Overview of Welgelegen House
Welgelegen House is a stylishly elegant, Victorian-era guesthouse with an African twist. Set in the fashionable city neighbourhood of Gardens, the establishment comprises of two Victorian houses that have been expertly renovated by the owner, Fiona Evans, and individually decorated with beautiful fabrics, colours and textures. It’s a place to relax after a hard day’s hiking, sightseeing or lying on the beach.
Curl up next to the fire with a glass of port and a book on a chilly winter’s night or, come summer, kick back in the sunny, fragrant courtyard next to the cool plunge pool. You can also treat yourself to an alternative therapy, massage or beauty treatment and later enjoy a delicious meal just round the corner on Kloof Street and Long Street, two ecelectic streets bursting with restaurants, bars and cafés.
Make a Positive Impact Through TravelWelgelegen House supports Uthando (Love) South Africa, which is an award-winning, Fair Trade in Tourism-certified non-profit organisation which creates a unique link between tourism and community development projects. The culturally sensitive philanthropic educational excursions shine a light on the many deserving, unsung community heroes, whose nation-building efforts so often go unrecognised and unrewarded. |
