    Patrick is awesome, very accommodating. Staff are friendly, location is nice and quiet and the pool was a welcomed refresh after a day at the beach.

Patrick
One of the constant comments we hear from guests is how peaceful the place is. The rooms and gardens are tastefully decorated with a bit of quirkiness. The names of the property and rooms originate from the Yorkshire influence of Jill my wife who hails from North Yorkshire. The room plaques were all acquired in Whitby.
There's nothing better than seeing a smile on the faces of our guests. I love sharing local knowledge to help guests have a pleasant experience while staying with us. I enjoy going to our local boxing gym Ringside. Meditation is another one of my activities to find that special space for my mind to park off. our pets are definitely spoilt and play a big part in our lives.
Ballito apparently has 200 eateries that caters for a broad spectrum of tastes. There's also sufficient retail to satisfy most tastes. Our immediate neighbourhood is well established and safe. There are a number of really nice walks available especially along the promenade that traverses a number of great views and beaches. Swimming in the ocean is safe and pleasant with the warm waters of the Indian ocean. Dolphin viewing and seasonal visits by many Southern Right whales can be arranged. If cycling is your thing we have Holla trails which are extensive mountain bike tracks of varying intensity. These are just a few of the attractions/activities in our beautiful area. Come and see it for yourself!!!!!
