    It is actually on one of the most interesting battlefields of Colenso - the loop of the Tugela. We were able to walk the field and visit the graves of Irish Regiments.

Bridal Drift is situated on the banks of the mighty Tugela River on a working dairy farm. The cottage is located in the heart of many Boer war memorial sites and places of interest. Guests are welcome to talk walks or bring their own bicycles to explore the area. Bridal Drift is also in close proximity to many of the trail runs and bike rides that happen in the area.
We are a fun loving hard working family. Milking cows and growing crops is our main game.
Colenso is a small town that is rich in history. Centrally located between Winterton, Ladysmith and Estcourt. Access from the N3 freeway makes it a convenient stop for anyone traveling from or to Jhb, Dbn and the Freestate.
