the breakfast was scrumptious, the hostess was so kind and well-organised, the walks to the river and the garden surrounds were so peaceful. The room was so comfortable and the staff were really accommodating. I even took my Small Dog, and the establishment is very pet friendly! I will be going back!

This B&B was a delight. The hosts St John and Cayleigh were personable, warm, attentive to our needs, and the standard of breakfasts was like a 1st class restaurant. Eating with a view of the garden, listening to the birds, in the pool room was a treat. The room had every comfort, and towels, coffee pods and milk in the fridge was topped up daily By friendly Makhosi and Doriga. Washing and ironing service was done with no fuss and extremely reasonably priced. We asked for one evening meal and received something simple but exceptional. You can see Cayleigh runs a successful restaurant! The whole venue was secure, with gated access, and we could come and go as we pleased. The gardens were a treat, so much so that’s we brought our good friend who loves gardens around for a walk around and a look. St John gave us a tour of the historic house, with all the stories of its Voortrekker origins. Although we were in Howick to sort some family business, and were thus very busy, we left feeling like we had had a holiday. I will definitely stay there again - winter (get the room with the open fire) or summer (the pool provides a refreshing swim in the evening). I have stayed in B&B’s and hotels all over the world, and this experience stands out as one of my favourites. Highly recommended.

Perfectly located, natural surroundings, little shops, eateries, an awesome Farmstall (couple of kms from Piggly Wiggly). Wine estates, sculptures, beautiful ceramic art at Ardmore. More than enough to see & do in this beautiful area!

Ideal location close to top tourist places.

Ideal location close to top tourist places. Beautiful views and lovely walking/cycling area. Great visit to the wine estate and good meals at most places. Most facilities close at 4pm so keep in mind when planning a light dinner.

It is not far from the free way yet once you reach the place it feels like you are far because of it's isolated location. It is therapeutic to look out the window and see bucks roaming not far from the cottages. I came back calm and relaxed as if I had visited the rural area because of the beautiful vegetation in the property. I will definitely go back whenever I need to be away from the urban noise and air pollution.

Lion's River is a beautiful area, in actual fact I would rate it as a hidden gem. There are many places to stop off at and I certainly would recommend it and visit the area again. The Nelson Mandela Capture site is closeby, many coffee shops and places of interest. Granny Mouse Country House, Piggly Wiggly, St Ive's; just to name a few.

I loved the setting, it is remote and quiet, very much a nature lovers place. The cottage was clean, comfortable and private. I was there for a wedding at The Barn Owl so that's mostly where I ate but Howick Spar is a short 13km away with a pharmacy too for just in case.
