When winter comes whirling in, we usually take cover under heavy jackets, woolly jerseys and duvets. The biggest challenge each morning is put one toe out of bed onto the freezing tile floor! But winter can be fun, and warm, and snug. You just need the right people and the right setting! Before winter properly sets in, make way for our Winter Special! This includes a bed & breakfast and a complimentary glass of red wine or gluhwein. Relax after dinner with a hot cup of coffee in the one hand and dessert in the other. To book your winter retreat, call us on 051 871 4200 or info@blackmountainhotel.co.za.
