    Description
    Famous for its battlefield tours to Isandlwana and Rorke’s Drift. The Rattray family, pioneers of Heritage Tourism in South Africa, have created an opportunity for visitors to experience the extraordinary saga of the Anglo Zulu War. Set in the 2 000-hectare Fugitives’ Drift Game Reserve, it overlooks the battlefield of Isandlwana and is home to giraffe, zebra and numerous species of antelope and birds. The Lodge houses a veritable museum of memorabilia, artefacts and relics. Extremely comfortable and spacious cottages, each with a large bathroom and verandah. Tranquil indigenous gardens and a secluded swimming pool are set on the lip of the Buffalo River Gorge. Friendly, personal service and good food create a relaxed atmosphere. Fugitives’ Drift is a Natural Heritage Site and also offers game viewing, walks, horse rides and fly-fishing. Its 15-mile river frontage on the spectacular Buffalo River Gorge includes the monument and graves of Lieutenants Melvill VC and Coghill VC who lost their lives saving the Queen’s Colour. In addition to the Lodge, the nearby Guest House has a pool and offers charming, comfortable accommodation in individual cottages with views over the reserve. Tours available to all surrounding historical sites. Conference venue.
