Located in Pietermaritzburg, 3.7 km from KwaZulu-Natal Museum, Taunton Manor provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace.

I appreciated the fact that the receptionist went above and beyond to make me comfortable. I arrived in the midst of a storm and couldn't get out of my car. She allowed me to drive around the house and also moved me to a different room so that I was not exposed to the rain. The room was spacious and exceptionally clean.

    The BnB was absolutely charming. The attention to detail with regards to amenities, crockery, cutlery and personal hygiene products was above and beyond. Fresh fluffy new white towels and large shower was a bonus. Plenty of fresh milk for tea and coffee in the fridge, yogurt muesli and rusks for breakfast in the cottage as well as the option of a full English breakfast served personally by the BnB hosts was delicious. I would definitely recommend Equestre BnB to fellow travellers.

    Great value for money. As advertised in the photos. Clean. Very safe with 24hr security personnel at the gate. Very comfortable beds. Clean towels and bedding. Spacious. Enough cooking utensils for a true self-catering experience. Fast WiFi speed. Quiet place for great relaxation, with no noise from the neighbours. The host was great, kept checking up on us and very responsive. Only problem was the route to town during peak hours, but manageable.
