Drakensberg (Winterton) – Tugela River Lodge
Tugela River Lodge is a self-catering bush camp, located on a private cattle and game farm on the banks of the Tugela River, near Winterton, KZN.
Situated in the shadow of the famous Anglo-Boer Battlefield of Spionkop, this rustic and petfriendly accommodation is the ideal place for a romantic getaway for 2, or a family weekend, or a large group get together.
