Elbow's Rest Self Catering Establishment, situated in the heart of the Hilton Village, is only 10 minutes away from Pietermaritzburg, the Capital City of the Kwa Zulu Natal Province.The Midlands Region is centred on the City.
We have a long established reputation as a family centred  environment, where the comfort, care and privacy of our guests, in our 3 self catering Units,  is our first priority. Our Units are 4 Star Graded by the TGCSA.

The rural climate of Hilton is invigorating, with its warm summers and cool winters a noted feature, while the year round lush green vegetation adds to its reputation of desirability.
In the village itself, there are two shopping centres, which are most adequate for the basic daily needs, while  the Maritzburg Liberty Mall will satisfy the most discerning shoppers. Our small restaurants in Hilton  are to be commended .

The Independent School base in the Midlands is in Hilton, -  with Hilton College, St Anne's, Grace College and Cowan House very close to us, while Michaelhouse is 20 minutes away on the R103 ROUTE.
