<strong>Start Date: </strong>2011-08-14<br />
<strong>End Date: </strong>2011-08-21</p>
<p>Dear Bridge Enthusiast,</p>
<p>We are pleased to announce the 5th Annual Nest Bridge Week - set in the scenic majesty of the Central Drakensberg of Kwa-zulu Natal!</p>
<p>Once again Heidi Atkinson will be our Bridge Lecturer and Convenor. Her passion for bridge and people, her teaching abilities and organisational skills ensure that you will be well looked after.</p>
<p>From humble beginnings, our Bridge week has become more and more appealing to South African Bridge players of all skill levels. We have scheduled the Bridge Clinic for Intermediates aimed at improving their Bridge skills. We end off with a Weekend Tournament of fun, friendly and competitive play. The tournament is hosted in our impressive conference venue and run professionally with instant scoring, personal score sheets and hand records .</p>
<p>The Nest offers an ideal venue for learning and fun in the crisp and fresh Drakensberg winter tableau. Our tasty South African country cooking and warm hospitality provide relaxing respite from the often snow bound mountains on display. Our special Bridge rates ensure great value for money and offer a memorable experience for all.</p>
<p>The schedule of events with more detailed information will be loaded on this page shortly.</p>
<p>We look forward to hosting you for yet another successful and enjoyable Bridge season at The Nest!</p>
<p>For more information please call our reservations desk on 036 468 1068.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Demand for Drakensberg accommodation has always been high, especially in the Central Drakensberg valley in which we are situated. The immense scenic majesty of our area, with its cultural and natural wonders has even been awarded World Heritage Site status. This also means that there are big restrictions on future Drakensberg developments and that it is quite unlikely that more accommodation options will be developed in the future.</p>
<p>The Drakensberg has always attracted all types of people, all looking for different accommodation to suit their needs. Our area now boasts accommodation ranging from basic camping in the Drakensberg foothills all the way up to beautiful suites offering a great degree of space and luxury. The Nest offers unique Drakensberg accommodation in Garden Rondavels, Mountain View Rooms and executive Suites. Rates are fully inclusive of all meals and offer a variety of traditional tastes of South Africa. Our Garden Rondavels offer a comfortable accommodation option set in our tranquil gardens.</p>

</a>

<p>The Mountain View Rooms are very popular with their patios overlooking the major peaks of the Central Drakensberg. They are an ideal place to relax and observe the silent and towering mountains – especially in the evening for those impressive Drakensberg sunsets.</p>
<p>We now also have two Executive Suites offering more refined accommodation. These rooms are increasingly popular and are fully booked over most weekends.</p>

</a>

<p>Although the Drakensberg is a year round destination, certain periods are in very high demand for accommodation. Easter, the Festive Season and long weekends sees our valley at full capacity as guests treat themselves and their families to a well-earned Drakensberg getaway. For these times of the year, it is important to reserve your accommodation well in advance.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Following the fierce cold and icy grip that winter has spread across South Africa, we have received a generous blanket of snow on the mountains of our valley. The major peaks of the Central Drakensberg look magnificent under their elegant coat of gleaming white snow. This morning there was a heavy frost and all the plants, railings, fences and fixtures were covered with a layer of ice crystals, all catching the morning sun and glinting all colours of the rainbow briefly before melting. Although the Drakensberg is locked in the ice and cold of winter, our accommodation is cozy and warm with delightful thatched rooms offering a welcome comfort against the cold. At nights, the bar, with its log burning fire, is the ideal place to escape the chill and relax with a sherry before dinner. our six course dinner, served Monday to Saturday, is also a very good way to spend an evening escaping the cold!</p>
<p>The snow has arrived early this year and by most forecasts, we can expect a chilly season with a whole lot more snow on our mountains and in our valley.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Nest Drakensberg Mountain Resort Hotel featured a stand at the annual Indaba Travel and Trade Show at the ICC in Durban.</p>
<p>This is always a brilliant platform to market our product to various agents and tour groups both locally and internationally.</p>
<p>It appears that there is healthy interest in South African tourism and particularly to the majestic Drakensberg where The Nest is based.</p>
<p>Although we are not situated on a main World Cup Soccer route, we have attracted the attention of a few tour operators who have booked rooms at our resort for a few days in June 2010.</p>
<p>One of the highlights of the 2010 Travel Indaba was that The Nest won the Hall of Fame accolade from the well-known AA Travel Guides American Express Travel Guides. This is a great honour for us and we wish to acknowledge and thank all staff and our motivated and service orientated team for all of their hard work and effort.</p>
<p>We also would like to thank the tour operators and agents who have loyally supported The Nest as well as all new contacts who we introduced our delightful Drakensberg resort to. We look forward to a long lasting and mutual beneficial relationship which we are sure will grow in future years.</p>
<p>This exposure and our award could not be achieved without the continued and much appreciated support of our many guests whom we have hosted over the last 7 decades.</p>
<p>We look forward to your continued support and invite you to experience the scenic majesty of the Drakensberg at The Nest&#8217;s unique and relaxing resort ambience.</p>
