About Kelso

Kelso is a tiny South Coast dorpie between Pennington and Park Rynie, just off the N2, with the old R102 coastal road giving a slower, prettier drive past the cane fields. It's handy for day trips to Scottburgh, Umzinto, and Ifafa Beach, all within 20 km, though some visitors travel from as far as Salem or Barkly East. There's roughly one fast EV charger nearby. Blink and you'll miss it, so keep an eye on the signs.
