Misty mornings, rainy days, hot chocolate, Pablo Neruda poems, and a crackling fire dancing in the background... that's what winter dreams are made of, well at least ours. This is exactly what Dullstroom has offered us on our visits. The quaint town in Mpumalanga transports you to the Scottish Highlands or rolling hills of the Cotswolds and even County Kerry in Ireland. With wet misty winters and mild summers, it's a great option year-round. Trout farms scattered across the green hills and countryside, small town feel with cozy restaurants, and small shops with handmade, quality crafts, are only some of the things we love about Dullstroom. If sleepy and cozy is not your scene, helmet-up for more adrenaline activities like quad biking, horse riding, rafting, rock climbing, abseiling, and zip lining.  Dullstroom is one of those unique places you keep going back to. Every time you visit it feels like a new experience which is perfect for a weekend breakaway or a holiday retreat. ...
