4* Pet Friendly Boutique Self Catering Accommodation - The destination of choice!
A stones throw from Johannesburg and Pretoria, Stone Hill is a luxurious home away from home, and all breeds of socialised dogs are welcome.
With breathtaking views over Magaliesburg, Stone Hill has 10 fully equipped luxurious self-catering timber cottages, accommodating from 2 to 6 guests each.
All have: Aircon, log fireplaces, & DSTV.
Each of the cottages are separate & private & individually fenced for pets and each has a large patio and braai area. The pool and lapa are central to all of the cottages and the views are stunning.
There is a 5 km walking trail and a small riverine area where dogs can paddle, coming back muddy but happy!
At Stone Hill your internal clock instinctively slows to the rhythm of the bush in the natural beauty of the veld and is a wonderful cure for stressed city living!

"We arrived at Stonehill for a weekend break away from the city life. What a delightful surprise - Caroline welcomed us and showed us to our cottage. You feel like you are in heart of a Swiss Ski resort - the cottages are beautiful and the fireplace adds a romantic touch. The kids were ecstatic in the loft with their own little lounge and plenty room to play. What a relaxing weekend with an abundance of historical and cultural sites to visit all round. Highly recommendable. We will be back..... Regards Willem, Lindy & Boys."

"Less than one full day made us hunger for more. It was ages since I felt so relaxed. The hosts understand the balance between making you feel at home and giving you total privacy. Beautiful nature, yet close to treats (hotels, adventure oppurtunities, etc)"
