Midway stopover with Drakensberg views and pyramid-shaped chalets

Accommodations

Pyramids Motel Van Reenen offers chalets set in a garden with views of the Drakensberge and the Natal landscape. Each luxury room comes with a private entrance and a private bathroom; the self-catering cottage has kitchen facilities for guests who prefer to prepare their own meals.

An on-site restaurant at the Pyramids Motel serves breakfast and supper, with a children's menu available for younger guests. The property also has a bar and a coffee house on site, plus an outdoor dining area for warmer weather. Next to the motel, the farm stall sells local goods such as biltong, spices, jams, and freshly baked custard tarts and chocolate croissants.
