Our modern freestanding cottage has its own fully enclosed private garden situated within a gated country estate. Wild buck roam freely and birdlife is prolific, making for a relaxing stay. Local shopping areas and restaurants are conveniently only a few minutes away.
I thoroughly enjoy the hospitality industry and meeting people from all walks of life.
There are so many outdoor activity opportunities in the Natal Midlands - from walking, biking, hiking, sailing, boating and zip lining for adventurous souls.
