Hartford House
Home to the family of the last Prime Minister of the Colony of Natal, the all-suite Hartford House hotel is situated on South Africa’s most famous Thoroughbred farm near Giant’s Castle. Chosen by the Rulers of Dubai as the location for their priceless stallions, the “gem of the Midlands” is remembered by chroniclers as one of the country’s most beautiful homes, with its award-winning gardens and acclaimed fine dining.
Location
From Hartford, one can easily get to many historical and cultural sites, including battlefields (Anglo-Zulu and Anglo-Boer), bushman cave paintings, Heritage parks, Drakensberg mountains, and the Drakensberg Boys choir, to name a few.
