The Black Umbrella

Welcome to The Black Umbrella self-catering guest house, which is situated on the beautiful pine forest slopes just before you enter the town of Graskop after Pilgrims Rest. The town is within minutes drive of the world renowned Blyde River Canyon, incorporating scenic sites such as Gods Window, Bourkes Luck Potholes, Sabie, Hazyview, Lisbon falls, Berlin Falls, and the Kruger National Park.

Filled with warmth and charm, this beautifully situated double-storey self-catering guest house has pine flooring and ceilings throughout, which attracts warmth in the winter months and stays cool throughout the humid summers. All three bedrooms are situated upstairs, and include two large bathrooms. The upstairs lounge area is large enough for all to enjoy the magnificent views over the valley and pine forest.

For the entertainers, there is a large bar room downstairs to enjoy drinks, laughs and chats and catch up on a little sport. The large kitchen offers ample space for storage of food goods, and delighting in large fiestas. There is also a fireplace in one of the two small lounge areas downstairs to warm up on those chilly winter nights, or just to enjoy a good book and relax.

The back of the house offers a large entertainment area with an undercover braai patio for guests to enjoy those South African braais under the African sky.

There are laundry facilities in the pantry for a bit of washing or ironing. The Black Umbrella guest house is set in a very quiet and secure neighbourhood, but does also have an automated gate and automated double garage for lock-up and added security.
