About Buckswood Hilltops
Perched on top the world, sitting on a cushion of cloud Buckswood Hilltops overlooks the stunning African scenery with its famous ‘red dust’. There really is no better place to while away your African evenings enjoying the panoramic views from the terrace, dipping your feet in the hot tub and letting the house staff cater for your culinary delights. Buckswood Hilltops is a substantial development comprising of a beautiful thatched main house that has four double bedrooms and a number of annexed lodges that can sleep up to 30 (all ensuite).
The house is designed to give you a comfortable stay and offers a flexible space that can be arranged for any number of possibilities such as group visits, conferences, team building trips and family get-aways to name a few examples. Equipped with wifi and run by friendly house staff, your enjoyment is our pleasure.
With the stunning views, guests can wake up to an African sunrise and after a long day of adventure, return to the house and spend the evening sat on the veranda, drink in hand, watching the sun go down with the ambience of the African dusk. After the sun sets, the stars come out in a magnificent display, sparkling across the clear sky and merging on the distant horizon with twinkling lights from the villages in the valley.
We want you to just feel at home …

GoodBased on 39 reviewsKaren Bassett17/04/2024We stayed over for a night at Buckswood Hilltops. We were welcomed with complimentary coffee and muffins after we were shown our room. The staff were all so friendly and willing to assist in any way. It was a cool evening, so they made sure there was a fire lit in the lounge, for us to enjoy. Their menu is reasonable and food was great. The view was beautiful. The front office manager took time to tell us about the Lebombo mountain range and the landscape we were looking onto. I will definitely recommend Buckswood Hilltops to travelers.Riaan Fourie06/04/2024Great place to stay! Beautiful views! All the low reviews are from many years ago, go and check for yourself! It should have a much higher rating. We have an amazing stay and it was large because of the staff member Smalls - he made our experience a very positive one! Will for sure be back!Nicholas sibusiso17/03/2024Best Mountain ViewZweli Maziya16/03/2024Yinhle indzawo never yinhle kakhuluMalangeni Phumlani Dlamini16/03/2024A nice quiet place, you can even hear yourself thinkBhekiwe Magagula16/03/2024It a nice and quiet placeZakhele Dlamini14/03/2024Buckswood hilltop’s.

The SHORT gravel road leading to Buckswood is narrow with a lot of jagged rocks but it is drivableKeta Vasadze10/08/2023An amazing place with the best views, staff and food. The best place to experience real Swazi culture.
