Lali's Guest House & Tea Garden is a highly recommended B&B with self catering option, providing accommodation in Harrismith for tourists visiting the Thabo Mofutsanyana region.
Lali's Guest House and Tea Garden, set in a quiet residential area in Harrismith, is a beautiful Victorian house. Built in the early 1940's, with original oregan pine floors and real grandma's charm, it was later on used as a Missionary house for the pastor of the local Dutch Reformed Church.
Situated at the foot of Platberg in the peaceful town of Harrismith, we offer a safe, peaceful and luxurious midway stop between Johannesburg and Durban. Your hosts, mother and daughter team Ria and Riane' van Dyk, will welcome you to their six bedroom, disabled friendly guest house.
All rooms are elegantly furnished and decorated to enhance the ambiance of the house. Each room has its own en-suite bathroom. Tea, coffee, rusks, hairdryers, electric blankets and heaters are provided in every room. TV-channels include M-Net, SABC 1 & 2, E-Tv, sport and movie channels.

Verified review
We spent two very pleasant nights in the guesthouse, where the staff faced and overcame the hazards firstly of Eskom load-shedding and secondly an electricity breakdown, which had already left them without power for 5 days at the time of our second night. Nonetheless the staff were efficient and helpful, while the accommodation was comfortable.
