This Elegant Homestead situated on 2 acres of park like gardens approximately 35 km from Durban, has become sought after by tourists and Corporates who want good hospitality, cleanliness, comfort and peace & quiet.
The main house was designed by a Dutch architect and built in 1956 as a family home which was passed down from father to son and remained in the family until 1997 when purchased by Jane & Paul with a view to running a B&B.
Both being professional entertainers, they named the property "Lindisfarne" after the British Folk/Rock Group who were popular during the early 70's.
