Location is excellent a beautiful setting feels like a million miles away from everything just to spend time in nature, sit on the banks of the river. Very peaceful. The facilities in the room are excellent, Annetjie the host has thought of everything, infinite attention to detail and just simple touches in the room make it very special.

ANNETJIE MAC KENZIE
Mac Kenzie's Accommodation is an owner run and managed establishment where you will personally be attended to by your host, Annetjie Mac Kenzie. Our beautiful garden and lawn meandering down to the Nahoon River with its abundance of bird life will help you relax immediately . The use of the Jacuzzi, secure parking and free wireless internet is available to all guests.
I believe we should be led by our dreams to be able to life the life we want to live. Each of us has a fire in our hearts burning for something. It’s our responsibility in life to find it and keep it lit. I was n teacher for many years, trying to help kids realize their dreams. My own dream to open my own guesthouse only became a reality late in my life. It is amazing meeting new people, doing amazing things.... enjoying the peaceful surroundings @ Mac Kenzie's. I am living my dream ….
Mac Kenzie's Accommodation is located on the banks of the Nahoon River, in the quiet suburb of Dorchester Heights, East London. The establishment lies in close proximity to the N2, a few minutes away from all the main attractions. Set on tranquil, rolling lawns which meander down to the banks of the Nahoon River.
