About the owners
All of us are looking forward to meeting you soon in person!
Laura and Leo
We are Laura & Leopold, a couple who fell deeply in love with South Africa during a vaccation. What began as an adventure, turned out to be a life-changing experience. We make the decission to reshape our lives and took over a guesthouse in Somerset West.
Laura previously worked as an intensive care nurse in Austria,while Leo was a sales manager.
With our professional background in working with people, combined with our passion for hospitality and caring for others, we warmly welcome our guests!
Our aim is to create a place of peace and beauty - a home away from home where you can relax, enjoy, and discover the incredible diversity of South Africa.
Our Green-Fingered Guru
If our garden looks incredible, it’s all thanks to Bartson! He takes huge pleasure in managing our massive 3,500-square-meter property.
The grounds are filled with lush, established trees and indigenous/native South African plants that give the space a completely unique charm. Bartson is always hard at work keeping the area pristine for our guests, and because he’s so skilled, you get to just put your feet up and enjoy his beautiful handy work.
Our Cleaning Squad!
We are so proud to introduce the wonderful helping hands behind the scenes: Anna, Bomkazi, Naome and Schiella!
Our incredible housekeeping team works tirelessly to keep the entire property sparkling clean and tidy on the inside. Best of all, they do it all with a warm smile. Where would we be without you, ladies?! We are deeply grateful for your loyalty and for keeping our home shining bright. We feel so lucky to have had you as a core part of our team for so many years.
