A full-colour guide to hand-picked accommodation across the whole of South Africa; each entry has been hand-picked by the authors and chosen for its charm, character and, above all, for the exceptional friendliness of the owners. This latest edition is aimed specifically at those travellers who not only want independence of movement, but also a measure of reassurance that they will get the best out of their holiday and be well looked after wherever they choose to go from B&Bs, game lodges, farms and guest houses to self catering cottages and uncategorisable others. There is also the useful resource of several maps and directions to the accommodation included within the guide. The Greenwood Guides team spend five months each year researching the best available accommodation and select only those places which excel in character, friendliness and hostly arts. The accommodation recommendations are described by Greenwood Guides, and not by the owners.
