Description

Twickenham Guest House is an owner-run guest house offering superior accommodation and warm hospitality in a peaceful environment, yet it is only minutes away from the heart of Africa's liveliest city.

Built in 1898, only 12 years after gold was discovered in Johannesburg, the majestic old manor was one of the first houses to be built in Auckland Park. It has been a home to some of Joahnnesburg's most prominent families, including the Garlicks family and after that the Du Plessis family for some 41 years. The house has been carefully restored to reflect its distinguished heritage, characterized by the old world charm and comfort of high pressed steel ceilings, thick walls and wooden floors.

Set in an English country garden with a gazebo and conservatory for guests' relaxation, this gracious home offers superb accommodation and excellent food along with personal attention and care.

Spacious en-suite rooms offer old-fashioned comfort combined with modern conveniences. Handsome period pieces create a relaxed sense of elegance with fresh flowers and complimentary sherry for the additional enjoyment of guests.

Kruger Park - Satara (Website)

Satara is a busy camp, and not without reason. It is situated in an excellent game viewing area, with the bush relatively open and the animals plentiful and diverse. The camp itself has a rustic charm, with the bulk of the accommodation set out in a series of circles. Satara is well wooded and the bird-life is prolific. At night the clink of fruit bats is fused with the chirping of cicadas and crickets. The calls of owls and nightjars add to the symphony that is punctuated intermittently by the whoop of hyena, the screech of jackal and the roars of lion.
