Lovingly restored, the Farmhouse Linden is truly a treat to behold. Rated Johannesburg's Best Guesthouse by Top Billing 2008.

The Farmhouse Linden is unique - a work of love that exudes character and breathes history. Far from being "just another guesthouse", this is a home from home; a magnificent old farmhouse, set in beautiful gardens, where one can relax in serenity, and in the knowledge that your every need will be well taken care of.

Owned by the well respected, and meticulous Drienie Cooks, and supported by a team of highly trained and attentive staff, The Farmhouse Linden is a real treasure; a place you can call home for a night, weekend, week, month or longer. For however long you choose to stay, you'll be with friends - and leave with memories that will last a lifetime.

The Farmhouse Linden is not just a place to stay. It's a jewel treasured by many a traveller and is rated Johannesburg's best guesthouse by those who seek her charms year after year.
 
What Top Billing saw in us. There are many guesthouses in Johannesburg, so for SABC's Top Billing and Jo'burg Tourism to rate us this city's best was a great honour. According to Top Billing, The Farmhouse Linden came out tops due to a number of reasons.

Amongst these are:

The warm welcome extended to each Guest is only matched by the Homestead's ambiance and décor
The exceptional attention to detail
Great, warm hospitality and service Delicious home cooked meals
Spacious and comfortable rooms, with exceptionable beds complete the picture
Appreciation of the magnificent garden that has been created to offer Guests so many private spaces around every corner as you amble through the splendor of this space with a gazebo set in the water-feature under the Jacarandas and the scent of some 750 rose bushes with wisterias and jasmine cascading over trellises to captivate you
