A peaceful and clean environment, great choice to stay indeed. Buller’s exceeded my expectations. Very helpful front desk staff. The breakfast was delicious and filling, the kitchen staff were very friendly and welcoming. Keep it up Buller’s lodge!

The room was incredibly comfortable. The view is stunning. Check in was not very friendly. We had travelled a long way. All she was interested in was getting a good order in!! We were unable to have our second dinner as I was not well. We let her know a few hours before. Curry. Could have been frozen or saved but we were made to pay for it. It left a bitter taste in our mouths. Not a very empathetic South African attitude. For that reason we would not return. .

We were very happy with our stay. Room was clean. Breakfasts and dinner was great. Enjoyed the pool when returning to the lodge after exploring the battlefields and a game of golf. The view over Ladysmith with the Drakensberg mountains in the distance was spectacular. The staff and owner was very friendly and professional. Really enjoyed our stay.
