Description

Strathmore Park is a quiet suburb that is close to all the local shops, restaurants, banking facilities and other amenities within the town. Dundee is conveniently situated between Johannesburg and Durban, and close to the Drakensburg Mountains.

In close proximity to Dundee and readily accessible are dozens of battlefield sites from the Anglo Zulu War to the Anglo Boer War and more. In addition, there are also a number of quality game reserves nearby, excellent fishing, bird watching, cycle routes, canoeing, bowls and more. There are also a number of excellent golf courses in the area, including Dundee GC, which is less than five minutes from Last Post B&B.

The accomodation consists of three units, all of which are en-suite and separate from the main house. Two of the units are under a thatched roof. Kudu houses a king size, extra length bed which can be converted into two singles, whilst Buffalo provides twin extra length beds. The third guest unit, the Garden Room, houses a double bed. All rooms are equipped with high quality beds and bedding to ensure the best possible nights sleep. All guest units are equipped with complimentary tea and coffee making facilities, a hair dryer, a digital safe, a cooling fan and a radio. In addition to this Kudu and Buffalo have flat TVs. During winter, all units are also provided with heating and electric blankets.

Adjacent to the guest accomodation is the guest entertainment area which includes a swimming pool and thatched lapa. The lapa houses barbecue facilities, comfortable seating, a trust bar and full DStv. There is ample secure parking located within the property, access to which is via electric gates with a controller that is provided to guests to allow convenient entry and exit.

Barbara and Norman are a lovely couple and helpful in any way. It has a very friendly and familiar atmosphere. The rooms were spacious, clean and fully equipped. Very nice garden with a sundowner corner, swimming pool and there is an extra-ranch TV room with satellite stations. Excellent connection to the Internet. English breakfast of excellent quality.
