Plumpudding invites you back to old world charm. Situated in the oldest suburb of Johannesburg, the plans for the original building of Plumpudding Guesthouse were passed by the City of Johannesburg in 1937.
Auckland Park at the turn of the century was considered to be "in the country" relative to the city. It was here that many of the gentry would spend their weekends - apart from country houses there was a hotel, a boating lake (where the Country Club is today) and a horse racing track (where the University of Johannesburg is).
Auckland Park was laid out in 1888 and developed by a New Zealander, John Landau, who saw in the area great similarities to his home town Auckland, hence the name.
The names of the streets were all related to places along the Thames - Richmond, Twickenham, Ditton, Wargrave, Kingston, Finsbury, Surbiton, Hampton, Fulham, Henley, etc.
Amble along Chiselhurst Drive and admire the houses of some of Johannesburg’s early members of high society, including property and mining magnate, Julius Jeppe or simply enjoy a cup of tea in the formal English gardens, reminiscent of days gone by.
Plumpudding also offers fully serviced self catering accommodation in Auckland Park and Westdene.
The location of Plumpudding provides easy access not only to a variety of sporting and entertainment facilities, but also to shopping centres, hospitals, corporate office parks, arterials, motorways, and the Johannesburg CBD.
Plumpudding is set in a central location and within 10 Minutes from Sandton City, SABC, Media24, Wits University, Gold Reef City, JHB CBD, Melville and only 50 meters from The University of Johannesburg (RAU).
Our offerings at the manor house in Auckland Park include full service accommodation, conferencing and event facilities, full event coordination, tours and transfers as well catering services.
Our formal English gardens offers a space of peace and tranquillity to read and enjoy a cup good cup of coffee, or a swim in our pool overlooking the gardens offers a truly relaxing time during the hot summer months.
