Place of Quiet

Experience peace, quiet and alone time

Experience the peace of Doornkloof while sitting in the Place of Quiet, built in memory of Guy Braithwaite, an ex-serviceman who saved the Big House from being turned into a sanatorium, founder of what is now the General Smuts Foundation.

The Place of Quiet can also be used as a chapel for weddings. Please contact us to make bookings.
