Ellerman House, South Africa

Gregory Fox, xXxCountryxXx

Ellerman House is one of the top accommodation choices in Cape Town offering arguably the best view in Cape Town. This reconverted Edwardian house offers the discerning travellers true taste of a bygone area with the most luxurious of surroundings. The Ellerman villa which serves as a private retreat for a family, honeymoon couple or group of friends is far more contemporary than the house and its state of the art features will be certain to impress even the most seasoned traveller. It really is luxury personified.

Holiday to South Africa during February 2011

South Africa Review

We have been to South Africa before in February/March when it is the depths of winter in the UK. Envigorating to get away from our dismal weather and the South Africans we have met have always made us welcome. Where we have been, we have alway felt safe although we have clearly avoided the townships...
