Accommodation in Roadside
When looking for a hotel in Roadside, practical travel information can help you plan your stay. At Thanda Tau, seasonal food, a ride on a miniature steam train in the Play Park, the gallery and directions are all relevant. These topics answer different planning questions: the menu follows the seasons, the train ride is aimed at children, and the directions distinguish between two approaches on the N3. This lets you focus on the season of your trip, a possible visit to the Play Park and your route in.
Seasonal cuisine at Thanda Tau
Thanda Tau’s menu is inspired by the different seasons. For winter, Thanda Tau describes hearty meals by the fireplace. The summer dishes are characterised as refreshing and flavourful favourites that reflect the South African summer. The examples therefore highlight different seasonal themes: in winter, dining by the fireplace takes centre stage, while the summer dishes emphasise their connection to the warm season. The current menu may vary. If a particular dish is important to your plans, ask about the current offering in advance.
Play Park: a ride on a miniature steam train
At Thanda Tau’s Play Park, children can ride through the gardens on a miniature replica of an old steam train. This makes the stated attraction a specific train ride and a possible activity for a visit with children. If the ride is important to your visit, confirm in advance with the operator that it is currently running.
Directions via the N3
The operator provides two sets of directions for the N3. If you are travelling from Johannesburg towards Durban, the exit is, according to the operator, about 60 km beyond the Wilge Toll Plaza. At the stop street, turn left, then immediately turn left again. If you are travelling from Durban towards Johannesburg, the exit is, according to the operator, about 40 km beyond Warden. At the stop street, turn right over the bridge, then take the first road on the left.
The distances are approximate. The reference points differ depending on your direction of travel: the Wilge Toll Plaza is given for travel from Johannesburg, and Warden for travel from Durban. Read each distance together with the corresponding sequence of turns, and check the current route and road conditions before setting out.
Sasol N3 West Truck Stop
At Thanda Tau’s Sasol N3 West Truck Stop, the operator lists diesel fuel, toilets, free Wi-Fi, DSTV and a pool table. These facilities are described as available around the clock. The operator also describes access to and from the road as easy. If you depend on any of the listed services, confirm its current status before your trip.
Gallery
The operator lists the gallery’s opening hours as 07:00 to 18:00, seven days a week. As the hours may change, confirm them directly with the operator before visiting.
