An excellent stop-over on our journey from Cape Town to Durban. Very comfortable and with a wonderful breakfast. The very friendly and helpful hostess also guided us to Norden’s fantastic restaurant in the Cock House in town
Owners were friendly and so very helpful. The breakfasts were wonderful, the staff did my laundry and folded my clothes beautiifully, ironed everything, I never take sucb care!
We stayed 4 days and would recommend this B&B to anyone it is close to everything in a quite area with secure parking.
An excellent B&B. It is a bit out of town, so transport is required. Very friendly welcome. The room has had attention to detail and is an absolute pleasure to stay in, with a comfortable bed and thick towels. The facilities all worked well. We didn't have breakfast there due to family commitments. Loved the Scotty dogs.
Schöne privat-geführte Lodge. Wir waren im Haus mit einer eigenen Küche und hatten das Stockwerk für uns. Das Zimmer war schön eingerichtet und das Bett sehr bequem, jedoch hätte es etwas größer sein können. Das Frühstück verdient ausgesprochenes Lob: je nach Wunsch wurde ein heißes Frühstück serviert.
