THE KHAYA NDLOVU RESTAURANT
Owning a breath-taking view of the Klein Drakensberg mountains, the alfresco restaurant that operates from the decked terrace at the Khaya Ndlovu Manor House is the perfect spot to enjoy a delicious meal, high-tea, tapas, or sundowner. In fact, it is beyond compare! The dining area overlooks a wetland that serves as a natural playground for many bird and game species, and it is not unusual for a visit to the restaurant to turn into an exciting game viewing experience.
In addition to the delicious cuisine on offer, it is also about taking advantage of the beautiful Lowveld weather, the peace and tranquillity of the lush Khaya Ndlovu garden and the romance of the filtered, shifting light that seeps onto the deck through the overhanging branches of the Marula and Wild Pear trees.
