The Eaves Restaurant is our fine dining restaurant hidden in the eaves above the Bistro. Proving to be a hit with our guests we still don’t know whether the private dining area for romantic dinners, a table in the intimate dining room or the deck overlooking the Caversham Valley is the favourite place to enjoy our award winning menu.

Granny Mouse has released its brand new wine list for 2014, be one of the first to come and try out some of the new wines on our list. Wtih more than 4000 bottles of South African and international wines resting at controlled temperatures in our underground cellar we are very happy to put together wine tastings and pairings on request. A dining area with seating for 8 provides a quiet venue for private parties, wine tastings and wine & food pairings.

“Cigar” (named after the famous American thoroughbred racehorse) is our premium brand hotel whiskey lounge. As the name suggests this is also our smoking lounge designed to allow our guests a place to relax with a good whiskey and a cigar (if they choose) and be at peace with the world as night falls over the Natal Midland Meander and the nearby Drakensberg Mountains.We currently have around 30 different single malts along with a few blended whiskies from Scotland, Ireland, Japan and India.
