Fugitives' Drift

Overview

The first, and arguably, still the best lodge in the Zulu battlefields. The main building is stuffed with artefacts and memorabilia – it is like staying in a museum.

Each morning and afternoon excursions are offered to these fascinating historical sights, where skilled guides bring the past to life. 

Spacious cottages, each with a private veranda, are located at either the Lodge or the Guest House, where there are swimming pools with views across the Buffalo River Gorge.

Our Thoughts

The first, and arguably, still the best lodge in the Zulu battlefields. The main building is stuffed with artefacts and memorabilia – it is like staying in a museum. The morning and afternoon guided trips to Isandlwana & Rorke’s Drift are an absolute must.

  • Library
  • Informative fixtures dedicated to highlighting the history of the Zulus
  • Dining Room
  • En-suite rooms

The dining room is housed at the Lodge. The food is incredible which is also well supported by the views. We know that views are not supposed to overshadow the cuisine, but get there at the right time for a sunset; it might do just that - spectacular.
