Company info

Ben’s Bed & Breakfast has been the family home of the beloved actor Ben Kruger and I, his wife of 38 years, for close on 30 years. It is a wonderful, rambling, old, grand Brooklyn home from the early 1940s - probably. It has a great sense of peace and steadfastness, set in a charming big garden with a swimming pool to cool down in, warm from exposure to our African sun. It is centrally situated yet away from the craziness of our city lives. When you are next in Pretoria, spend your time here and recapture a little of your inner soul. We look forward to welcoming you.
