Our Philosophy
What does SURYA stand for? It comes from the Sanskrit word for “sun,” symbolizing our energy provider and a source of inspiration. Our philosophy aligns with this radiant energy:
S – See the beauty
U – Use your senses
R – Ride the flow
Y – Yes to life
A – All is possible
Choose your direction...
Energy flows where attention goes. We all have the choice to direct our energy toward what truly matters in our lives. At SURYA, we focus on the beauty of nature that we nurture and the deep sense of connection we foster. Our greatest joy comes from seeing guests leave inspired, happy, and recharged after their stay or visit at SURYA.
Horse Experiences
Nina cherishes the healing and insights that naturally unfold when horses and humans connect as partners. You can book a horse-facilitated coaching session with her individually, in a group, or as part of a workshop during a collaboration event. These sessions are perfect for anyone on a journey toward a more authentic and balanced life and often bring profound healing to the soul.
Events, Retreats & Venue
Our tranquil and versatile venue is perfect for your next event or retreat. With a 60sqm Retreat space, complemented by a 40sqm elevated verandah that offers wide, undisturbed views of the valley and mountain range, you will be immersed in the beauty of nature. Additionally, there is a braai area nestled under the trees and protected from the South East wind by a wall with a window in it, giving you shelter without limiting the stunning view.
We welcome like-minded individuals and organizations to collaborate with us on workshops, retreats, and events. If you resonate with our energies and vision, contact us to discuss your ideas and collaboration opportunities.
Accommodation
Welcome to SURYA, where comfort and creativity merge to offer a unique stay. Here, you will find three hand-crafted Mini Houses and one distinctive Mini Studio, all designed and built by Roland Murzl, showcasing his exceptional craftsmanship.
Mini House FYNBOS is the first Mini House constructed on our farm. It was our home for two years after the main house was lost to a fire in 2019. Now open for guests, this house includes an authentic outdoor shower that provides a true African bush experience. Bookings are available through AirBnB or directly with us to avoid platform fees.
Set to be available from September 2024, the Mini Studio is a creative transformation of the remaining tower from the old main house. Roland has turned it into a vibrant guest unit with a small balcony nestled under a cork tree, imparting a charming Italian flair.
Interested in staying with us? Feel free to contact us to inquire about availability and pricing. We look forward to welcoming you to our little haven.
