An ideal base for your next business trip: close to Westville central, with great access to the M19, M13 and N3. Cater for yourself in the spacious kitchen, with a view over the valley, or take advantage of the delightful eateries close by. With the re-vamp, we wanted to create a homey and cosy cottage that makes relaxing easy!
My husband and I have lived in Norway for 29 years, and came back to beautiful South Africa in 2023. We needed to feel the African sun on our faces again! We bought this amazing property in 2024 and wanted to continue with the hospitality industry, so we will be adding more rooms to the B&B this year. We love people, animals and sunny weather, and can't get enough of the beautiful weather Durban has to offer.
Westville is a much sought after, leafy suburb with an active community working on making it a great place to stay. We are on one of the main roads in Westville, joining the M13 and M19, but your cottage is on the side of the property furthest from the road, so you'll have the convenience of a central location with the peace and quiet of the suburbs. The are plenty of shops, takeaways, and restaurants within 1-3km, with a number of delivery options, so you'll be spoiled for choice. You'll find our personal favorites and recommendations in the cottage information file. Uber and other e-hailing services are available in the area, but having your own vehicle is the most convenient.
