Places to combine Boschendal with

The Kruger

Tanda Tula Safari Camp

Tanda Tula, which translates to "love the quiet," draws its inspiration from the captivating blend of people and abundant wildlife in the Greater Kruger National Park region. With a legacy spanning over 30 years, this safari accommodation has earned its reputation as one of South Africa's premier camps.

The Winelands

One of the most famous hotels in South Africa, La Residence is a truly opulent and stately base from which to explore the wine region. From the moment one enters the grand hall at the entrance, it is obvious that you have entered a very special place. Works of art and antiques from all over the world adorn the lavish interiors. Set close to the pretty town of Franschhoek on a backdrop of rolling hills, the hotel sits in thirty acres of working farm with immaculately manicured gardens, vineyards and orchards. There are eleven suites set in the main building, each very individual from the other and themed around a colour, with an eclectic but cohesive mix of antiques and art lending both character and opulence to each of the rooms. Further down the hill are the newly constructed villas. These have a slightly more contemporary feel, with brighter colours and are also very suitable for families as they range from two to four bedrooms each. The villas also share a separate pool area and a communal open kitchen and dining area, encouraging a more informal mingling of guests in this part of the property.

Sabi Sands

Lion Sands Reserve

Nestled within the pristine African wilderness, Lion Sands offers an extraordinary safari experience that combines breathtaking landscapes, abundant wildlife, and exceptional hospitality.

Cape Town

Cape Cadogan Boutique Hotel

Set in the fashionable Kloof Street area, the Cape Cadogan is a wonderful boutique hotel. The historic, listed building has been decorated with contemporary neutral hues giving a more light and spacious look whilst the elegant fixtures remain true to the origin of the building.
