Overview & Capacity

Cathedral Peak sits deeper in the Berg than most - the drive is the point, and the payoff is a 104-room hotel with a genuine mountain-immersion feel, six combinable venues topping out at Umlambonja's 200, and on-site helicopter trips that give an incentive programme a jaw-drop. It's mid-size rather than mass conference, which suits leadership retreats and team-building where the mountains do the reset. A recent review flagged a security concern, so B&W notes it and checks current arrangements. For an offsite that wants the drama of the high Berg, it delivers.
