🌿 What to Expect at Hills and Dales Accommodation - Where Nature Is the Luxury
Welcome to our charming, down-to-earth 3-star retreat, where rates reflect our honest grading and nature takes center stage. Our soul lies in the details: tranquil views, towering trees, and birdsong that drowns out the Wi-Fi. Lovingly referred to by guests as the ‘Garden of Eden’, our lush grounds invite you to relax, unwind, and reconnect with the natural world. If you're seeking peace, greenery, and authenticity, you'll feel right at home.
We’re not a five-star resort with marble floors or champagne fountains—and we don’t pretend to be. Instead, we offer a warm, welcoming haven with soul. If you're chasing glitz and grandeur, we might not be the right fit—and that's perfectly okay and you must follow your heart. But if you crave the kind of serenity you can’t buy, where nature whispers poetry and birds sing louder than your notifications, we’re ready to welcome you with open arms.
Come for peace, not polish—and leave feeling refreshed, not rushed.
Nestled across 23 hectares of rolling countryside within the tourism supply zone of the World Heritage Site, The Cradle of Humankind, Hills and Dales Accommodation offers a relaxed, homestyle escape—just 40 minutes from the bustle of Johannesburg and Sandton.
Whether you're planning a peaceful retreat for couples or families, a school reunion, farmers’ gathering, golf tour, milestone birthday celebration, team-building event, or a laid-back business meeting, we tailor each experience to suit your needs. For groups of 8 or more, we even offer Bush Paintball in our natural terrain for a bit of adventurous fun.
Surrounded by lush gardens, scenic views, and abundant birdlife, our property borders Lanseria Airport, making it a convenient yet serene getaway for leisure and business alike.

Great!
Great location and ease of access to surrounding activities. No fuss check-in and check-out. Relaxing quick getaway close enough to Johannesburg but secluded enough to feel far away.

Thank you everyone at Hills and Dales
We had our year end function at Hills and Dales Accommodation, and it was great. The accommodation is clean and Jabulani is a great venue. All the staff are very friendly and helpful. Douglas and Solomon helped me a lot. Tim and Diane are very friendly and helpful as well. I will recommend Hills and Dales Accommodation to anyone for a function. Thank you everyone at Hills and Dales.
