“It's a beautiful, magical place to stay. Definitely good choice.”
Location is very central to shops and restaurants. I enjoyed the peaceful ambiance between the tree tops. Facilities were good. It felt like home. The host was very courteous. Bonus... I had my own parking spot.

“Loved our stay for the weekend.”
An aircon during summer nights would be a great assist for the facility, but overall it was a very cozy and comfortable stay. Amazing pets, people and lovely swimming pool.

“Perfect for the purpose of my stay, situated in a beautiful nature setting.”
I stayed at the property to be able to do a 10,000+ photoshoot on race day during the 2025 Comrades Marathon. This property was PERFECTLY suited for that purpose. I had to be able to fairly freely travel between Durban and Pietermaritzburg. Hosts Debbie and her hubby went out of their way to ensure I had a comfortable stay and assisted me when I needed help during my stay. Debbie communicated well, before and during my stay. I would give my stay at this venue a 5/5 for the purpose of my visit.

It is a quiet hide-away, surrounded by nature, in town. The hosts are very friendly. I will definitely go back there.

Everything! The host is very welcoming. We arrived late and their accommodated us. The husband helped with our luggage. The dogs were even friendly. The place is big and clean. Lots of privacy, even though the rooms are attached to the back of the house. Wifi works, and there is also a small little kitchen with deck separately should you wish to cook or warm up your food. Value for money! Would definitely go back there!
