4.5 / 5.0
The property is very close to Sandton Centre. The owner took a lot of trouble with the decor of each themed unit and I appreciated all the little quirky details.
The room I stayed in is very large and comfortable with a small self-catering kitchenette where you are able to warm up food and eat in if needed.
The garden is well looked after and it adds to the overall tranquility of the property.
The owner and host is very friendly and welcoming.
Will definitely recommend the guesthouse to family, friends, and colleagues .

A must for travellers who need a home away from home and will be perfect for remote working! - so comfortable and we loved that the owner shared such a deeply personal story about the home in such a beautiful book.

Loved out stay, the nature (garden) is peaceful. More than a guesthouse, Elna is incredible. The breakfast was absolutely scrumptious
5.0 / 5.0
The room was so well lit, and just overall gorgeous. The place has a beautiful story behind it, and it feels so precious being a part of it. The breakfast was sensational, every time, with perfect portions. Elna and Nadia were attentive, flexible, friendly, and caring. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the bath and shower were amazing! You can see how much work and love went into the garden, decor and surrounds. I arrived in a bad emotional space, and being here really lifted my spirits. It really was special.
5.0 / 5.0
The Guesthouse looks like something out of a fairy tale, absolutely stunning setting and scenery. Amazing spacious accommodation with tasteful decor that blew me away. Nothing was left out or needed during my stay. The owner Elna has great taste in decorating and can cook like Gordon Ramsey himself. I have nothing to complain about and will definitely come back again!
No complaints can be made.
