At Cathedral Peak Hotel, no two stays need look the same. Every day offers something different—exploring the mountains, sharing time around the table, enjoying the resort or simply slowing down and taking in the view.

This freedom to do as much or as little as you choose, together with warm hospitality and magnificent mountain surroundings, is what makes Cathedral Peak Hotel The Ultimate Drakensberg Experience.

Explore the options below to find the Drakensberg stay that best suits you. 

Family Holidays

For generations, Cathedral Peak Hotel has been a place where families come to make mountain memories. It is the kind of resort where children can run between activities, parents can settle into the ease of having everything close at hand, and the day can move naturally from breakfast to swimming, pony rides, games, fresh air and shared meals.

With family-friendly accommodation, meals on site, swimming pools, pony rides, a playground, playroom, children’s activities and open outdoor spaces, the resort gives families room to enjoy time together without needing to plan every moment beyond the property.

During weekends, long weekends and South African 4-term school holidays, organised entertainment adds even more fun for younger guests.

For many families, a stay at Cathedral Peak Hotel is filled with small, shared moments that become memories to last a lifetime.

Romantic Getaways

The Drakensberg has a quiet romance of its own, creating space for couples to slow down and enjoy unhurried time together. 

Romantic stays combine scenic views, peaceful surroundings, leisurely meals, wellness treatments and time outdoors. Spend the day on a gentle trail, unwind at the Wellness Centre and return to the ease of a welcoming mountain resort. 

It is a beautiful setting for couples to reconnect, relax and return home refreshed.

Group Getaways

Some memories are better shared. Bring friends or family together in one mountain resort, with space for conversation, laughter, activity and time away from everyday routines. 

Groups can hike, swim, play games, enjoy meals together, go horse riding or quad biking, play mini golf, spend time at the bars or simply relax in the mountain surroundings. A wide choice of activities and facilities allows everyone to shape the stay around their own interests.

First-Time Drakensberg Visitors

Planning your first Drakensberg visit? Cathedral Peak Hotel offers an easy and memorable introduction to the region. 

From one resort base, enjoy mountain views, guided walks and hikes, dining, wellness, swimming, outdoor activities and the freedom to spend time simply taking in the landscape. 

Discover several sides of the Drakensberg without changing accommodation or piecing together separate experiences. It is a welcoming, scenic and well-rounded introduction to the mountains, backed by hospitality that has been part of the valley since 1939.

Relaxed Mountain Stays

Not every Drakensberg stay needs to be filled from morning to night. Some of the most memorable moments are the quietest: lingering over a view, taking a gentle walk, listening to birdsong in the gardens or enjoying tea on the terrace. 

Choose mountain views, leisurely meals, gentle walks, birdwatching, time in the gardens, wellness treatments and fresh mountain air. With accommodation, dining and leisure facilities close at hand, there is no need to rush. 

For guests seeking scenery, comfort and ease, it is a welcoming base for a peaceful mountain stay.

Families, couples, hikers, groups, conference delegates and first-time visitors can all enjoy the same setting in their own way, supported by genuine family-run hospitality. 

Move easily between activity and rest, time together and quiet moments, without leaving the resort.
