OUR STORY

Welcome to the warm hospitality and ambience of Cranko’s Creek, a privately owned home, occupied by the owners.  We are a destination venue with lots to offer. Situated in a mountainous, lush green landscape,

you can visit us to enjoy the picnic & braai area or the pool.

 

Our Chapel with a rose garden pathway and Chapel Bell is a short walk to the perfect venue for all types of functions including birthday parties and year-end functions. We also have accommodation that's on the same premises as the Venue & chapel so your friends and family can stay the night.

 

At Cranko's Creek, we want to help you to make the dreams of your function to come true and that it

can be one of the most breathtaking moments of your life.

A huge THANK YOU to the Cranko's Creek team. We could not have asked for a better venue and group of people to work with. Every step of the process was carried out with ease and a high level of service. 

The food was fantastic.
