DescriptionLittle Paradise is a guest farm in the heart of the Midlands Meander of KwaZulu-Natal, 3 kilometres from Balgowan Station and Michaelhouse School. Our farm is situated on a hillside with a breathtaking view over the Balgowan valley to Nottingham Road and Giant’s Castle. The land supports abundant bird life including the long crested eagle, jackal buzzard and the rare Cape parrot. Animal residents include duiker, reedbuck, bushbuck, scrub hare and vervet monkeys. We have a small, precious patch of indigenous forest and fields of wild flowers in spring. We grow rosemary, giant garlic, pecan nuts and proteas and the farm participates in research programmes for the cultivation of rosemary and the production of essential oils. Accommodation The Guest Farm offers four double suites nestled on the edge of a pine forest. Each suite comprises a spacious bedroom, a full en suite bathroom and a French window opening onto a private covered deck. The king-size bed is dressed in luxurious, crisp white linen. The décor reflects simple understated elegance where the emphasis is on comfort in a relaxed atmosphere. A hospitality tray and fridge with minibar complete the picture. Our guests can enjoy sumptuous farmhouse breakfasts served in ‘The Barn’. Come, relax and enjoy our special kind of magic at Little Paradise
