Stonehenge in Africa

Vaal River (outside Parys), Parys, Free State 10–368 guestsRRR · Premium

Overview & Capacity

Stonehenge is the Vaal-belt conference lodge that actually scales - five air-conditioned rooms to 368 on the river inside the Vredefort Dome World Heritage Site, with team-building packages and a solid 4.0 rating. Its catchment is really Gauteng: 140 kilometres from Johannesburg versus 250 from Bloemfontein, so it draws corporate weekends down from the north. The AV is basic and reviewers keep warning about the last stretch of potholed access road, so B&W spec's modern kit and briefs coach drivers. For a larger Parys conference-plus-team-building drawing on the Gauteng market, it's the strongest Vaal option.

B&W Production Notes

  • Medium - 5 air-conditioned rooms to 368; AV fairly basic
B&W Verdict

The Vaal's real conference room. 368 on the river, Gauteng-close - bring modern AV and warn the coaches about the last 20 km.
