A bit run down in places and student accommodation operations seem to be proliferating, but not to any great extent in the Ascot /Woodhouse Road area of Scottsville.

More info about Scottsville

Scottsville is a large suburb situated to the south-east of Pietermaritzburg city centre in the KwaZulu-Natal Province of South Africa. This neat residential suburb has a high concentration of the country’s top schools and the University of KwaZulu-Natal Pietermaritzburg campus is located here. The suburb is bounded by rivers and a canal running through the suburb with large sections of green space available to residents.

Scottsville buzzes with student activity which has shopping centres and strip malls, sports parks, a horseracing track and churches of all denominations, some housed in old Victorian-style buildings. The suburb is only a few minutes’ walk to Pietermaritzburg city centre.

2. Named after the long range rifle, the Bisley Valley Nature Reserve has designated walking trails along the river and to the dams. Expect to encounter giraffe, antelope and small mammals. Remnants of the old shooting range are still visible. The reserve is popular with birders and best of all, there is no entrance fee!

3. The Hexagon Theatre at the university hosts locally-produced entertainment spanning many art forms, from comedic plays to song and dance extravaganzas.

4. For a pleasant shopping experience, pop in to The Mall @ Scottsville. There are only just over 40 stores, however they are located in a spacious 14000m² centre with plenty of parking space.

5. Leave yourself enough time to titivate and remember to bring the binoculars on a visit to Scottsville racecourse for a fun day of horse racing. Race meetings are held most Wednesdays and Saturdays at this venue.

6. Strike it rich at the tables and slots at Golden Horse Casino or visit to eat at one of four restaurants on the premises. The complex has entertainment for children of all ages; an educare centre with child minders for the younger ones, a science and discovery centre and video games for simple, mindless fun.

7. A walk through the Pietermaritzburg city centre, rich in historic character, is a rewarding experience. The thriving city is somewhat out of place in its rural-like settings, however, it has loads of attractions and finding the best eateries and coffee shops is easy – look out for the student crowds!

8. Watch a game of premier league soccer at the Harry Gwala Stadium, Maritzburg United’s home ground. The nearby Woodburn Rugby Stadium hosts rugby matches from school level to major games, including those from the women’s league. A much anticipated annual match is the Voortrekker High School XV versus the Maritzburg College XV, billed the Boer War.
