Three Tree Hill Lodge
'Bringing to vivid life the struggle between one of the largest Empires in history and one of the smallest nations in the world'

| Three Tree Hill Lodge, a Natal Battlefields and Drakensberg Lodge. The lodge has been constructed using mostly wood and iron so as to resemble the housing kits brought out from Britain in the nineteenth century.. Each of the six twin cottages has its own bath, shower and verandah, with magnificent views of Spionkop - even from the bath. The Family Unit is a new addition to Three Tree Hill Lodge and is situated close to the main lounge/dining facility and in the opposite direction to the other guest suites (so there is no need for parents to fret about their children disturbing the other guests!) There is a shady sand pit under an Acacia tree in the garden with toys and books galore... |

| Whilst folks are out on tour, the children can play croquet, cricket, go for pony rides, swim, play scrabble or chess and go for nature walks. A healthy menu is provided at slightly earlier times than the adults to make your stay a pleasure for all! Three full meals and teas offer delicious, varied and elegant fare. Weather permitting, these are served on the cool wide verandahs of the main lodge. A viewing deck, swimming pool, wonderful walks and library offer you complete relaxation in this unique African setting. Previous owners Andrew Ardington, and the late David Rattray ( world renown Ango-Zulu War historian and owner of Fugitives Drift) had a vision for Three Tree Hill Lodge similar to what David had for Fugitives Drift: bringing to vivid life the struggle between one of the largest Empires in history and one of the smallest nations in the world. Three Tree Hill Lodge overlooks the Spionkop battlefield. The striking aloe spectabilis and the paperbark acacia dominate the vegetation. Three Tree Hill Lodge adjoins the Spioenkop Nature Reserve which contains white rhino, giraffe, zebra, eland, kudu, numerous smaller antelope and 270 recorded bird species. In November 1899, 13 500 British soldiers and 8 000 civilians were besieged in Ladysmith by Boer forces. As a result of the siege a series of battles was fought in the vicinity of Ladysmith. After 118 days General Sir Redvers Buller finally relieved the siege. This is the Spionkop Battlefield. On the hill behind Three Tree Hill Lodge, overlooking the picturesque Drakensberg Mountains, you will hear about the origins of the Anglo-Boer war. |
