The Benefits of Off Season Travel to Dullstroom

Everyone knows that the festive period in South Africa is chaotic. The roads are jam-packed, the beaches are buzzing, and popular holiday destinations are full to the brim. The charming town of Dullstroom in Mpumalanga is no different – attracting hordes of people over Christmas and New Year’s. One of the best way to avoid the business of the festive season is to travel during the off season, when holidaymakers are back at work.

Below, we list three reasons exactly why the months of January and February are a great time to visit Dullstroom:

Less Crowded

As is the case with many holiday hot-spots during off season, visiting Dullstroom during January and February is a brilliant way to avoid the throngs of people who descend upon the town over December. During this quieter period, you’ll likely have the cosy coffee shops and quaint restaurants all to yourself, and you’ll be free to wander the picturesque streets in peace.

Accommodation Specials

In a bid to raise occupancy levels during off season, many Dullstroom hotels and lodges run exclusive specials over January and February. Giving you the perfect excuse to kick off your travels in 2018, Walkersons Hotel & Spa are offering 15%, 20%, and 25% discounts on 2-night, 3-night and 4-night stays accordingly. They are also running an exciting special on conferencing, allowing you to benefit from a 25% discount on the 2-night Deluxe Conference Package.

Exciting Activities

January is one of the hottest months of the year in Dullstroom, so if you’re travelling to this countryside paradise soon, then you’ll benefit from consistently clear skies, hot days and warm nights. Take full advantage of the pleasant weather by booking a wide range of outdoor activities available in and around town.
