You will want to stay longer at Linkside2 Guest House

The coastal town of Mossel Bay is located half-way between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth making it a logical place for overnight stops for those travelling between the two cities.

But arriving in the evening and checking out at dawn means many travellers leave without experiencing what the town and its folk are all about. For that, I recommend a weekend stay at Linkside2 Guest House in Mossel Bay!

From the moment you arrive, you can expect the owner, Petra Du Toit, and her friendly staff to go out of their way to bring a smile to your face.

It’s probably why the guest house has consistently received Certificates of Excellence on TripAdvisor since 2012.

Guests to the 4-Star establishment have a choice of four exceptional bedrooms with fresh linen sheets, large beds, satellite television, mini-bar, free Wi-Fi and air-conditioning, a full en-suite bathroom with bath and shower facilities.

All rooms have a private entrance and deck, so you can enjoy a sundowner as you take in the sights and smells of Mossel Bay. For your total relaxation, there is also a laundry service available.

There is no better start to your day than indulging in their exceptional breakfast while sitting on the patio overlooking the splendour of the bay below and the mountains on the horizon.

Here, special treats like homemade muesli and tempting seasonal fruit will your stay more memorable.

The peacefulness of the guest house’s location is unsurpassed, and although you can’t be blamed for wanting to revel in it on a lounger, Mossel Bay and surrounds offer an array of sights and events to keep you thoroughly entertained.

You will find the Mossel Bay Golf Course just 800m from your doorstep.

It’s also only 10 minutes away from the Pinnacle Point golf course and you get a discount at the course when booking through Linkside2. There are various other day tours, outings and dinner reservations that can be arranged through your hostess.

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!
