friends

Amazing lodge with all amenities on hand. We were treated brilliantly from the moment we arrived. The battlefield tours were incredibly knowledgeable and respectful

Nothing to dislike

Absolutely gorgeous period accommodation. Views to die for!

Absolutely nothing

The tranquil view, spacious and elegant room layout

No TV for lone travelers in the room but the views are spectacular and absorbs all thoughts

Such a fabulous place. We stayed in Umzinyathi Farmhouse which was perfect for the 6 of us and an absolutely fantastic 1920's house with views over Islandwana. We had coffee in the morning and in the evening a glass of wine overlooking the stunning views. The beds and pillows were comfortable ensuring a good nights sleep. In the morning we went down to the main lodge for a healthy, hearty breakfast. All staff were friendly and professional and took the bother to remember our names. We took the Islandwana and Rorkes Drift tour which were led by knowledgeable guides, one Zulu guide had a grandfather and greatgrandfather who took part in the Battle which gave the tour an extra special connection. The food for lunch and dinner was fresh and tasty and we all came away relaxed and far more knowledgeable. Will visit again in a heartbeat as I am sure there are even more tales to be told and this time we will stay longer 2 nights makes you want more. Thank you Nicky, Doug and the Fugitives Drift Team.

Nothing its all fantastic.

Staff were excellent and very accommodating. They went out of there way to get to know us and made sure we had what we needed. Beautiful part of the country with such expert knowledge.

The bill at the end but it was totally worth it!

Great location in a large estate. We stayed in the farm house and Margaret was so lovely. We had dinner and breakfast in the lodge. The food and service was excellent. We enjoyed experience of dinner with the other guests

We loved staying here. The Fugitives Drift Grave walk was intimate and magical. Isandlwana was a sobering and moving experience. Such a vast open landscape. Rourke's drift was inspirational. The design, interior and exterior of the lodge and cottage are gorgeous and fit sensitively within the environment. It all feels very secure and well thought through. Lovely warm staff. Nothing too much trouble. We felt very welcome. We listened to the David Rattray audio books first and then to see it all in reality and hear the individual stories was so special.

I got a little confused about the payment process through the African Safari Collective but the staff at Fugitive's Drift sorted it out whilst we were there.

The entire facility was well presented, comfortable, and very attractive. |Staff were fantastic. The battlefield tours were amazing. Venue and history, combined with good old-fashioned customer care and hospitality, make for an outstanding stay!

The roads we had to drive on to get there! AVOID Tugela Ferry!!

The staff were friendly and the facilities were very nice. The food was very high quality and the tours that they offered of Isandlwana and Rorke's Drift were well done, balanced, and informative. We brought our two children and lodge staff were extremely accomodating. Everyone had a fantastic time. We honestly hated to leave.

It exceeded expectations in all aspects.

it’s stunning location, the friendliness and super efficiency of the staff and the intimate nature of a personally run family establishment which is more than just a business

Food & accommodation was excellent. The setting was idyllic. The tour guides were amazing and the support staff were courteous- nothing was too much trouble. Loved every second. Thank- you all! Perfect!

Wi-fi was ok in the room but could do with a booster. Good in the Lodge though.

We were made to feel really welcome by Douglas, Grace and all the staff. The room was lovely and the trip to Rorke's Drift was very special and Douglas brought history to life. Food was amazing too. To top it all, seeing the giraffes on the way to the gate was wonderful.

Be sure to hire an SUV or jeep as this place is quite remote and the roads are pretty bad.

Everything was perfect.

Nothing wrong, although would have liked to have bikes for hire and a swimming pool.

Amazing friendly staff who go out their way to make your stay awesome Doing the Rouke's Drift battle trip with Douglas is a must.

Every aspect of this place is truly outstanding - rooms, food, personal touch, staff and the tours

I can’t think of anything

The warm treatment from everyone there.

Nothing at all.

Wonderful service , great meals , superb setting , outstanding guides and friendly and attentive staff.

Nothing

The room we were given was to die for! The views were spectacular. The staff ( every single one ) were all friendly and great to chat to. We booked our stay based off the Battlefield tours they offered ( and the pics online ) and we would do it all over again. The dining was top class and the 3 pm tea was a special treat. They have an amazing library which you could spend hours upon hours in and the swimming pool is beautiful. This is a special place which one needs to visit! The Battlefield tours are incredibly captivating and a must for everyone! We will definitely be back!!

If we had to find any fault....wooded walkways to some rooms can be a bit slippery when rainy ( depending what shoes you are wearing )...but with a little bit of caution you will be ok!

Very good
