The Old Stone House was once the home of renowned South African Author Alan Paton, best known for his novel Cry, the Beloved Country. Built in the late 1940's, the house is rich in history and character. Surrounded by lush gardens and peaceful views, it reflects the quiet inspiration behind Paton's powerful writing and remains a treasured literary landmark in the area.

Hello and Welcome! I am a friendly and hands-on host who loves meeting new people and sharing a beautiful, peaceful space with my guests. I believe that great hospitality is all about warmth, comfort and making people feel valued. I am always available to assist recommend local spots, or simply ensure you have everything you need for a wonderful stay.

Nestled in the leafy hills just outside Durban, Kloof is a peaceful escape where nature and charm meet. Known for its cool climate, lush greenery and sweeping valley views, Kloof offers a refreshing contrast to the busy coastline below. At the heart of the area lies Krantzkloof Nature Reserve, where waterfalls tumble into deep gorges and scenic trails winds through indigenous forest. Kloof is loved for its quiet, village-like atmosphere, boutique cafes, and warm community spirit. While it feels tucked away in nature, its only a short drive to beaches and vibrant city life of Durban - offering visitorsthe best of both worlds, serenety and convenience.
