Cornerstone Manor is a beautiful homestead set in the heart of Grahamstown's Westhill. Built in the late 1800's, this stone house oozes charm and character. The guest rooms have been completely rebuilt on the site which was the original carriage house. Perched on a terrace above the main house, the guest rooms enjoy views over St Aidan's fields, as well as the hills surrpounding Grahamstown. The rose garden lies directly off the guest rooms, offering a beautiful vista from the bedrooms.

Cornerstone Manor is a beautifully renovated Victorian Stone building in the heart of Westhill, Grahamstown. Our two guest rooms are newly renovated, and are set away from the main house, with views over the pool area and rose garden, and St Aidan's field.

The property is within walking distance of town, Rhodes University, DSG, and St Andrew's College and Prep, and a short drive away from Kingswood, Graeme and VG. Guests are provided with their own access control for the period of their visit, ensuring easy access and security at all times. Breakfast in included in the daily room rate.
