  The ONLY guide to small (1-20 rooms), good-value, intimate, interesting, unusual, off-the-beaten track but, above all, friendly places to stay in South Africa. The perfect companion for those sick of homogenous over-priced hotel rooms or half-hearted guest houses. We have now been researching exciting places to stay across Southern Africa for 16 years. Each place has been visited, chosen and independently described by the authors. We only feature those places that WE PARTICULARLY LIKE.We have chosen according to character and atmosphere, as well as comfort and style. Descriptions, written by the authors, evoke the character of a place with humour and anecdote and in language far-removed from the estate-agent's patter of every other accommodation guide. Two colour photos and clear directions for each property, 20 pages of colour mapsand two indexes make the book easy to use. There is no bookshelf competition for this guide book, which unifies personal choice and independent writing with a full-colour format.This is the 14th edition. This title is now well established as an annual edition.
