    From the moment I entered the property I felt relaxed and the check-in process was smooth. The accommodation is 5-star with the nicest outdoor shower I've seen. The staff is professional and take extremely good care of the guests. The food served at both the harvest table and the reception was sublime and you don't pay an arm and a leg to quench your thirst. If you're looking for a wedding venue on the West Rand, this is the place for you!

    Beautiful venue for weddings. There are rooms available for guests. Good food and friendly staff. The only reason why this is a 4 star review instead of a 5 star review is because of the price of beverages at this venue. A can of coke will cost you R28!

    Just attended a wedding here. The management and staff were totally awesome. Staff were incredibly friendly and superbly attentive. Rooms are comfortable and spacious enough with all the basics required. Beautiful gardens and peaceful setting. Highly recommended

    I recently had my wedding at Cradle Valley and was extremely happy with the service I received from the get go. We attended an open day which was very informative. Once we chose Cradle Valley we were not disappointed. Our personal Cradle Valley wedding coordinator, Lauren, was available at all times and was a massive help in planning the entire wedding, from DJ recommendations and booking rooms to organizing tastings with the caterers. We could not have done this without her. The venue is absolutely stunning and makes for beautiful pictures. We had +-96 guests but the venue can accommodate more guests. The rooms were great and the newly weds suite was beautiful. The bar is very reasonably priced so guests can fully enjoy themselves. We had a Sunday wedding and once the reception hall closed, the staff lit the fire at the boma area and allowed us to play our own music and we, along with our guests, celebrated into the morning hours. As the bride and groom we also had dedicated people looking after us on the day and they were absolute stars. All the staff were. Go have a look, you wont be disappointed. On a separate but relevant note: Some of our guests needed to Uber home and they got an Uber without a problem.

    We enjoyed our stay. Unfortunately, on arrival, we were informed that we did not have a reservation for that evening, whilst we were reserved for that night and the next. After a while, the receptionist realised that they were on the wrong. We then received a platter on the house. On my wife's birthday, she was treated with a song at breakfast as well as a gift delivered to our room. Neat and well maintained gardens and facilities.

    Did my daughter's wedding food tasting on 14 Feb 2023. So difficult to decide!!! The selection and choice of meals were of the best ever tasted! Thank you for your hospitality, can not wait for the wedding!

    Attended a wedding at this venue. Rooms are great, needs minor maintenance with unstable bathroom furniture. Very clean. Excellent service from the Staff and very friendly and helpful. Great location close to many different amenities. Lot's to do. Breakfast is plentiful and excellent quality and nice portions.

    Beautiful venue (reception area, chapel, dining are)and not far from Jhb suburbs. Was there for a wedding so didn't experience the rooms and service, but would definitely recommend this for future events.

  • 5/5 Johan 11 months ago on Google
    Attended a weekend-long wedding here. It is really beautiful between nature and the grounds are well maintained. Friendly staff and good food, drink, and coffee. Had a blast here. It’s also very close to Pretoria and Joburg and the roads here are easy to follow.

    Thank you Cradle Valley for making our wedding day absolutely perfect! The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking and so well thought out. The service we received at each step of our wedding planning journey made us believe every time we went to have a meeting that we had made the perfect choice by choosing Cradle Valley. Miemie and Beauty are incredible and make you feel calm and special throughout the day. Even though it was your first time doing it you helped us to set up the perfect Chinese Tea Ceremony that was so special to us and our family loved. The execution was perfect. Your attention to detail made every moment special. We couldn't have had a more perfect wedding. ❤️

    Staff and location are amazing! Rooms are not worth R900pp. Food lacked diversity so I as a Hindu had no lamb or chicken options for breakfast but was offered vegan when I asked -wow! They breakfast I did get was cold and had very little seasoning. It had a very factory line experience the morning after the wedding. Much like they just rushing to get us out and into the next event that was being setup.

    I'm thrilled to share my experience at Guesthouse Cradle Valley! The service was truly phenomenal, with the staff being incredibly attentive and amazing. The rooms were delightfully clean and simple, providing a comfortable stay. The delicious food was an added bonus to an already exceptional stay. I highly recommend this guesthouse for anyone seeking a memorable and enjoyable retreat.

