Find peace and tranquility at The Beauty Clinic

12 Tyrell Road in Berea, East London, is where you’ll find The Beauty Clinic. The transition from the busy street into their fully air-conditioned salon is wonderful. After a busy, stressful week, not to mention being subject to high temperatures, it just felt so tranquil!

It is obvious that their staff are dedicated and passionate – they can boast about having one of the top 3 therapists of the year on their team!

While waiting for my facial and pedicure to be done, I had a refreshing drink of lemon and ginger water and was then treated to a tour by Peter, the owner, who showed me around the salon.

With so many stunning rooms, from single to double rooms, couples can have a treatment together or even mothers and daughters.

They offer a selection of massages including slimming treatments, sun-beds, body therapy, waxing, tinting, facials, pedicures, manicures, electrolysis, etc.

I was then escorted to my place of paradise by Katie and Theresa, who certainly made me feel like a queen.

Katie, who qualified to be a masseur with distinction, did my ‘Matis’ facial treatment, which I must add was absolutely amazing.

My pedicure from Theresa, which started with my legs being massaged from my knees down, was another wonderful experience, particularly as Katie gave me a face and neck massage while Theresa attended to my pedicure

The Beauty Clinic offers a full range of fantastic services, including wedding packages, full or half-day spa treatments and pamper parties as well. They are also stockists of the ‘simply bee natural beeswax’ products.

After an hour-and-half of absolute pampering, I left there feeling totally rejuvenated.

The Beauty Clinic was wonderful I give them my full endorsement.

About us

Actually, Home Food and Travel offers a lot more than just reviews of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities. We also visit great destinations, receive advice from interior designers and stop to smell the roses and taste the coffee.

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation? Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose.

Expensive is not always better. Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday. They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice. A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday.

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance. Of these, service is the most important.

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion. However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review. We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience? The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table.

Well that’s our theory anyway. It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced. However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience. In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe. It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
