Very nice stay for 2 nights. Very nice. Quiet place.

We loved our stay! Cozy cabin and fenced in for the doggies, ample space for them to explore. Loved the farm animals, will definitely come back for a longer stay!

What a lovely, tranquil, tucked away, nature filled find this is. Though it is right off the R509, the ample vegetation and good placement of the chalets means you have peace and quiet throughout your stay.
There are a couple of options to pick from. We stayed at Oriole and it was epic. We had all amenities provided, a nice fireplace with wood to start with (paid for though). Our chalet only had a bath and standing/manual shower.
Though it was too cold to swim, the pool looked amazing.
The best part is that they are pet friendly and each chalet is fenced off
Highly recommend spending a weekend here. Great getaway from Johannesburg
The Magaliesburg valley offers plenty to do too

I loved everything about the place. Joe is very friendly and has a great sense of humour.
It’s the perfect place to unwind. I would visit the place again.
Thank you Lorraine & Joe

Perfect place to go to with group of friends and is pet friendly. Each unit has enclosed garden for dog to move around in. Nice communal pool and braai area and Sundowner deck. Each unit has own braai and bonfire pit. Will definitely go there again

Great place to go with pets for a short break. Close to Magalies and Meander. Perfect for my needs and a great place for a group of friends. Individual units (private) with their own enclosed garden, perfect for pets, own braai and bonfire pit. Communal pool and braai area and sundowner deck. You can hear traffic on the main route and trains passing in the evening, but it is not too disruptive.

We had an amazing 3-night stay in Oriole with our Border Collie, Ollie. The garden views were beautiful, and Ollie loved meeting the other dogs. We enjoyed cozy evenings by the fireplace and bonfire, and braaied every night. The cabin was rustic, with a comfy bed and heated blankets. We packed loadshedding gear just in case, but didn’t need it. A peaceful, pet-friendly getaway—just don’t forget bug repellent!

What is there not to love about Woodland Gardens. It was like being in heaven with my furry children. The place has such a powerful energy and at the same time oozes of peace and healing. My doggies enjoyed being in the spacious gardens and explored until they couldn't anymore. It was bliss. Will definitely visit again.

What a wonderful and tranquil experience! Our dogs enjoyed the open and friendliness of the other dogs. Thanks Joe and Lorraine for an unforgettable weekend. We will be back

Woodlands Gardens our experience there was amazing the cleanliness, friendliness and the beautiful senory was incredible
