This is a truely lovely and historic house. Josephine has furnished even the smallest rooms with a fantastic collection of artefacts and furnishings from her travels. She was out of the country during our visit, but her housekeeper Irina welcomed us warmly (despite a fairly long wait due to traffic ), and explained all we needed to know. Most of the markets, shopping streets and museums were all within walking distance, and the rest of the city is just a taxi ride away. We were a group of 5 friends from UK doing a roadtrip from Kruger to Cape Town and this house finished our trip in great style- we loved it!
