Gooderson Natal Spa Hot Springs & Leisure Resort

Escape to a rejuvenating oasis at Natal Spa Hot Springs & Leisure Resort, situated on the road between Vryheid and Paulpietersburg on the Battlefields Route.

Set on 800 hectares of KwaZulu-Natal bushveld, the Resort has access to approximately four kilometers of the Bivane River flowing through the property.

Famous for its serene location and the natural healing properties of the hot pools: at a source temperature of 37°C, the pools discovered in 1880, provide a constant supply of beneficial waters for guests and are well known for their anti-oxidant properties. Claims made by Alkaline Springs, in Europe, is that the South African Medicinal Springs are superior in mineral content, temperature and other essential elements.

Although the main attraction on the Resort is of course the hot mineral pools, another popular attraction is the great 110m long supertube.

For the active there are quad bike trails, squash, tennis, hiking, birding trails, mountain bike trails and fishing. Indoor, relax with some snooker or table tennis.

Highlights in the hotel include an airy dining room and terrace with lovely views of the garden and pool areas, among others. Buffet breakfasts and dinners or a’la carte dinners are on offer. Light meals are available from The Bistro, including snack platters, teas and scones, whilst the Raptors Restaurant bar is open from 10am until late which is a welcoming respite where guests can enjoy drinks and snacks. The Boulders Bar alongside the heated pools also offers another venue to meet up.

The accommodation throughout the Resort is tastefully decorated and each room has tea/coffee making facilities and TV, offering 11 Hotel Bouquet DSTV channels.

Set amongst giant Cambrian granite boulders that are millions of years old, and with abundant birdlife, the Resort is also an idyllic and beautiful setting for wedding receptions and conferences. Three well-equipped conference rooms, which can accommodate between 10 – 120 delegates, are available.

The Wellness Centre & Beauty Spa are also popular attractions on the Resort and offer guests revitalising and pampering massages and treatments to indulge in.
