Three cute KZN locations for Mother's Day
Our love for KZN grows stronger and stronger and that happens when we find hidden gems in our province.
As we approach a very special day for moms all over, we never truly know what to get for mom anymore.
Yes, a bunch of flowers, a box of chocolates or a gift voucher to her favourite salon is appreciated, but that's boring and not quite as inventive and memorable as an experience.
So, instead of sending her the not-so-original gift ideas we mentioned above, maybe treat her to a day out exploring some beautiful spots in KZN?
You can take her for a picnic at the beautiful Camp Orchards. Located in Hillcrest, not only does this venue host majestic scenery, but there is also a great option for families to picnic or eat at their newly opened deli cafe, The Harvest.
Check out their picnic menu options here.

Then if mom is adventurous by nature, then you should try glamping on the South Coast.
Kingfisher Lakeside Retreat promises the best of both bush and beach at their glamping experience situated in the village of Trafalgar on the edge of the recently rehabilitated Black Lake.
"On the border of the Mpenjati Nature Reserve and a mere five-minute walk to a pristine, unspoiled beach, Kingfisher Lakeside Retreat is an exclusive, upmarket tented camp and cottage for those who enjoy a luxurious outdoors experience." (Kingfisher website)
They sure do pack a punch of natural beauty at this location. Check out their website here. Here's a cute video too, courtesy of TikTok.

Then there is The Barn Owl located in the Midlands. If mom is a coffee lover, and let's be honest, which mom isn't, then you should definitely take her here.
Besides the breathtaking views, they promise "great coffee, delicious food, and killer desserts", so best to add it to your list of ideas.
Which one do you think your mom will enjoy the most?
