Fodor's Expert Review Belgravia Bed and Breakfast

10 Elsemere Rd., Kimberley, Northern Cape, 8300, South Africa Fodor's Choice

In a 100-year-old house on leafy Elsemere Road, in the heart of historic Belgravia, this charming guesthouse is within easy walking distance of many of Kimberley's historic attractions, including the McGregor Museum, Dunluce, and the Rudd House. The furnishings are tasteful and homey and include antique wooden furniture, Persian carpets, and prints of Dutch masters and South African landscapes. In addition to two rooms in the main house, one of which has its bathroom outside the room, there is a self-catering cottage. It retains its original Oregon pine floors and pressed steel ceilings. Most of the cupboards are original, glowing with a new coat of paint.
