Sandford Park Country Hotel

Situated with views of the foothills of the Drakensberg Mountains, Sandford Park Country Hotel is a historically steeped resort with an eclectic mix of old and new, romanticising one’s senses. Established in 1850 as a British garrison for troops sent to relieve the besieged town of Ladysmith, Sandford Park allows the history of the region to narrate the essence of the hotel, encapsulating its personality. Located conveniently off the N3 between Johannesburg and Durban in Bergville, Sandford’s 41 hectares of unsurpassed natural beauty and tranquility takes advantage of the dramatic views of the seductive Berg. Visitors are offered an opportunity to escape to a country style hotel, with activities from bass fishing and bird watching to nature walks amid natural springs. Guests are accommodated in 50 tastefully decorated and spacious en-suite rooms, each with breathtaking views. Guests can choose from 26 traditional rooms furnished in charming cottage style with picturesque garden and dam views. All traditional rooms have thatched roofs to ensure that the rooms are cool in the summer and warm in the winter. The 24 executive rooms are finished with modern fittings, have bathrooms with separate bath and shower, DSTV and private patios with stunning views of the berg. Sandford’s pub has a folklore reputation as the “best in the Berg”. Brimming with charm and character, the watering hole reflects its 150-year history with memorabilia from passers-through who have visited this warm and unforgettable meeting spot. Conference and wedding facilities are available for a stunning Berg “I do” venue or a tranquil Berg business conference.
