The Furaha Journal
Stories, places and quiet mornings from behind our garden wall — the old streets on foot, a round on the ridge, and the eastern suburbs worth lingering in. Written for guests who like to wander.
Neighbourhood guide
Where the suburb sits, the streets worth walking at first light, the green spaces on our doorstep and the eastern-suburbs tables that never shout — a guest's guide to the neighbourhood beyond the garden wall.
Golf
One of the city's oldest clubs sits on the ridge, about ten minutes from your door. Here's how to play it as a visitor.
Nature
A restored indigenous reserve on the ridge between Houghton and Observatory — paths, sculptures and city views.
Table
Where to eat near Observatory — Kensington's cafés, Troyeville's Portuguese tables and the quiet kitchens of the east.
Kitchen
Breakfast, the boutique café and slow mornings in the garden — how the day begins at Furaha.
Day trip
Mountains, dam and the Cradle of Humankind — an easy day out about an hour from the garden.
