Our stay in Arbor was brilliant and very peaceful. I can recommend it to anyone who wants a peaceful outing. The room are very good and tidy. The only area of concern is breakfast. If they just add some variety on the breakfast things will be more than 100 percent. We had a fantastic time.

We booked in for a nite on 30 May 15. We were a bit apprehensive at first but when we check in we were amazed. Beautiful room - spotlessly clean room and bathroom. My only suggestion is a shower curtain as the water is all over place when u are done. Other than that we loved our short stay.I would recommend this place to anyone and will make use of the guest house again when in the area.

I stayed here on a quick tour of Newcastle.
Absolutely heart warming welcome and excellent service.

I was lucky to get a room here because most of my friends tried for booking earlier but it was always fully occupied.

I took a wooden cottage and ohhh glory!!! I was stunned by the good bed, well kept and arranged linen, beautifully smooth pillows and lush blanket. Beautifully simple interiors, very good heater, a mini fridge and tea/coffee kettle. All made me feel at home.
A nice sleep, early morning shower and beautifully tasting breakfast was all I needed more before my next long drive ahead. And I have to say this beautiful home away from home fulfilled all to perfect expectations.

A nice Lapa with a cozy pool in the background will be a good thing for summers and some spice added for relaxed evenings I am sure.

Overall, a very good stay in Newcastle.

Tip: Making early reservations would be helpful as this place tends to run out of rooms.

Room tip: Get the wooden cottages at the back. Silent and away from reception area. Good privacy.

Wonderful little gem in the Newcastle area. Friendly and helpful staff. Superb home-made meals. Spotlessly clean rooms and living areas. Conveniently situated. My first choice for accommodation in this little town.

Room tip: Ask for the 'safari suite' if you would prefer a more luxurious stay!

I visted the town of Newcastle in Kwa Zulu Natal Midlands area after 30 years. A bit apprehensive about the area i booked a quaint little guesthouse in the area. Needless to say it more than exceeded my expectation. Rooms were neat and tidy. Gardens were perfect. Meals good and the staff were just billiant. Well recommended to travellers out to the Midlands of Kwa Zulu Natal South Africa.

Room tip: Rooms on the pool side are much quiter
