Yellow Piano Inn & Burg Lengeling Backpackers

Yellow Piano Inn & Burg Lengeling Backpackers is located on a small hill in the beautiful Manley Flats valley just 20 km from Grahamstown, the 'City of the Saints' with it's famed architectural and cultural heritage.

Accommodation:

The architecture of the many forts of Frontier Country and towers of Grahamstown inspired the main structures of Yellow Piano Inn at the farm Burg Lengeling. Using contemporary materials concrete and bottle art became a consistent feature. The cottages are each furnished in different themes: romantic or chaste, afro-kitsch or colonial. Some of them have en suite bathrooms with showers, TV and tea & coffee facilities. Self-catering facilities are available in the communal kitchen.

Venue & dining:

The venue and the cottages are on top of a small hill with stunning views of nature and sky in all directions. The beautiful nature invites for walks and picnics. The bush and grassland slopes down to a cosy meadow at the Blaauwkrantz River with alluring spots to sit down and let go.

Guests can enjoy a relaxing walk over the farm, watch birds and discover wildlife. Cloudless nights may invite stargazing. Hot summer days and evenings can be spent in and around the pool, while chilly evenings in winter are pleasant at the fire place sipping bone-warming Gluhwein.

In our large dining hall guests can dine fine or have a delicious breakfast. A fully licensed bar and braai facilities are available.

Our menu varies and may be inspired by the wishes of our valued guests. Feel free to indicate your or your loved ones cravings and favourites when booking!
