Your home away from home:) TO BE FREE

We are much more than just a place to rest your head; we are a rustic eco-lodge stay-over and meet around the fire pit on Thursday and weekend nights, often offering a meal, but always have the bar ready to quench your thirst and good company to lift your spirits.

We are 1 km from the airport, 5 km's from Umdloti and with a myriad of activities within your reach, or if relaxation is what you need, Shapes of Africa is the perfect environment for that - Rejuvenate and quench your souls' need for quiet or listen to the sound of the wind through the trees and birds making their nests.

You can drop in on a yoga class two mornings a week, and we belong to Backpacking South Africa, and embrace an ethos of Recycle, Reuse and Repurpose.

Our accommodation ranges from R175 p.p for the dorm, with shared ablutions and communal kitchen, up to R280 p.p for an ensuite room with kitchenette and deck.


Keep checking our updates for events such as drumming circles, markets or quiet get-togethers, where we meet new and old, and breath in the beautiful splendour that is our Mount Moreland.
