🌿 What to Expect at Hills and Dales Accommodation – Where Nature Is the Luxury
Hills and Dales Accommodation is a relaxed, country‑style retreat set on 23 hectares of peaceful countryside in Lanseria, within the tourism supply zone of the World Heritage Site, the Cradle of Humankind. Our 3‑star grading reflects our honest, down‑to‑earth approach: simple comfort, warm hospitality, and a setting where nature is the true luxury.
Guests often describe our property as a “Garden of Eden” — a place where towering trees, lush gardens, tranquil views, and abundant birdlife create an atmosphere of deep calm. If you’re seeking greenery, authenticity, and the kind of serenity you cannot buy, you’ll feel instantly at home.
We’re not a five‑star resort with marble floors or champagne fountains, and we don not pretend to be. Instead, we offer a welcoming, homestyle escape with soul. If you prefer glitz and grandeur, we may not be the right fit — and that’s perfectly okay. But if you crave peace, space, and nature that whispers rather than shouts, we’re ready to welcome you with open arms.
Our location makes us ideal for both leisure and business. We border Lanseria Airport, offering convenience without sacrificing tranquillity. Johannesburg and Sandton are just 40 minutes away, making us a perfect countryside base for travellers, families, couples, and groups.
Whether you’re planning a quiet getaway, a family stay, a school reunion, farmers’ gathering, golf tour, milestone birthday celebration, team‑building event, or a relaxed business meeting, we tailor each experience to suit your needs. For groups of eight or more, we even offer Bush Paintball in our natural terrain for a bit of adventurous fun.
Come for peace, not polish — and leave feeling refreshed, not rushed.

Amazing views
The place was really lovely to stay on. The wood fireplace really warmed the place up well and the wood we paid for was piled neatly and ready to use. The Venue has amazing views and is quiet. The host was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely go back and recommend this place to others.

Nice and cosy...
I had such a lovely stay at Dabchick. So nice and cozy. Especially the attention to the bedding and the electric blanket. The room service was also a nice surprise with a very friendly lady delivering my food, very nicely prepared.
