Khotso Main Lodge – Rustic Mountain Accommodation

The main lodge is the heart of Khotso, a welcoming central meeting point where guests come together to share meals, plan their next adventure, and relax around the fire in the evenings.

Overlooking the jagged peaks of the Southern Drakensberg and the beautiful Underberg valley below, Khotso is the perfect mountain basecamp for outdoor enthusiasts and those simply looking to unwind. Spend your days hiking spectacular trails, exploring the mountains on horseback, or enjoying the fresh country air. As evening falls, gather around the braai with a cold beer, share stories, and enjoy the star-filled mountain skies.

Our accommodation is rustic, lively, comfortable, clean and affordable, offering a relaxed, down-to-earth atmosphere for travellers, adventurers and groups looking to experience the very best of the great outdoors.
