35 on Basil

About this stay

Caledon sits outside any malaria zone, and 35 on Basil's serene garden and terrace make that fact easy to enjoy without a second thought about the trip. The year-round outdoor pool anchors the property, with garden views from the outdoor seating area and a barbecue setup for evenings that don't require a drive back into town. Family rooms come with a tea and coffee maker, hairdryer, outdoor furniture and a work desk, practical rather than plush, and free on-site private parking removes any parking stress for the 97km drive up from Cape Town International. Caledon Nature Reserve is 3.6km away, close enough for a short drive or a longer walk before or after a soak in the town's hot springs. Couples rate the location 9.3 for a two-person trip, and the overall 9.1 rating from 144 reviews reflects a guesthouse that delivers consistently on garden setting and comfort rather than flash.
