    What a lovely home from home. The very comfortable apartment was furnished with the owner’s grandparents furniture - beautiful old carved wooden furniture. We chose to sleep in the four poster bed rather than the big brass bed. Everything you...

    We loved our stay here. Erna is a wonderful host, so sweet, kind and welcoming. We felt right at home, except we felt like we were in the trees and it was amazing. Her arrival instructions were clear, and she prepared her home for us by turning on...

    Quiet, safe, comfortable accommodation in forest surroundings abounding with birds. Witnessed the Knysna Loerie there for the first time in my life.

    A house full of memories and stories and so much character. It was lovely. Baboons and beautiful birds. So special.

    Fabulously appointed forest hideaway with monkeys roaming the trees. A home filled with antique family heirlooms and furniture. A very special experience. Would have loved to stay longer.

    The rooms of the rustic apartment looked exactly like in the pictures and had everything we needed. From the new big balcony we had a nice view of the rain forest garden and even saw some vervet monkeys in the trees. Loadshedding didn't effect us...

    It was the most interesting place any of us has ever stayed at. The house is beautiful, the furniture is exceptional, and Erna is just the best hostess.
  • Yudhir

    This was our second stay at Erna's place, and we will definitely be back for another. There were also some improvements from our first trip that made it even better. Our host was delightful as always 😀.

The accommodation compliments the pristine beauty of the natural environment, with an authentic, cozy Victorian style, two double bedroom self catering, wooden cottage. The holiday accommodation is accessible via a wooden staircase to the upper floor, where there is an outdoor eating area. The living room and kitchen together offers a great open plan space, and flows into the balcony area. Both bedrooms have comfortable double beds and wardrobes. One bathroom with a bath. Kitchen is equipped with a double sink, kettle, oven, microwave, fridge and dinning table. The owner Erna lives on site 500m away in her own cottage, but I leave quests to explore and enjoy the surrounding activities on their own
A humble person who put others needs first. I love to spoil people and would go the extra mile to let my quests feel safe and satisfied within their environment. I am really not a conflict seeker...if everything is not up to standard...kindly discuss it with me...there are so many beautiful ways to overcome obstacles. My motto in life is: " It is only through Giving that we are Receiving...! " Please NOTE : Kindly get in contact with me as soon as you have a SA cell number, that would help with the clear directions to the accommodation. ( GPS coordinates does not bring you to property) Please Note: ... the electricity supply and water shortages may occur...although very seldom...we really try to keep the Valley as unspoiled as possible...therefore no chronicle numeric street numbers ...just plot numbers. NB : we are part of De Vasselot indigenous Tsitsikamma National Park...therefore not liable for any injuries or damages on the premises. i trust it would be a memorable experience to stay in Nature's Valley....lots of love and light! Erna
Nature's Valley is a pristine beautiful little village with less then 100 permanent residents during the year... where one can still dance with the rhythm of nature! Nature's Valley is often referred to as the Jewel of the Garden Route or a piece of Heaven which fell on earth. Imagine walking within the indigenous forest of the Ttsitsikamma Nature Reserve or on the two kilometer unspoiled beach with a zero crime rate. The amount of oxygen from the sea and the indigenous forest assure one to sleep like a baby angel again...we call the tranquil, no rush atmosphere with the long hours of sleep usually the Outeniqua rust! Nature's Valley offers a real hide away for the tired soul. Various services are offered who mainly focus on health and healing, nutrition and deep relaxation.
