1000 Hills Guest Lodge is situated at Botha's Hill on the scenic, 100 Hills experience, tourist route. Stunning views over the Valley of Thousand Hills, Inanda dam and Durban. With almost 360-degree view of 2600 feet above sea level it is possible to see the snow on the peaks of the Drakensberg as well as the ships anchored out at sea.

Five minutes from Hillcrest that host shopping centres, banks, etc. and also in close proximity to Chante Clair Hotel and Rob Roy Hotel.

The homestead was built in 1946, with beautiful raised wooden flooring. We offer a relaxed environment with a well-kept garden full of roses, a swimming pool and a fully licensed pub. Guests can enjoy the exquisite views over the valley and Inanda dam. We can accommodate thirteen guests in seven rooms, each individually and tastefully decorated. We serve a typical English breakfast and dinner is also available on request.

The name of Botha's Hill was derived from Carolina Botha who opened the Wayside Inn around 1849 on the old wagon route from the old Port Natal (Durban) to the interior to cater for the travellers and wagon drivers. Botha's Hill is known to have one of the healthiest climates in the world.

Cato airfield at Cato Ridge is also close by for those who wish to fly in. Co-ordinates are: S 29'41'54 | E 030'37'55 |Altitude 2640 feet | Main runway 35/17 800-meter grass strip
