5 Stars – Exceptional Experience We’ve just had our year end function at Secret Garden for the 3rd year in a row! It was absolutely exceptional, and will be there again next year! Jamie and his team are really amazing. Nothing is too much for them, and they do whatever they can to help your vision come together, always going the extra mile. The venue is gorgeous, beautifully maintained, and creates the perfect atmosphere, no matter what event you need it for. The staff are friendly, professional & wonderfully attentive. The service is just outstanding from start to finish. Our team has such an amazing time every year, and we’re always excited to go back again and again! I highly recommend this venue for any corporate or private event. Truly a 5 star experience ⭐

Where to start, Words fail us... We chose the Secret Garden in 2024, remotely while looking for venues online in JHB. We chose them based on pictures and packages and what we found on their website and Instagram. But... Little did we know, none of these would ever suffice or do justice to the Magic that came to Life on our Perfect Day. We drove down to the venue in June this year to see it for the first time and get a feel for it. We met Jamie and his Dad and Instantly knew we had made the best decision for our Perfect Day. Jamie is absolutely Phenomenal, accommodating, so approachable and easy going and honestly Hands Down Thee Best Venue Host we have Ever Met!! His attention to detail, his patience, his kindness, his Heart!!! We could Not be More Grateful we found this Slice of Heaven 💕 Our Day Was an Absolute Fairytale and the Venue Was Magnificent, how I wish we could do it All Over Again!!! Jamie and Family, we honestly can't thank you Enough 💕 May you continue to Thrive and be The Greatest Hosts the Midlands has to offer. The Secret Garden is Everything and More!!!! Much Love, Mr and Mrs Andrew & Diana Francis ❤️ 22.11.25 PS, if I could give a Million Stars I would!!

Just want to say a BIG Thank You to Jamie !!! Your service was excellent, what a privilege to have been able to Celebrate Kaelin and Kelsey’s wedding this past weekend at your stunning venue ❤️ it truly is the best kept secret, a total Gem of a venue, the beautiful chapel, which leads into a lovely canapé area and then just a few steps into an elegant venue for the reception. Plenty space for garden games which kept the guest busy and spoilt for chose for photo opportunities. The weekend accommodation was really an added bonus. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff were amazing! After Intaba there is a short gravel road to The Secret Garden but well worth it when you arrive. A memory I will cherish forever ❤️

Jamie and the team at Secret Garden were absolutely incredible. The waitors, hands on experience, seamless service delivery, and food was just immaculate. If you want to relax on your wedding day, choose the Secret Garden. Jamie, we cannot thank you enough for everything. Our family will be forever grateful for this amazing experience
