You
have just found the perfect Drakensberg accommodation option. The
Antbear Guest House is a thatched, whitewashed cottage built high on a natural
platform overlooking the Bushmans River and Giants Castle. This cottage is a bit off the
beaten track and is more of an insider tip than just another bed and breakfast.
We cater for small intimate groups and never have more than 10 guests at a time.
It’s a laid back, lovingly cared for kind of place where you feel a sense of
happiness and peace. Honeymoon stays turn into anniversary commemorations just
as guests become friends. Even foreign tourists return for a second and third
taste. Pictures of the Antbear Guest House
accommodation
The
Antbear Guest House is situated in the foothills of the KwaZulu Natal
Drakensberg in South Africa. This guesthouse is an ideal place to base yourself while you
discover the Drakensberg region of KwaZulu Natal South Africa. We invite you to spend time here and share some of
our dream. We like to think that the Antbear is a place for feeding your soul
and rekindling your spirit. Built in the 1940’s the quaint and charming cottage puts its arms around you
and reminds you that there are things more important than everyday life.
The
name “Antbear” comes from its previous resident who lived under the
floorboards before its restoration just a few years ago. It’s filled with
gorgeous hand crafted furniture, wonderful wooden sculptures and a seemingly
never ending collection of artistic aspects to discover.
Plan for slow and decadent dinners by candlelight prepared by your hosts
Andrew and Conny. Sometimes it’s a Moroccan spread including a genuine Moroccan
tagine prepared on wood coals or maybe it’s a surprise of just how delightful
Chinese food can be. Breakfast is served with freshly baked bread and scones and
often it becomes a 2 hour affair. Antbear cooking
and our cook book
There is plenty to do in the area too. Walks in the Drakensberg mountains,
visits to bushman paintings, horse trails though a private game reserve, canoe
trips, canopy tours and the Midlands Meander to mention but a few. Explore
the activities of the Drakensberg and Natal Midlands
So if your looking for a place where art, beauty and time away are important
then Antbear Guesthouse is worth a second look.
