Kurland has had many renovations and reinventions over the years, but at her heart, the beautiful estate remains a Homestead that holds a special place in many guests’ hearts, and a place for quality family time and an appreciation of country living at its finest.⁠

If you think weddings are a grand affair at Kurland, just wait until we share what festivities the Kurland extended family has planned for the Christmas week…⁠
⁠
With everyone’s extended families and plus ones coming together from all corners of the world for the festive season, it’s a happy kind of chaos at the Homestead. The youngest member of the family is a mere six months old, and the oldest is 93, so this truly is a fusion of generations.⁠

The roses are putting on their best show at Kurland this season, and they’re as breathtaking as ever. For Di Behr, the gardens are more than a floral masterpiece – they’re a family story. Inspired by her mom Annie’s love of roses – from crisp white Icebergs to other stunning varieties in her Johannesburg garden – Di has spent over 25 years cultivating these blooms. Today, they frame the rooms and swimming pool in timeless beauty. Read the full story in our Journal – link in bio.⁠

For events we love to set up a coffee cart offering specialty coffees, and a bar on the veranda serving Aperol spritzers, bubbly, Pimm’s and Bloody Marys (with fresh celery sticks from the kitchen garden). Doesn’t that sound just like summer?⁠

Delicious doesn’t even begin to describe it! Glenda (owner of the esteemed in Hyde Park, Johannesburg) and her sister Di Behr (part of Kurland’s founding family) worked their foodie magic for a recent Kurland wedding – and let’s just say, it was a masterpiece.
