Meadow Lane Country Cottages

Meadow Lane Country Cottages is situated in a tranquil environment amid a park-like setting, just outside of Underberg. We offer five self-catering cottages surrounded by beautiful old trees and lively birds and our peacocks that love to display their colours. The gem of Meadow Lane has to be the dam, of which is home to weavers, moorhens and visiting ducks, geese and cormorants. It is also stocked with bass, where catch-and-release fishing is welcome. This is a small dam which is fun for the casual fisherman and kids. Enjoy a visit from our ponies and sweet little donkey, Rosie while having breakfast on your veranda. Spot the otters that swim between our dam and river! Trampoline, swings and monkeybars for kids to enjoy as well as a short zip line over the dam. Meadow Lane has its own airstrip suitable for light sport aircraft. Hangar space is available. Activities in the area include trout fishing, horse riding, walking trails along the river, mountain bike trails, hiking, tubing and canoeing to name but a few.

  • "Amazing scenery"

    27 November 2017

    "Meadow lane Cottages is an extremely neat and well presented establishment in the Drakensberg Gardens. I went up to do the Sani Stagger 42km race and felt relaxed at all times, with little benches placed perfectly in certain spots around the very big gardens with dams and a river running through it. The cottage itself was cosy and well sized with a lovely little veranda area to braai on. Next time with better weather and more time, I'll definitely spend more time on the perfectly cut lawns and soak up some of Underbergs sun."

  • "Definitely the attention to detail in the cottage!"

    22 October 2017

    "The cottage is neat and well thought out. Beautiful decorations and general decor. Small bathroom but perfect for a little getaway. I would have loved to have stayed for longer. Only suggestion would be to provide braai tongs in the kitchen :) we loved our stay!"

  • "An Enjoyed Weekend by all at Meadow Lane"

    19 June 2017

    "We spent 2 nights at Meadow lane country cottages. We were a big group of 14 and stayed in Grace, Hope and Faith cottage. Everyone was very impressed by the standard of the accommodation considering the reasonable price paid. The cottages are very comfortable and nicely decorated. The lake and hills of meadow lane are gorgeous. There is also lots to see in the surrounding area.My only complaints are that the bathroom in Faith cottage was very damp and the shower curtain didn't work well meaning there was a puddle on the floor to mop up after each shower. But aside from this it was a great stay and I would book again."

  • "Underberg is a lovely part of KZN."

  • "Awesome Time!"

    04 January 2017

    "We recently spent 5 nights over Christmas at Meadow Lane Country Cottages. We stayed in Grace Cottage which has everything you need - only thing that could've been better was a bigger fridge.<br/><br/>Lesley was welcoming, friendly and helpful. The property is beautiful and well cared for. We spent our days going over Sani Pass - 50km's away to the very top, Hiking Drak Gardens - 25km's along the same road and exploring the local area.<br/><br/>I was surprised how lovely our cottage was considering how reasonably priced it is, had expected less - fireplace worked like a charm!<br/><br/>Close enough to Underberg Spar - 5-10mins drive - to pop in for the occasional grocery shop.<br/><br/>Highly recommend Meadow Lane Cottages."

  • "Mmmmm......Disappointed"

    28 May 2015

    "We arrived at Meadow Lane tired after motorcycling down the Sani Pass and were given the inferior Cottage of the two. The fireplace did not work and although Lesley said she would make up for it by providing a heater it just left a sour taste in the mouth when the Cottage next door had everything working and no-one staying there overnight. Also the bathroom light did not work and only after repeated requests to move next door was it allowed.We were told that people were coming early the next morning but should'nt one be looking after one';s current guests first? We had a companion who had broken his ankle coming down the Sani Pass and was in a lot of pain and we were really disappointed. By the time we left at about ten the next morning the "early" people had still not arrived...."

    "I thoroughly enjoyed my Easter Weekend stay at Meadow Lane. It was really calm and peaceful and I was grateful for a warm and comfortable bed as the weather turned a little chilly and wet (which was actually quite nice as I felt very cozy in my cottage!).<div><br /></div><div>The whole area is so beautiful, and the gardens are lovely to walk though. Lesley has created such a quaint nicely put together set of cottages for visitors. </div><div>I felt welcome the moment I arrived. </div><div><br /></div><div>Will definitely return someday.</div>"

  • "The place to go and relax..."

    24 March 2014

    "Received an email from Lesley before we left to inform us about the expected weather and about arrival and keys etc. Were met on arrival by Lesley and her husband and assisted us to check in. They were very accommodating and helpful in recommending a restaurant close by for dinner. Very nice place to go and stay if you need some peace and quiet. Value for money!"

  • "Excellent service & beautiful setting"

    10 March 2014

    "Meadow Lane was absolutely beautiful, clean and neat. The hosts Lesley and Scott were warm, accommodating and most helpful. They managed to turn a disaster into a pleasure. We were caught in a hail storm while on Khotso horse trail. We were stranded, soaking wet and bruised but Scott and Lesley came to the rescue. Not only did they fetch us, they were back the next morning to help us get our car back from Khotso after we were stuck there. There kindness will forever be remembered and we will definitely be back soon ( just no horse riding ever again)"
