We spent an amazing night at Antbear Lodge. The staff were so friendly and accommodating.
The food was delicious, and the cave was beautifully decorated and a real novelty to sit on the deck and watch the sunset. Definitely recommend a stay. 

VERY IMPRESSED

Spent the weekend away with a friend in KZN at one of the most unique accomodations available - an actual cave! We stayed in the cave and had such a relaxing weekend. Everything was so amazing! From the views of the mountain to the private jetted tub. The room is equipped with a little coffee station, a mini fridge, a fireplace, chairs and a table, a separate shower and bathroom, spacious bed, hammocks and tub. (Some people may not like that the separate bathroom has no curtains but when the shower gets going it mists up and provides you with some privacy) Included in our stay was a 3 course dinner - which we got to have on the deck of the cave as well as breakfast, which were all well cooked and delicious. The room is serviced daily.  There are very easy walks that you can go on and a hand carved chess set which is so fun to play with, the property itself is nice to walk and look at. This really is a unique place to relax and leave behind the city life! The road to the accommodation was perfectly fine for my little Suzuki Espresso but it does lead to a dirt road in the mountains. The dining area was very cute and rustic with each room having their own hand made table and chairs to dine at. You will also be able to connect to the wifi here. There are other unusual units available and the property is per friendly so you can bring your fur baby along! We found everything to be adequate during our stay and definitely recommend a visit.

Girls weekend away

Antbear Lodge was a wonderful experience from beginning to end. We stayed in the lovely Luxury Cave. Nolu and Andile were excellent hosts. The breakfast and dinners were well prepared tasty and beautiful presented. Would definitely recommend this couples retreat.

Antbear lodge a lovely couples retreat.

We loved our stay in the special cave! It was cooler than the outside temperature and the view of the valley was spectacular! Antbear is a quaint and creative place, with wood mechanisms to open and close doors and windows...very fun! Staff were accommodating and friendly and the atmosphere was relaxing and one with the earth. Thanks for a lovely wedding anniversary spend in The Cave!!

Antbear Lodge and the luxury Cave!

It was my second time staying at Antbear Lodge. This time with five friends from Germany. All of us loved the unique and individual lodges. Each one was different with beautiful wood work (so has the main house) and a fire place. The food was delicious and high quality. Everything was clean. The staff very friendly. The view from the houses and the surrounding landscape was beautiful. 
The only tricky part were the directions which did not seem to match all the time. Good that we had an online map. I would definitely recommend it. Stay a few nights to relax. 



Beautiful place with great views and delicious meals

We had an incredibly tranquil stay at Antbear lodge! Andrew and his team upgraded our accommodation to the Cave, and gave us a discount. The lodge was quiet when we stayed there so we got really exclusive treatment! We’ll be back!!

Highly recommend!

I was super impressed with Antbear! The staff are super friendly, the woodworking are pieces of art and the food is delicious. Make sure to take a walk around the beautiful ground and enjoy watching the animals.

Tranquil weekend away

Friendly staff greeted us and took us to our "Cave".  The room was well appointed and fitted in well with the "quirky" nature of the Lodge whose owner has over the years done all of the woodwork that could, because of the nature of the work be described, as wood art.  The windows, doors, lighting etc are all amazing and give the lodge its "Out of Narnia" character - just a feeling that we got!  We were on a DB&B basis and all of our meals were superb.  The location of the Lodge is also ideal providing access to the Midlands Meander and the Central Drakensberg.  We spent 1 very satisfying day at the Lammergeier hide at Giants Castle.  The only negative I suppose is the condition of the roads in the area; but this is general problem in South Africa.  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Antbear and would recommend this tranquil destination very highly.  We actually commented that it could be a Retreat.

The Central Drakensberg

We slept @the cave in the Antbear lodge. We had a warm and pleasant welcome by the staff. The view from our sun deck was spectacular. We had a lot of privacy. The cooking was amazing and authentic. The place is almost self sufficient and good for the environment.
Special thanks for the Antbear staff.

Cave experience

Stunning venue that I will definitely be returning to. The staff and owners are lovely and the rooms and views speak for themselves. Even when the weather wasn't on our side we had a wonderful time and returned home feeling refreshed and relaxed.
