Luxurious Farmhouse in the center of the Drakensberg

Situated against the Drakensberg Mountains, Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse is a romantic gourmet retreat and esteemed member of the “Best of KZN” group.  Managed by Richard and Mouse Poynton, a couple of seasoned gastronomes, this resort is guaranteed to satiate even the most insatiable appetites while providing a retreat from urban life.

Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse is situated in Kamberg Valley, a tranquil retreat near the Giant’s Castle Nature Reserve.  Located ten minutes from the resort, Highmoor Nature Reserve is a newly designated World Heritage Site, offering an exceptional experience for hikers and walkers.  Additional activities encompass horseback riding, trout fishing, and helicopter trips over the Drakensberg mountains.

The most captivating aspect of Cleopatra, however, must be the cuisine.  The dinner service is the pinnacle here, featuring seven courses of expertly crafted dishes that vary daily and seasonally.  Upon consuming the final morsel, a restful slumber in one of the 11 uniquely adorned rooms will undoubtedly affirm the establishment’s status as one of the premier gourmet lodges available.
