The village is 37 km north-west of Durban, on the old main road to Pietermaritzburg before the N3 highway was built. There have been different opinions about the origin of the name of Botha's Hill. The Dictionary of Southern African Place Names claims it was named after a settler, Philip Rudolph Botha, grandfather of General Louis Botha (1862-1919), first Prime Minister of the Union of South Africa. Research undertaken by Robin W. Lamplough and published in the journal of the Natal Society, suggests that Botha's Hill was named after Cornelis Botha, a former harbour master of Port Natal. (en)
