Nestled in the Karkloof foothills, close to Albert Falls Dam, at the confluence of the Umgeni and Karkloof rivers, Ukuthula farm is a private game farm, just 20 minutes outside of Pietermaritzburg. We offer thatched self-catering chalets, ideal for families. Guests are encouraged to explore the farm at their own leisure. Walk, run or cycle our trails, taking in the stunning views, surrounded by nature and wildlife. Or soak in the sun at the River boma, where guests can swim, fish and braai. The farm is home to giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, kudu, eland and a variety of smaller game species. There is a rich bird-life for anyone keen on birding. The views from Ukuthula farm of the surrounding hills and valley are sensational, with each chalet having its own unique aspect on the hillside for guests to take in. Units are well spaced apart from one another, allowing privacy and a sense of escape from the day to day hustle and bustle. The self-catering chalets are ideal for families (2 Adults, 3 Children). Chalets all have an open plan layout with one queen bed on the lower floor with a kitchenette and bathroom. Upstairs is an open plan loft room with 3 single beds, ideal for children. There is a deck leading off the front with a private braai facility. The river boma situated at the confluence of the Umgeni and Karkloof rivers, and is a spectacular fishing spot (particularly Yellow fish), with braai facilities and a children's jungle gym, a space where the whole family can enjoy themselves. On the walking/running trails, the suspension bridge is a great experience. We have 5km, 10km and 15km routes, which all follow natural game paths.
Beautiful place to stay and escape the city. I would happy come stay here again. A braai on the lawn next to the river is a great way to spend a lazy afternoon
Lovely, rustic, cosy and comfortable venue. The view was outstanding!! Seeing Zebra pass by while lying in bed downstairs was a treat. The surroundings are superb - quiet and tranquil, yet the accommodation is not too far from Pietermaritzburg city centre. Everything we needed from a self-catering unit.
What a wonderful get away. Exactly what we needed. To get away from everything and everyone. Our Chalet was in the middle of the bush. Can't see any other Chalet, can't hear any cars, nobody around to trouble you. Just animals. we had Giraffe, Kudu, Eland, Blessbok, Njala, Impala, Zebra & Warthog around us. You literally walk among the animals. Went for walks around the farm, walked passed the animals within a 5m radius. What an amazing experience. Fish are jumping, so many fish. They just didn't jump on my rod. But maybe that's a good excuse to come again. Thank you for an wonderful week. We will definitely promote this Lodge.
Tranquil environment with activities by the river hut that can keep you busy for hours! Go for a hike or sit by the river and relax.
Being self-catering, we expect that guests will come prepared with their own food, beverages, ice, etc. However, we do have a gourmet frozen pre-made meal menu to order from ahead of time for your convenience and provide guests with a complimentary bundle of firewood. Restaurant/meals and shops are unfortunately NOT available on the property so please make use of these in Pietermaritzburg if required, an easy 20 minute drive (9km tar +7.4km gravel road). Albert falls dam is just down the road (a very popular destination for fisherman and water sports). Chalet units all have their own braais and necessary crockery and cutlery.
This is the perfect stop-over to break up a long journey if travelling from inland to the coast or vice versa. The farm is situated just 20 minutes (about 18km) outside of Pietermaritzburg, on the Otto's Bluff Road. Guests are welcome to bring their own bicycles, and are encouraged to walk around the property. Otherwise drive your own vehicles wherever you please on the farm. The farm has gravel roads, with the main routes to chalets and down to the river suitable for all regular vehicles. We do have some auxiliary roads on the farm that are better suited to vehicles with good ground clearance, but these are obvious to drivers on the property.
