Deep in the Southern Drakensberg, on the slopes of the highest mountain in the Cape, where the purest water springs from the earth, lies a haven from city life. Tiffindell Alpine Retreat is where melting snow keeps rivers running, while summer rains bring lushness to the valleys, in a terrain that resembles the Scottish Highlands.

From your first welcoming drink, through to your final goodbye, our friendly staff will look after you and see to it that you have a relaxed and unforgettable stay at this unique African destination. This remote setting with its panoramic view of rolling green hills makes Tiffindell the perfect place to unwind and enjoy nature. Join us for an escape you will not forget!

Stay in comfortable timber chalets. Tiffindell can accommodate 100 guests in cosy and comfortable rooms. Stay in our private or family chalets. Enjoy our wholesome breakfasts and scrumptious dinners. Light lunches can be ordered during the day. Bring warm clothes because, like in the Alps, it can snow at any time of the year. Although the snow does not always last, the feeling will!!
