    The room was large and had a refrigerator in it. The balcony was large and fairly private. The location is close to many attractions in the area. The property has character, it is older but well maintained and they have attempted to retain much...

Bev & Marco Coetzee
We bought the property in 2004. It had been a shop downstairs, with the owners living upstairs. Marco did extensive renovations and additions and we opened in December 2005. In August 2015, we opened Tsitrus Cafe on the property, again designed and built by Marco. It offers a small menu of freshly made items, wood fired pizzas being a favourite. It is open every day for lunches, dinners and in-betweens!
The owners, Marco and Bev, live on the property, with their kids.They love exploring the area and are keen walkers and cyclists. We have a team of 4 ladies in the Guest House. Theresa has been with us from the start, Mieta since 2006, and Anna and Evette a good number of years!
Storms River Village is an idyllic little place, with friendly locals, and lots of outdoor things to do.. One is able to walk to a lot of the activities, and also to the restaurants in the evenings.. We are in easy driving distance of Storms River Mouth, Bloukrans Bungy, Natures Valley and the Crags.
