Been up 'til dawn way too often lately? Desperate for a break and a few early nights? Pitseng might just be the ticket. It's set among the mountains of Lesotho — nice and off the beaten track. (We reckon you'll feel so relaxed, you'll be under the covers by sunset!)
It's situated 75 kilometres away from Maseru and its busy streets.
There's no need to venture too far to find some pleasant natural sights. Hop in the car and head in the direction of Katse Dam, 45 kilometres away from Pitseng, for a chilled-out day. Or perhaps Bokong Nature Reserve is more your thing? It sits just 20 kilometres away.
The best snow of the day is in the morning, so you ought to set your alarm early the night before heading to Afri-Ski.
Like the sound of the Hlotse Mosque and Leribe Stone? These brilliant sights are very close to the middle of Hlotse, just 20 kilometres northwest. Use this as a base for a while and venture outwards!
Pander to your inner adventurer and delight in the surrounding landscape with some mountain biking. Alternatively, maybe you could go rock climbing?
Shore fishing is a wonderful way to take a breather after busy few days of sightseeing. If you feel like you want more time outside, why not plan to go bird watching as well?
Make the most of the cold weather here by surprising the kids with some skiing. Cross-country skiing is another invigorating activity for the entire family.
Step into the region's craft workshops and take in everything that they have to offer.
'There is no love sincerer than the love of food,' George Bernard Shaw once wrote, but throw travel into the mix and it's a marriage made in heaven. You're invited to unite your two loves by eating and drinking your way through Lesotho.
A traditional ingredient in the food here is cassava. Another is fish. Give them a try if they're not a part of your food repertoire already.
There's always a local recipe or two that you need to cross of the list, and while you're in Pitseng, pap-pap (boiled cornmeal dish) is one of them. Makoenya (fried cakes) is another culinary classic that isn't to be missed.
Milk tart (made from condensed milk) is a dessert that summarises this place in just one bite. Put in an order for a serving and see how long it takes until you're back for more!
Time for a drink yet? Shout yourself to a round of Maluti Beer, a beer that should be on your bucket (or pint) list.
Held annually on the 4th of October, Independence Day holds a special place in the hearts and minds of the locals. It offers a fantastic chance to discover the country's history and let your hair down while you're at it!
Endless security checkpoints, delayed flights and long lines. Airports can be very stressful. Make things a little easier and give yourself extra time to get to Durban International Airport (DUR). Situated 290 kilometres to the east, this is the closest terminal.
