Battiss Guest House

Battiss Guest House Bed & Breakfast accommodation in Lynnwood Gauteng

Description

This legendary house was originally designed by Norman Eaton for world-famous South African Artist Walter Battiss in 1939.  Rescued from being demolished, Battiss House was lovingly renovated in 1986.  The gleaming wooden floor and rounded windows (from Pretoria Boys High School) the Battiss murials on walls and bathroom floor have been kept intact.  Since 1989, Battiss Guest House has been owned and managed by Ray Zeederberg and her friendly staff.  Long or short stays are welcomed, and the house provides an ideal environment for work or socialise in a comfortable, homely atmosphere.  It is just 2km from the N1 national highway to Johannesburg International Airport which is only +/- 45 kms.  There is also very easy access to the N4 which leads to the Kruger National Park.
