Valverde

About Us

Valverde was created out of the passion of providing customers with a welcoming environment, personal service and a team of experienced professionals ready to go out of their way to make your wedding the most memorable day of your life. The natural beauty of the landscape and the view over the Elandsdrift Valley serve as a perfect backdrop for the 8ha property’s picturesque gardens, colourful flowers and fountains.

Valverde Country Hotel is situated in the Muldersdrift area (Lammermoor) and is extremely well located for both the business person and tourist who wants the tranquillity of the country with easy access to Fourways, Sandton, Randburg and Pretoria. It is within easy access to the main highways [N1 & R28 (N14)].

Valverde is situated only 10 minutes from Lanseria International Airport from where daily flights operate to Cape Town and various other attractions in South Africa. Its excellent location makes Valverde ideal for weddings, day conferences, company breakaways, and international and business travellers.

Valverde lies on the brink of the Cradle of Humankind – a listed World Heritage Site where our ancestors once roamed free. The Cradle of Humankind and its surrounds offer game watching and fine cuisine to the discerning connoisseur.
