Customer Reviews of the Fugitives Drift Guest House
Wonderful atmosphere and the guides to the Zulu/British battlefields (Islandlwana and Rourkes Drift) have made a lasting impression on us. So much so that they are regularly topics of conversation even after some 9 months since we were there. Accomodation as above for Audacia Manor and the camaraderie at night when we all had dinner together was great. '5 stars plus' to Fugitives Drift

Like a house party. Guides were superb. Well worth the hair raising drive along rough roads to get there ( We did manage to get lost but were "talked down on our mobiles" back to where we should have been).
Thought the recommended wine at dinner was a little expensive compared with everywhere else but then again delivering it would not have been easy !
