh crisp, cotton sheets and mohair blankets.

All have en suite bathrooms, TV, tea and coffee making facilities, mini bars, heaters, fans and warm towel rails.  The comfort, peace and tranquility is untarnished by people and create memories that will take a lifetime to fade.

A friendly dining room filled with interesting artifacts and a large crackling fireplace invites you to enjoy a world-class meal.

A place in the country becomes a natural magnet to people who want to savour the flavours of home grown vegetables, farm fresh dairy products and home cured hams.

The passion and patience that goes into the preparation of food is reflected in the tastes and textures.

Walking, hiking, cycling, swimming in mountain streams, trout fishing, bird watching, horse riding and excursions to local bushman paintings are just some of the activities enjoyed on the farm and in the area.

With the frenzied pace of city life, the allure of an escape back to a more natural environment has grown stronger than ever.

Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse turns the dreams of an idyllic rural break into reality, with a superb collection of seasonal foods served in a unique country atmosphere.
