Stayed there for two nights Apr 2012 and lovely place with really friendly staff, and great atmosphere. Went hiking at Giants Castle and horse riding. More

A Very nice place with a helpful manager. We also did not see the owners, but the staff ran the guest house very well. The accomodations were very nice, clean, unique wood working and homey. The wood stoves were a treat. It is a bit pricey for what you get, but I didn't regret going. More

What a beautiful retreat - the accommodation, service, food, gardens, just everything was excellent. We had 2 days at the Antbear (definitely not long enough) during which we drove along or through the Nottingham Road. If I was going to repeat the experience of the Nottingham Road I would do some research on it as we just did not quite... More

We found Antbear to be a comfortable but quirky guesthouse. The service was quite hospitable despite the owners being away for the weekend which I thought was unusual for a long weekend when the guesthouse was full. The decor was quite quirky with most furniture having being carved with pictures of Anteaters and other decor. It was quite fun and... More

We drove to Drakensbergen from Durban for a one night stay there and it's well worth it. We stayed at the Antbear Guesthouse after reading the reviews on this site and we were very pleased with the accommodation. It's situated on top of a hill with a beautiful view onto the green valley with Drakensbergen in the background. We stayed... More

The approach is via a very bumpy country road, no doubt impassable in rainy weather. However, the arrival of your clay-covered car is rewarded by spectacular views of the Drakensberg foothills as the lodge is set on an escarpment. Its decor is unique in the proper sense of the word as the hand crafted furniture attests to no aesthetic other... More

My husband and I needed a break in the action and decided to stay at Antbear. It was exactly what I was hoping it would be - quirky, charming, relaxing and quiet. Since it is usually the two of us traveling, I really like to book places where there is communal dining. We find it so much fun to share... More

The drive there is breath taking and the roads are good. Once you've arrived you can look back out over the Drakensberg which is beautiful. The rooms are individual and in a garden setting so there is complete privacy. With big comfy beds, log fires, very cool bathrooms and all the trimmings we were completely relaxed - it suited us...
