Drakensberg Sun<br />
Following an adventurous morning – two-wheel mishap and all – we<br />
were whisked off to Tsogo Sun’s Drakensberg Sun Resort, situated<br />
in a beautiful valley surrounded by the central Drakensberg near<br />
Winterton. This was also the venue where we would attend the<br />
launch of SA Tourism’s Tourism Month campaign by the Minister<br />
of Tourism, Mmamoloko Kubayi-Ngubane.<br />
As their brochure states, the Drakensberg Sun Resort is indeed<br />
‘one of the world’s most scenic holiday destinations’. This familyfriendly<br />
mountain resort is the perfect place from which to explore<br />
the region’s many fascinating attractions – or simply to relax and<br />
unwind in one of South Africa’s most picturesque settings.<br />
The resort offers guests a choice of 78 beautifully furnished<br />
en-suite rooms. Accommodation options at the resort include<br />
Standard Rooms, Superior Rooms, Executive Rooms, and the<br />
luxurious Presidential Suite. The resort’s rooms echo the natural<br />
splendour of the surrounding forests and mountains and provide<br />
spectacular views of the Cathkin Peak area, one of the main<br />
attractions of the Drakesnberg.<br />
The resort is also well suited for corporate activities from team<br />
building in the mountains to conferences in relaxing surroundings.<br />
The hotel offers professionally managed conferencing facilities<br />
suitable for all types of events. For even more comfort there’s also<br />
a spa, beautiful pool, restaurant offering delicious fresh cuisine,<br />
and outdoor adventure activities amidst the lakes, mountains and<br />
ancient forests of the Drakensberg. Offering breath-taking views<br />
with utter tranquillity and the joy of discovering one of the world’s<br />
most spectacular destinations, the Drakensberg Sun Resort has<br />
something for everyone. (Contact Drakensberg Sun Resort on Tel<br />
