Gerhard van Heerden
The idea was borne from the Tuscan Garden layout, designed by the owner and his wife, after more than 25 years of travel through Europe and other continents. It reminds one very distinctively of the age-old gardens present through the beautiful countryside of Italy. The garden was further inspired after a very special journey through Hungary and the beautiful garden settings on the grounds of the
Budapest Palace.
The Tuscan Garden, and home, was put together over a period of many years.
The result: set in the midst of “The Tuscan Garden”, a beautiful home with three exclusive, intimate, and romantic rooms available on a “booking only” basis.
As you enter the home, you are greeted by a fusion of exquisite cultural designs from various countries across the globe.
The home’s reception and interior welcome you in truly East African style with memorabilia from the Masaai people were brought back from Kenya, where the owners have a Bible College.
Colorful hardcover books in the reading lounge, where you can also enjoy a complimentary cup of Nespresso coffee, hints at travels of far-off places visited over the years.
Throughout the garden, you will find hidden corners where you can relax in the company of many birds or unwind in the outside entertainment area or on a lounger in the pool area.
We have a lovely neighborhood that is nice and quiet, We are also in a secure upper-class neighborhood .
As loadshedding is a big part of our lives in S.A. we have a generator for the Nessa serry electricity needs, so that our guest can feel most comfortable at The Tuscan Garden .We hope you enjoy your stay with us .
