Neighbourhood information

Cowies Hill is the border between Pinetown and Westville and is 16km from the Durban beaches. Summerhill Estate is situated on top of Cowies Hill and has a great view over the city of Durban. It is a safe, residential area, where you will find security huts at the entrance to each road. These huts control who enters the area to ensure no nonsense occurs. With regards to the weather, we cannot complain. Cowies Hill enjoys beautiful weather all year round and is a major contributing factor to the friendly people.
