Set in 24 hectares of beautiful open countryside, this 3 star country retreat is just 7 km from Magaliesburg and an hour’s drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria. Celtis Lodge comprises the original 19^th century farmhouse and four thatched-roof cottages – Lavender, Rock, Mulberry and Rose.

The lodge is on a farm, so it’s very peaceful and tranquil with abundant and colourful birdlife. There is a swimming pool, horse riding, gift shop and healing room where you can have a soothing hour-long massage. We also have a labyrinth you can walk, and a little consecrated Chapel where couples are married or have naming ceremonies for their baby.

The old ruins of the original Farmhouse now form the romantic backdrop to the lower gardens and the free-shaped swimming pool, cool and deep, set among roses and handsome white stinkwood trees. From here a winding path leads to the Labyrinth, made of stone, which in itself attracts many visitors to this unique and beautiful place, offering rest, relaxation and a chance to refresh both body and spirit. Just beyond the Labyrinth is the tiny Chapel tucked away in a grove of trees.

Further up the hill is the newly refurbished ‘Cowshed.’ Now an attractive spacious venue with a separate kitchen, it can be transformed from a comfortable lounge and dining area to a function/conference hall. It is especially suitable for family occasions such as weddings, birthdays, receptions and workshops.

We welcome day visitors who would like to walk the labyrinth
or would like breakfast or a light meal, tea and scones in the Tea Garden.

On Sundays parents are welcome to bring their children, who can have a pony ride through the horse labyrinth and a milkshake. Take home some homemade jams, chutney and potted herbs from our Farm Stall.
