    The grounds, the owners, and the peace were exceptional. Just the retreat from the city someone would need. We'd love to spend time there again.

Company info

I love sharing this peaceful property with its five cosy, roomy garden suites, here in beautiful Greyton, with our visitors. Travellers are always pleased on entering the gate to breathe in the feeling of having arrived at an oasis of a kind. I love being able to offer various balms for the soul, a place of rest and healing, with not only a beautiful place and nurturing food, but a small range of healing therapies as well, some of which it is my personal good fortune to share with you, some of whom my fabulous team here offer (massage, yoga, kinesiology, reiki, ozone therapy, rife treatment, infra red therapy, aroma-steaming, guided mountain walks, vegan and vegetarian cooking classes, mandala painting and mindfulness instruction.).

We are the guest house closest to the start of the trail on the Greyton side. For the less adventurous we offer guided walks into these chocolate box mountains.

Sparkling streams flow down from the mountains and border Greyton on its east side. There are gentle footpaths in the veldt on either side, and good picnic spots. Nearby Caledon has a 9 hole golf course and the best natural springs in the country, and is only a 20 minute drive away.
