Our Story
Tucked away in the lush, tranquil KwaZulu-Natal Midlands, Rawdons Hotel and Country Estate offers a charming retreat for those seeking peace and serenity in a renowned countryside haven. Whether you’re a tourist, business traveller, bride-to-be, or weekend explorer, Rawdons welcomes you with exceptional dining—featuring à la carte, table d’hôte, and hearty pub menus. Our recently refurbished rooms blend prized antiques with modern comforts, delivering a perfect balance of rustic elegance and city convenience.
Set amidst sprawling grounds, the estate invites relaxation and adventure alike. Enjoy lawn tennis, meander along quiet walking trails, or arrange a clay shoot—perfect for team-building, intimate weddings, or unique birthday celebrations—on a secluded corner of our vast property. At the heart of the estate, our independent brewery crafts exceptional, naturally brewed ales and lagers, best savoured in the iconic Boars Head Pub.
In winter, the pub’s crackling fire warms guests with timeless hospitality, while its vibrant atmosphere makes it the ideal spot for unforgettable conferences and weddings. Rawdons Hotel and Country Estate isn’t just a destination—it’s an experience like no other.
