Visiting Kruger National Park? Have a wonderful stay close by!

When visiting the Kruger National Park in South Africa, there are many lovely game and safari lodges to rest your weary bones.

However, sometimes its nice to stay somewhere a little different - a comfortable and attractive bed & breakfast or guest house.

A recent addition to All Cape Accommodation is the lovely (and beautifully named) Laughing Waters Guest House, situated in the scenic Sabie River Valley six kilometres from Hazyview.  

The location of the accommodation close to the river ensures slightly cooler temperatures than elsewhere in the valley, and this comfortable micro climate makes Laughing Waters Guest House especially welcoming in the hot summer months. The swimming pool is also a wonderful way to cool off after a day of touring around. If you are a birdwatcher, Laughing Waters Guest House is affiliated with Bird Life SA; whether a novice or an expert, this is an interesting venue for your stay.

Tours and transfers can also be arranged, with the benefit of GAP Tours & Transfers operating in partnership with Laughing Waters Guest House.

Visiting Cape Town - how about Gardens?

Gardens is a suburb which is part of Cape Town's famous City Bowl. A beautiful, leafy area with wonderful Table Mountain and sea views, within very easy walking distance of the city centre and the popular V&A Waterfront.

If you want to be close to everything, but in a more quiet environment, you can't go wrong with Gardens!

All Cape Accommodation has recently updated a selection of lovely, mostly Victorian, bed & breakfasts in Gardens, all well worth a visit for comfort and delicious breakfasts, in relaxed and informal surroundings.

The newest additions to the family are the following:

15 Welgemeend Street - a bed and breakfast with a beautiful vista of Table Mountain! 
This lovely bed & breakfast is nestled quite literally at the foot of Table Mountain, only minutes from the Cape Town city centre. It is also central to some of Cape Town's major attractions, including the V&A Waterfront, Table Mountain cable car, many shops, restaurants and lovely beaches.

And this is the view you get from the garden of Villa Zeezicht, another lovely bed & breakfast on the slopes of Table Mountain.
This beautiful bed & breakfast is a historic, gabled villa, situated in an upmarket area of Cape Town. The house is set in an attractive garden right at the foot of Table Mountain, with views of Lions Head and the sea. 

Situated just outside the Cape Town city center in a quiet and peaceful area, but within minutes of the V&A Waterfront, city centre shops and restaurants, and the cableway to the top of Table Mountain. The popular Clifton and Camps Bay beaches are just a short drive away.

So for your next trip to Cape Town, consider the Cape Town city bowl - be close to everything, but in a serene and green area!

Review: Constantia Vista — Ultimate hideaway in Cape Town, South Africa

If you are thinking of a trip to Cape Town, South Africa, this is the ideal place to stay. A luxury retreat at an affordable price in the beautiful countryside, but close to all the major attractions.

The writer has personally stayed at Constantia Vista twice as a guest, and even did a stint at managing the property in the owner's absence some years ago. The comfort was amazing and everything was there, right at her fingertips.

Staff are friendly and helpful and ensure that your suite is impeccably clean and tidy for you when you arrive. Your host, and owner of Constantia Vista, Ian Assin, is friendly, down to earth and always happy to assist you with any directions, tours, etc.. read more and view photos.
