A tribute to all who loved and partied at Corner House.

All the good times through generations that went through those blue doors and experienced the magic of the corner house. Many nights of dancing on the dark dancefloor listening to only the best music from around the world and South Africa. Meeting famous, happy, sad, crazy, fun amazing people. Meeting the one who you spend your life with. Patting Spot the dog and throwing his stick.

Walking out the doors to discover its mid morning and the sun is actually shining. The little bar where everyone always bought everybody else a drink! Having a chat with Hassan about life and love and listening to his famous stories and words of wisdom. May the spirit of Corner House live on at Bainskloof Corner Lodge & Bain's Kitchen and with all of you.
