Beautiful old house with exceptional view and friendly hosts. Open the old house's large wooden frame windows without burglar bars and look out on the river, a forest and very far a bit of the sea. Listen for the osprey and other bird species, especially different loons. It felt like a vacation to me, even though it was a business trip.

Pragtige ou huis met besonderse uitsig en vriendelike gashere. Maak die ou huis se groot houtraamvensters sonder diefwering oop en kyk uit op die rivier, 'n woud en baie ver 'n bietjie van die see. Luister na die visarende en ander voëlsoorte, veral verskillende loeries. Dit het vir my soos 'n vakansie gevoel, al was dit 'n besigheidsreis.

Thank you very much, Hendrik. It's so nice to receive nice references. There is always that one person who finds fault and does us so much harm. Friendly greeting, Ria.

Baie dankie, Hendrik. Dis so lekker om mooi verwysings te ontvang. Daar is altyd die een persoon wat fout vind en ons so baie skade aandoen. Vriendelike groete, Ria.

Brilliant hostess, excellent stay! The reception at Royston Hall was warm and the accommodation exactly what we were looking for. Breakfast on the veranda was only beaten by the beautiful view! Service was excellent.

Briljante gasvrou, uitstekende verblyf! Die ontvangs by Royston Hall was warm en die verblyf presies waarvoor ons gesoek het. Ontbyt op die stoep was net geklop deur die pragtige uitsig! Diens was uitstekend.

Hi Christo, Better late than never. Thank you very much for your nice comments about Royston Hall and kind words about your reception. We're just like that, the house is classy - not us. We're just having fun. come again regards Ria

Hallo Christo, Laat is beter as nooit. Baie dankie vir jou mooi kommentaar oor Royston Hall en gawe woorde oor jou ontvangs. Ons is maar so, die huis is deftig - nie ons nie. Ons is net lekker. Kom weer. Groete Ria

Beautiful old world charm. The owners went out of their way to help us when our car was too low and we couldn't get to the guest house. The room and bathroom are particularly spacious. The view is breathtaking and the breakfast (included) exquisite. There are many stories about the house and previous owners which I found particularly interesting. Unfortunately we spent little time there, we met our children for dinner.

Pragtige ouwêreldse sjarme. Die eienaars het uit hulle pad gegaan om ons te help toe ons motor te laag was en ons nie by die gastehuis kon kom nie. Die kamer en badkamer is besonder ruim. Die uitsig is asemrowend en die ontbyt (ingesluit) keurig. Daar is baie stories oor die huis en vorige eienaars wat ek besonder interessant gevind het. Ongelukkig het ons min tyd daar deurgebring, ons het ons kinders ontmoet vir aandete.

Royston Hall Guest House spells tranquility in the truest sense of the word where good old world values still prevail and one stop in the peaceful nature can satisfy all tastes. Royston Hall Guest House is a large stately mansion in luxurious Victorian style with a rich history spanning over 130 years. It provides ideal safe accommodation in the peaceful, plant-rich environment of the Hibiscus Coast which makes you completely forget about the city bustle and crime of Gauteng. In the morning an excellent breakfast is served on the Victorian veranda in good weather, otherwise in the dining room or library with their beautiful antique furniture. The 118-year-old Oregon floors, stair railings, doors and window frames throughout the house create a special, honey-warm atmosphere and compliment the high ceilings that also trap the heat from outside. Beautiful antique furniture is effectively placed throughout the library, dining room and two sitting rooms. A four-poster bed and other copper beds in the five bedrooms as well as comfortable spacious bathrooms "en suite". Sinks installed in antique cabinet surfaces. You don't want to leave the comfortable Victorian bath or shower because you feel one with nature outside through the sliding windows of the last century. Often in the late afternoon, a hornbill comes knocking on the window to disturb the peace. The huge, soft bed's headboard and the picturesque view of the estuary and forest as soon as the heavy brocade blinds are drawn. With Wi-Fi access, DStv and other facilities in the spacious, comfortable, tidy room is a pleasure. The balcony outside overlooks the blue swimming pool below from where you can peer over the cliff to the deep indigenous forests far down in the valley where the osprey calls over the Umzimkulu estuary and on the horizon lies the Indian Ocean. The Tweni swimming beach, part of the beautiful Hibiscus Coast, is about 2 km from Royston Hall with picture-perfect subtropical plants and trees on either side of the winding road. Blue waves and a vast clean sandy sky and safe rocks suddenly lie before you. Good restaurants, supermarket and liquor store in the immediate vicinity. Royston Hall is one hour's drive south along the N2 from Durban and close to many other beaches such as Shelly Beach, Margate, Uvongo, quality shopping centers and 11 world class golf courses. This outstanding guest house is the place to stay from where you can butter your bread on both sides and satisfy all tastes and moods!

Royston Hall Guest House spel rustigheid in ware sin van die woord waar ouwêreldse goeie waardes nog hoogty vier en een stop in die rustige natuur alle smake kan bevredig. Royston Hall Guest House is 'n groot statige herehuis in luukse Victoriaanse styl met 'n ryke geskiedenis strekkende oor 130 jaar. Dit verskaf ideale veilige verblyf in die rustige, plantryke omgewing van die Hibiscuskus wat jou ten volle laat vergeet van die stadsgewoel en misdaad van Gauteng. Soggens word 'n voortreflike ontbyt bedien op die Victoriaanse stoep in goeie weer, andersins in die eetkamer of biblioteek met hul pragtige antieke meubels. Die 118 jaar oue Oregon-vloere, traprelings, deure en kosyne dwarsdeur die huis skep 'n besonderse, heuningwarm atmosfeer en komplimenteer die hoë plafonne wat ook die hitte van buite hokslaan. Pragtige antieke meubels is oral effektief geplaas in die biblioteek, eetkamer en twee sitkamers. 'n Hemelbed en ander koperbeddens in die vyf slaapkamers asook gerieflike ruim badkamers "en suite". Wasbakke geïnstalleer in antieke kas- oppervlaktes. Jy wil nie die gerieflike Victoriaanse bad of stort verlaat nie want jy voel een met die natuur buite deur die opskuif vensters van die vorige eeu. Dikwels laatmiddag kom klop die 'n neushoringvoël aan die venster om die rustigheid te versteur. Die reuse, sagte bed se kopstuk en die skilderagtige uitsig oor die riviermond en woud sodra die swaar brokaat blindings opgetrek word. Met WiFi toegang, DStv en ander geriewe in die ruim gerieflike, netjiese kamer is 'n lafenis. Die balkon buite kyk uit op die blou swembad onder vanwaar jy oor die krans kan tuur na die diep inheemse woude ver onder in die vallei waar die visarend roep oor die Umzimkulu riviermond en op die horison lê die Indiese Oseaan. Die Tweni swemstrand, deel van die pragtige Hibiscuskus, is omtrent 2 km van Royston Hall met prentjiemooi subtropiese plante en bome aan weerskante van die kronkelpad. Blou golwe en 'n uitgestrekte skoon sandhemel en veilige rotse lê skielik voor jou. Goeie restaurante, supermark en drankwinkel in die direkte omgewing. Royston Hall is een uur se ry suid langs die N2 van Durban af en naby vele ander strande soos Shelly Beach, Margate, Uvongo, inkoopsentrums van gehalte en 11 wêreldklas-gholfbane. Hierdie uitstaande gastehuis is die blyplek vanwaar jy jou brood aan albei kante kan botter en alle smake en buie kan bevredig!
