Pet Friendly
Antbear Lodge is one of the few pet-friendly places in the Drakensberg—beautiful, vast views of the Drakensberg with plenty of ground for dogs to roam. Walk for hours. Your dogs will be happy with many dams to swim in and horses to discover. Two of the accommodation units at Antbear Lodge are fenced in, making it easy to leave your dog behind if you want to explore some sights where pets are not that welcome. We don't have a policy that requires your pet to be on a lead as long as you know your dog won't chase our sheep, chickens, turkeys, ducks, cats, horses, donkeys, cows, and two pigs. We also have two dogs of our own. Please bring your dog food, bowls and bedding.
