Rockwood Earth Lodge - Drakensberg

Rockwood Earth Lodge - Drakensberg Situated in the Champagne Valley, just past The Drakensberg Boys Choir, one finds this private and unique getaway home.

Situated in the Champagne Valley, just past The Drakensberg Boys Choir school, one finds this private and unique getaway home. As you meander down the driveway, you realize itโ€™s a rare find indeed, and pat yourself on the back. In front of you appears an uninterrupted view of Cathkin Peak & Dragon's back and you feel humbled by your smallness in comparison. Dragon's back gets its name from the out

line of the peaks and escarpment that combine to resemble the profile of a sleeping giant. The original farm house has been lovingly restored over four years by landscaper Wayne, to give you a sense of complete one with nature. It takes you back to the colonial times in this uKhahlamba World Heritage site when animals roamed free and tribal people beat out their daily existence, and wars were an eventuality to claim pieces of this splendor. Reed buck and Duiker take their refuge in the surrounding indigenous garden in the whispering of the winds through the grass. As night tucks everything away, a million billion stars appear high above you winking sleep tight, you are safe.

The Drakensberg region is proudly an important piece of South African heritage: With its breathtaking landscapes, rich biodiversity, and cultural significance, this natural treasure must be protected and preserved for generations to come.
Every visit reminds us why conservation matters โ€” so that those who come after us can continue to experience the beauty of the Berg โœจ
