What We Offer

An ideal space for private weekends, birthdays, intimate gatherings, yoga retreats, workshops and workaways, as well as the perfect overnight stop on your way out of the Western Cape just off the N7, only one hour away, yet no less peaceful and serene than a distant mountain escape.

We host private celebrations, curated retreats and small-scale events throughout the year, including full moon yoga weekend retreats, occasional local Saturday markets and open garden days. Our gardens will also host workshops on wilding.

Keep an eye on our bulletin board and Instagram for upcoming events and regular updates.
