Lovely place to stay close to amenities of Melville (though a bit of an uphill walk to get to Melville's shopping area). Reasonably priced and a very friendly welcome.

Cozy, charming little B&B in Melville. Short walk to a safe busy downtown Melville. Also, close to a little hill that’s good for a morning walk. The breakfast is excellent, and made to order with requests accepted. Rooms are of a nice size, and they have a well kept cozy home feel. I highly recommend this B&B. Denise is a wonderful host.

Home away from home This title says it all. If you are looking for a nice, beautiful, quiet place with a lovely hostess, this is the place to be. It looks exactly like on the pictures and Denise does everything and more to make your stay as pleasant as possible. Besides making a lovely breakfast, Denise also has lots of sightseeing tips. The bnb is in a very safe neighboorhood, had no need to worry as a single lady travelling. If would highly recommend this bnb. If I ever visit Joburg again, I know where I am going to stay.
