We were a big group and the establishment was perfect. The staff upon arrival were super friendly and very welcoming. The pool was such a welcome relief on what was a very hot weekend.
It would be great if all rooms at showers - but we knew the setup when booking and just shared the showers with friends who had showers.

I had a large room with a bathtub at the end of the passage. The property is in a quiet neighborhood, and the electric blanket on the bed provided comfortable heat. I slept really well. The hostess was super friendly and helpful.

Breakfast was very nice. The property has a nice garden and the interior is well decorated. They have back-up electricity when there is load shedding.
I was staying in room 10. The clothes rack with the hangers in the corner seems odd and somehow out of place.

An exceptionally beautiful house surrounded by a charming garden, in a safe and quiet area of Johannesburg. The room had everything you need for a comfortable stay. The house is filled with history and beautiful antiques that can be viewed indefinitely. Sarah is hospitable, friendly and very sociable. We were happy to spend the night here, it's a pity that only one.

Very quiet and peaceful, with a lovely garden. The room was cozy and neat, with the cutest morning coffee table.
The bed was a bit uncomfortable.

The breakfast was absolutely delicious.
everything was lovely. I would say the only thing that could have been changed is the shower head.
