We absolutely love welcoming the Gravel Burn Cycle Race organisers to Die Tuishuise and Victoria Manor 🚴‍♂️🔥

Events like Gravel Burn do more than showcase endurance and adventure — they create meaningful opportunities for local businesses, hospitality providers, suppliers, and the wider community. They do all in their power to use local suppliers and products.

The impact is felt long after the wheels have rolled on, and we’re proud to play a small part in making everyone feel at home.

Here are some of the amazing Burn group that work so hard to make sure that this cycling event is one of the best in the World. And we are proud that it's on our doorstep, showcasing the beautiful Karoo Karoo Heartland

Thank you for all you do to make this event such a success and to put the Karoo on the World stage. We can’t wait to welcome you back again!

As we close this year’s chapter on the 16th successful Schreiner Karoo Writers Festival we are reminded that every family has a story… and fathers are often the ones who help write the first chapters. 📖

Stories of adventures, lessons learned, laughter shared, and traditions passed down from one generation to the next.

Today, we honour all fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, and father figures — the
men who guide, support, and inspire us in so many ways.

Featured here are our two longest-serving male staff members, Amos Nteta and Vernon Douglas — amazing fathers not only to their own children, but to all of us too.

May your Father’s Day be as special as the memories you have created along the way.

Warm Karoo wishes from our family to yours ❤️
