I Love Polokwane Because …

Updated Tuesday, 4 June 2024

Hi, I’m Janine Bornman from Cycad Guest House in Polokwane.

Polokwane IS BEST KNOWN FOR being the largest growing city in the Bushveld.

GET YOUR PICTURE TAKEN AT Shabby Chic – you’ll be surrounded by quirky vintage decor and unique little corners and surprises.

The Stadium in Polokwane

THE BEST Bushveld PICTURES CAN BE TAKEN AT the Polokwane Game Reserve.

OTHER HAPPY SNAPS AT the Farmyard Trading Post.

WHEN THE WEATHER’S GOOD, I LIKE TO take a trip to Haenertsburg to the Wegraakbos Cheese Factory and the Magoebaskloof Adventure Camp.

WHEN THE WEATHER’S BAD, I LIKE TO enjoy a five course dinner at Saskia Fine Dining Restaurant.

I THINK THE BEST TIME OF YEAR TO VISIT IS September to December, BECAUSE of the beautiful Limpopo sunsets.

MY FAVOURITE BREAKFAST SPOT IS Coco Affair Coffee Shop.

FOR LUNCH, I SUGGEST again Coco Affair Coffee Shop!

MY FAVOURITE RESTAURANT IS Saskia Fine Dining, TRY THE Duo of Venison and Beef.

Polokwane Bird Sanctuary

BEST LATE NIGHT SNACK FROM McDonalds McFlurries – 24 Hours.

FOR A NIGHT OUT ON THE TOWN TRY Rhapsody’s.

IF YOU WANT TO MEET LOCALS, GO TO Morgan’s.

Polokwane’s BEST KEPT SECRET IS Vleis Lapa’s Biltong recipe.

MY FAVOURITE THING TO DO WITH FRIENDS IS braai in the Polokwane Game Reserve.

FOR SOME CULTURE, I LIKE TO GO TO Bakone Malapa Museum.

TO RELAX AND RESTORE MY SOUL, I LIKE TO go to the Camelot Spa.

IF YOU’RE FEELING ADVENTUROUS, TRY Magoebas Kloof Adventure Camp.

MY FAVOURITE WALK / HIKE / DRIVE IS Wolkberge.

MY FAVOURITE furniture and decor SHOP IS Yellow Lemon Tree.

MY FAVOURITE bird WATCHING SPOT IS Cheerio Gardens.

IF YOU’RE HERE IN July, JOIN IN THE FUN AT the Wine Show.

MY FAVOURITE BUILDING IS Fusion Boutique Hotel, FOR ITS award winning architecture.

TRAVELLING WITH CHILDREN? A FUN OUTING IS the Farmyard and the Farmyard Theatre.

WHEN MONEY’S NO OBJECT, I LIKE TO splurge at Fusion Boutique Hotel.

MY FAVOURITE WEEKEND GETAWAY IS Palala Game Farm just an hour and a half’s drive and you are in the most beautiful untouched Bushveld.

WHEN I WANT TO GIVE BACK TO THE COMMUNITY, I take some gifts and spent time at the Old Age Home.

I Love Polokwane Because the city is a vibrant Hub with many different cultures and sights to see . The city is the fastest growing city in the country, with all the Provincial Government Offices shooting their roots here, and very shortly it will be the most favoured route to the Kruger National Park.
