Was upgraded to the Lodge on arrival. It really is seven star. The staff are amazing. Wonderful view from our huge room. The tour guides were special and brought the two battle sites alive for us.

Baby zebra, giraffe, gnu and a flock of buck happily grazing along the road. The outdoor shower at Umzanyathi farmhouse was such a treat.

We stayed in the cottages furthest away from the Lodge. Therefore, passing and having selfies with the family of giraffes and zebras a few times a day made the stay even more memorable

The host family and staff are very kind and approachable and take attention to detail. I would definitely recommend Fugitives Drift Lodge.

- Avg. price/night: £152.239.7Scored 9.7ExceptionalRated exceptional· 73 reviewsFugitives Drift Lodge does hospitality with a capital H. From the minute you arrive you are welcomed as part of the family. Our highlight was talking with the family, the staff and the other guests, not just on the tours but also during the hosted lunches and dinners. We learned a lot from them on a variety of topics far wider than the military history for which they are famous. We also enjoyed both guided and unguided walks on the estate and browsing the exhibits in the museum and reading room.
MichaelYoung couple - Avg. price/night: £152.239.7Scored 9.7ExceptionalRated exceptional· 73 reviewsWe arrived to find we had been upgraded to the main lodge. Good start! The welcome was really warm and friendly and the food was exceptional. We liked the idea of communal dining so that we met other people straightaway. The two tours to Rorkes Drift and Isandlwana were interesting and thought provoking. The guides were fantastic storytellers and made the events come alive. Fantastic trip overall.
