I bought a flat in the UK whilst living there. I have since moved back to South Africa permanently but still own the flat and earn rental income from the flat. Where should I pay tax on that income, SA or the UK

You pay tax on your worldwide income in SA, if the UK tax authorities do tax you then you can claim this tax back against the tax owing in SA.
