About our home
Originally a family home on the western side of Johannesburg, to which we added 3 bedrooms etc. and converted into a bed & breakfast in 2005. The house now consists of 6 bedrooms of which we rent out 5. Two double bed rooms and a twin room each with en suite bath/shower plus 2 smaller rooms sharing a shower. The 50 points charged is per room per night including breakfast. Free access to the rest of the house and outside areas and pool. Breakfast is included in the swap. Home cooked dinners available at ZAR 70 each. There are quite a few shopping centers with various restaurants within 5 minutes drive.
Our back fence is the 100 ha Kloof en Dal nature reserve with lovely views over the reserve from our lapa with BBQ facilities. Prolific bird life with the guinea fowl regularly coming into our property. Also duiker and mountain reedbuck come up to the fence early in the morning .
