Welcome to The Nelsons on 99 Smith, a stylish, contemporary guesthouse in the heart of Dundee, nestled in the heart of the scenic Biggarsberg valley and surrounded by the three prominent peaks mentioned: Indumeni (or ‘the mountain where thunder rolls’), Mpati (‘the place of good waters’), and Talana (‘the shelf where precious items are kept’). The precious items in question here include rich coal deposits.
Dundee, founded in 1882, languishes in the Northern Kwazulu-Natal – situated centrally within the Battlefields Tourism region, one of its major draw cards is the ruggedly scenic Biggarsberg conservancy.
The former small mining village with long connections to military conflict, now a developed tourist town has kept a distinct sense of rich and varied history.
