It was a good flight from Durban to CapeTown.  Our driver took the liberty of changing his route to our Castle, so we could avoid rush hour traffic and drive along the coast.  It was Just beautiful.

Colona Castle

Fresh fruit, water, tea,bisque  and  brandy each day.

These are just a few pictures of the inside of the Castle.  Our breakfast table, juice, fruit, cereal, and yogurt bar, that we could eat while they prepared the hot portion of our breakfast. We ate on fine china and used silver cutlery!  This was  the view at breakfast.

On the right is the bed in the room that we turned down.  The other room had a nicer bathroom...it was a difficult decision.

In the evening on cooler days, Micheal (the castle owner), would light a fire in the entrance and sit and enjoy the fire.

Dinner the first night was delightful.  Just 3 minutes from the Colona Castle was the Live Bait restaurant and it was delightful. Sea food pasta and catch of the day, appetizers, special drinks and desert with a view for $31.  tip included.

    About  Us

    After my husbands widow maker heart attack in 2004, the doctor said just relax and enjoy life for a while. So it happened: the 43' NewMar Mountain Aire coach was purchased and the house sold....eventually. Relaxing? Not always! We are truly blessed to spend this time together... and with friends. 

    Up Date:
