Accommodation

Windchime Guest Manor

I hear there are gliding championships in the district soon and would like to let you know that we have a guest house in Welkom if you know of people looking for accommodation for that period.

I have 6 rooms available (sleeps 9 if sharing) and invite you to look at the website to see for yourself that it is a beautiful, comfortable place to stay.  There are discounts available for group bookings depending on the number of people.

 

Please feel free to contact me for any further information you may require.

 

We look forward to hearing from you.

 

Kind regards
