"My wife and I planned a long weekend away and undoubtedly we booked Gum Tree Glen. On arrival we were warm heartedly greeted by our hosts Peta and Jordan who made us feel relaxed and comfortable. We stayed at the Studio cottage which is clean, neat and tidy, cozy and spacious with soft linen, duvets and pillows. The extras provided in the kitchen with farm fresh milk, fruit juice, eggs, bread, butter, rusks, biscuits and sherry to warm the cold evenings was very welcoming. The views from the cottage is absolutely stunning with the surrounding farms and landscapes, while the area itself is quiet and peaceful just what is expected to rejuvenate body and soul. Close enough to shops and restaurants in Howick and the Howick Falls and Midmar Dam. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gum Tree Glen and will return soon with other family members and will definitely recommend to others. Thank you Peta and Jordan for everything and to make our stay a memorable one. Not forgetting RoomsForAfrica for making our booking simple and hassle free. "

"Last minute need a place to stay and found the beautiful Gum Tree Glen, which is close to the N3. Clean, pretty, offers more than they needed to (fresh eggs, bread, biscuits, juice etc) and just so friendly.

Thank you!

"Wonderful views, very comfortable cottage and friendly hosts, Peta and Kerry.Our first night was not comfortable because of a sunken mattress, but as soon as we mentioned this, Peta made a plan and got a brand new mattress delivered from Durban that afternoon! Impressive!"

We will definitely be back. "

We had an amazing stay at Gum Tree Glen this past weekend. The area was beautiful and tranquil and the view was picturesque. The room was quaint, clean and very well kept. The owners were friendly and accommodating and went above and beyond for us, providing so many things that other places just donÕt do, like tea, coffee, sugar, milk, cookies, rusks, cereal, bread, shampoo, body wash, etc (the list goes on). We were definitely impressed!!! "

"A charming place to get away from the city and relax. The cottage had everything we needed and more and the hosts were very welcoming and helpful. The birdlife was great and the scenery was amazing. We will definitely be back."

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gum Tree Glen. The hosts are extremely friendly and hospitable and made us feel very welcome . The bed was extremely comfortable with a cosy duck down duvet...... something we are not used to in Durban ...Besides supplying ample amounts of tea and coffee , for my 'coffee-holic' husband , we liked the added touch of a choice of rusks / cookies / cereal / yogurt and orange juice for breakfast in the morning .Definitely good value for money
Thank you Peta and Kerry for the wonderful stay ..... we will definitely recommend your cottage to family and friends "
