Now for 2009

Here's our chance to thank everyone who has come to stay and made new friends during 2008. It has been a wonderful year and we have met so many amazing people from all over South Africa and the world.
There are so many places we would like to visit too - thank you for sharing some of the best kept secrets about the hot spots around the globe. So much to do and see, so little time!
Let's hope you have an awesome New Year and 2009 and hopefully we will catch up with you again soon.
Dave and Llewellyn

Gay Christmas in the Hay

Christmas is upon us and this is our opportunity of wishing all of our visitors to Durban and the Guesthouse a Merry Christmas, a "hot" festive season and much fun in the hay!

Guests go on Safari

Isn't this a stunning picture taken by our guests Pierre and Florian who visited the guesthouse this week and then went up to the Hluhluwe Game Reserve 2 hours away from Durban up our North Coast. They saw a huge range of animals including lions and these and many more giraffe, rhino and elephants. This was their first visit to South Africa and leave today for Cape Town, the garden route and then Johannesburg before heading back to Paris.

December boys

In Durban for the weekend are Gerhard (left) and Juanne-Pierre (right) seen with Guesthouse co-owner Llewellyn. The weather has been playing up, but the sun is shining again and the pool and sea are glorious.