    We got married at Cradle Valley guesthouse on the 24th of November 2023 and it was simply amazing. The venue is breath taking, the food is delicious and the staff is exceptional. All of our guests are still talking about our wedding and the incredible venue. Thank you so much to Miemie, Veronica, Rynard, Pieter and Isaac for making us feel like royalty throughout this entire experience and for accommodating all of our requests. It was truly an amazing experience and we will definitely be recommending Cradle Valley guesthouse to everyone we know. The Braude's :)

    We attended a wedding on 8 Jan 2024 and stayed over at the guest house. Wow! What an amazing experience. The rooms were spotless, staff were efficient and very friendly, nothing was too much trouble, venue was awesome. All in all very happy occasion, and we'll deserved 5 🌟 rating.

  • 5/5 Sofia R. 1 year ago on Google
    Cradle Valley were absolutely outstanding with our wedding! I couldn’t recommend this venue enough for anyone wanting to get married in the near future. Not only is the venue unbelievably beautiful, their staff were so professional and made all our guests feel welcome. Nothing was ever too much to ask of them. Lauren and her team ensured that the day flowed perfectly from beginning to end. Our wedding was truly the best day of our lives but a huge part of that is because of the way that things were managed by Cradle Valley, down to the very fine details. From the bottom of our hearts we would like to thank you for being so accommodating, professional and for being so excited with us for our wedding day. You just cannot go wrong booking with them!

  • 5/5 Vasili 1 year ago on Google
    We attended a beautiful wedding at this venue. It was an incredible experience. The venue is about 30 -35 minutes away from Fourways. It's a hidden gem near some mountains and far away enough from the city that makes you feel as if you are hours away. The accommodation was really spot on. It had a TV with limited access to DSTV. A very comfortable bed and the shower is really spacious. The lawns are so well maintained and there are plenty of water features on the property. I would recommend this venue.

    I am not a person that ever write reviews but feel that Cradle Valley Wedding Venue deserves the best review ever!!! We had our wedding here in December 2021 and I cannot praise Cradle Valley enough. The service was out of this world, throughout the whole process from the day we visited the venue for the first time till the day of our wedding. They were always available to answer any questions and made the whole process super special. All our guests complimented the venue’s service and wonderful food. The venue was relaxed and still had the class we wanted. I cannot praise Lauren and her team at Cradle Valley more. A big THANK YOU. You were awesome!!

  • 5/5 Nadia N. 1 year ago on Google
    Simply the best! This is a breathtakingly beautiful venue with so much attention to detail and managed with such love and care. But even better is the professional and friendly service from management and staff. Our experience from the very first was extremely positive , feeling at home from day one. Our wedding day was exceptional and the time leading up to it was well organised, taking much stress from our shoulders. They also went the extra mile to accommodate our requests. The food was fantastic and many guests commented on the excellent table service. The Bridal Suite’s Jacuzzi and champagne was a wonderful end to a long but amazing day. We can highly recommend this venue for a wedding, conference, function or a weekend away. We could not have asked for better. It will remain a special place that we will visit often. Thank you Wilme, Lauren, Nanette and the Team.

    I attended a wedding here and stayed over for the night. The wedding was well organised, staff were friendly and attentive. The food was great and they catered to my dietary requirements. The rooms had great attention to detail and I love the addition of the hot water bottles.

    SAKATA SEED SOUTHERN AFRICA held their 2022 Sales Conference at Cradle Valley Guesthouse this past week. It was a great success and we definitely recommend Cradle Valley Guesthouse for your future events and conferences. The service and food is out of this world! Everyone enjoyed their stay at the venue. It is safe to say that this won't be our last event at Cradle Valley. Sakata Seed thanks Jannel and the team for all the time and effort put into the arrangements and excellent execution.

    My husband and I were married at this venue, and the day couldn’t have been any better! Thank you to Lauren and the Cradle Valley team, as well as the in-house decor company, Suikerbekkie, for making our day perfect and for showing every one of our guests a good time!😊

    Beautiful venue food was grate. If you are ever there they have a waiter called Sakkie, I have never recieved service like that from any person in food service. I hope his management sees this post and is able to relay the message.

  • 4/5 Debbie du P. 1 year ago on Google
    Stunning venue, delicious food. I just don’t agree with the waiters not allowing you to pay cash for drinks and only running tabs as there were items on our tab that no one recalls drinking.

  • 5/5 Rene B. 6 years ago on Google
