One stunning sunset and a 45-minutes look around the property and Roland Vorwerk and husband Richard Delate offered the full asking price on a Sedgefield guesthouse. “We weren't even looking to buy a place in Sedgefield but drove around with friends that we stayed with who were looking to buy and soon found ourselves as guesthouse owners and operators.”
Vorwerk tells that it was only after the purchase that they drew up a business plan. He had previously worked as the marketing manager of Boundless Southern Africa, promoting tourism to the region's Transfrontier Parks. Now, about 18 months into their ownership of In Toto Retreat, Vorwerk is one of the drivers of an avitourism initiative funded by the Western Cape
