As we approach the colder months in South Africa, many of us dream of escaping to a warmer environment to enjoy sun-filled days and forget about the winter chills. On the other hand, some of us embrace the cold and can’t wait to snuggle up in front of the fire with marshmallows and a cup of hot chocolate or that lovely glass of wine.

 

With the real colder months creeping closer kulula.com has a couple of suggestions for top winter breaks across South Africa. Whether you choose to soak up the balmy winter sun or the crackling of a fire, there are amazing winter breaks  that will guarantee a  great holiday experience for those single, attached or with their families.

 

Remember as winter is low season and hotels tend to be quieter it takes a wise (wo)man to plan some time off during the winter months and there will be fantastic specials up for grabs. If you travel outside of the winter school holidays, there will also be more availability allowing for a variety of options wherever you decide to go for your mid-year break.

 

kulula.com recommends the following top winter breaks:

 

Kwazulu-Natal is well known for its mild and sunny winters. Escape to the Garden Court South Beach.

 

Although it can get rather chilly on the Garden Route it is still one of the most beautiful parts of the country.

 

Ceres, just outside Cape Town, is also a popular destination for snow lovers, so why not take a daytrip and stay for the weekend at Signal Hill Lodge. Some more snow gems are on the East Coast of South Africa, such as Hogsback or Tiffendel, for the chance to experience winter snow. Alternatively, you can also visit Sutherland in the Karoo and snuggle up in front of the fire at your chosen accommodation and mingle with the locals during the day.
