“Rural country B&B plus Restaurant and Bar”
“This B and B has 8 individual units spread round a fantastic garden. All rooms have beams and the upper rooms are thatched. 3 different types of breakfasts are included in the B & B rate. The range of food in the restaurant is very wide and is very well cooked. During our stay we had steaks which were correct as you ordered them. Medium rare was medium rare. chicken livers were good, as were the baby chicken. We also enjoyed the Graham Beck Railroad to go with the steaks. This site also has the House on Fire Entertainment Arena. Whilst we were there when a wedding was taking place it did not interfere with our meals. It did in fact add to the attraction of the restaurant.

“Two Nights in Swaziland”
“This place is very beautiful. There is a restaurant, a bar, and a kind of sculpture park on the grounds. The rooms are artsy and well maintained. Great food at the restaurant, the ox-tail stew was amazing! There is a concert venue on the property but no one was playing while we were there. i would highly recommend this place to stay.”

“This converted farmhouse is just wonderful. It offers scenic views and first rate hospitality. There is no better food in Swaziland than that offered on Malendela’s wonderful Farmhouse Restaurant. They have a great pub, a few great shops like Baobab Batik and Gone Rural, and the whole thing is very artsy and creative. I have been going to this place for over 30 years and it never disappoints.”
