Hamstead Farm Cottage is a unique, cosy, two-bedroom solar and wind-powered 80 sq m split-level guest house set in the grounds of the main dwelling on a working beef farm. There are spectacular mountain views of the Southern Drakensberg and a small stock-watering dam a few meters from the front door. This is a quiet and tranquil get-away where individuals, groups and families of all backgrounds and persuasions are welcomed.
Dogs are welcome by PRIOR ARRANGEMENT ONLY: there is a dog-proof fenced side garden attached to the cottage where they are safe to run free. Out of this enclosure they must be on a leash as there are many tempting distractions like hares and buck.
This space is truly far from the madding crowd, but only a half hour, gravel road journey from Underberg village. At night one can hear jackal calling and the sounds of nightjars and owls and during the day you might be lucky to spot an eland or a reedbuck on the adjoining hill.
The views from Hamstead Cottage are expansive: across veld onto the little berg and beyond onto the main Southern Berg.
A glass-fronted wood heating stove in the living room provides ambience and warmth on cold winter's evenings and the jetty into the dam is a romantic spot for sundowners on warm summer evenings.

Underberg Reviews
Amazing hospitality. Everything you need and more. Tasteful and comfortable. Loved feeding the animals. Beautiful outdoor area and scenery. Wallk down to the river.
Will definitely come back.
Mountain views and the breath of fresh air
It's far enough away from all the hubub to really feel like you're away from it all but also has a lot available to do if you so wish. The scenery is beautiful and the air is fresh!
Hiking, swimming, relaxing.
If you're in to adventure, then Underberg is the place to visit. There's no shortage of trails for running, hiking and mountain biking. It's close to the Drakensberg and Sani Pass.
Breath-taking beautiful! Well stocked convenience store (Elands Rest) and a few nice restaurants to have coffee. Just very cold, even in Nov.
Scenery in the surroundings.
For us its all about the hiking in the mountains.
Scenery!!
Beautiful part of the country!!
