Dusk to Dawn B&B


Very nice stay accept for the small dogs that kept on barking at the farm animals. Food was fabulous and the farm atmosphere did us all good. Thank you very much.

Description



Dusk to Dawn is a spacious country house in the most southern tip of Mpumalanga - the place of the rising sun.

Johann and Gudrun Engelbrecht have turned their family home into a friendly and welcoming half-way stop for tourists and visitors en route on the N2 from the Kruger National Park or Gauteng to the Kwa-Zulu Natal North Coast or vice versa.

Dusk to Dawn has been a Finalist in the AA Accommodation Awards for several years and was the Winner in the Farm Accommodation Category for the year 2001, 2003 and 2005, and also features the AA Superior Grading Endorsement.

Furthermore Dusk to Dawn is a regular feature in the Portfolio Bed and Breakfast Collection. We have been awarded the Tourism Grading Council 4 star award.

A full English and Continental breakfast is served in the beautiful dining room or on the verandah with a stunning view onto the large garden and the wide open spaces of this well managed 1800 ha farm. Dinner is served on request.

There are 2 cosy family units known as 'Barbets Corner' and 'Egrets View' and 2 en-suite bedrooms 'Sunbirds View' and 'Hadedas Nest'.
