Bancroft B & B is in Hilton, in the forested, evergreen hills above Pietermaritzburg, the capital of Kwazulu-Natal.

Offering 2 extremely comfortable, well appointed, luxury B&B suites, we can accommodate 6 people in a homely environment with a loved garden.

The Family Suite has 2 bedrooms, the Master Bedroom with a King size bed and the other with twin beds, both share an en-suite bathroom which has a bath with a hand shower, basin and toilet. This spacious Suite is cool and can accommodate 4 persons, and looks out to the gardens at the front and the back of the house.

The Double Suite has one bedroom with twin beds, and the en-suite bathroom has a lovely large shower, toilet and basin. Facing the morning sunrise this suite has a pretty garden outlook.

Both suites have DSTV, wireless internet, a hairdryer, a hospitality fridge, fans & a heater and tea and coffee facilities. The Family Suite has a microwave.

A hearty breakfast is the highlight of the day! We serve fresh fruit juice with a choice of 5 cereals or hot oats. A fruit, yoghurt, honey and muesli platter then a full English breakfast with eggs, sausage, bacon, mushrooms and tomatoes, or any variation that takes your fancy! We do endeavour to cater for special needs and preferences. Then, of course there is toast and jams and bottomless tea and coffee. So if that doesn’t keep you going for the day – nothing will! : )
