De Kuilen Country House
De Kuilen Country House combines the warmth and graciousness of traditional Cape Dutch hospitality with all the modern comforts. It is located in one of Johannesburg's most convenient northern suburbs, perfectly positioned for a peaceful setting. Your hosts offer you a warm welcome with security, privacy and tranquility.
The house offers self-catering accommodation in four different types of rooms, each with its own charm. The rooms are all fully furnished and have their own kitchens and verandas or conservancies. The rooms all lead out into the large garden with spacious lawns. Some of the rooms feature an elegant fireplace ideal for the cold winter evenings. Meals are available on request and the property has a swimming pool.
The guest house is ideally located just 45 minutes drive from the airport. It is ideal for business travellers heading to the northern parts of Johannesburg. There is a small shopping centre nearby with a supermarket, a service station, a liquor store and numerous takeaways and restaurants.

"Dismal, dreary, dilapidated, unsafe and deceiving - waste of time and money for us!"
24 December 2018"When you look at the photos online it looks great. However, those photos are clearly very dated, as the place today looks neglected and dilapidated (I'm sure it once was awesome, but no longer). The whole place is overgrown and the unit is dirty and run down. Doors don't lock properly either and we left as quickly as we arrived (costing us having to find a hotel at last minute). The owners told us they are selling the place, so it "seems" to me at least as if they lost interest perhaps? A review from another couple in March 2017 corroborate and validate our experience (and sadly nothing changed since then - almost 2 years later now). When we decided to leave, the owners also became defensive, and to date we only managed to get half our money back with a great struggle - what a sham. From all the places we have stayed (and we perpetually travel) this has been our worst experience. Make up your own mind for sure, but for us this was a shocker, so I hope you have a better experience ..."
