Bellwood is an enchanting countryside wedding venue nestled in the rolling hills of Nottingham Road in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands. Spanning over 650 hectares of verdant hills and valleys at the foothills of the Drakensberg, Bellwood offers couples a choice between rustic charm and natural elegance.

The meticulously appointed reception venue is positioned on the banks of a tranquil dam, ensuring an unforgettable backdrop for celebrations. With accommodation for up to 72 guests in self-catering cottages just a short stroll along the dam banks, Bellwood creates a complete wedding weekend experience.
