A haven in Grahamstown

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.

Nette Lodge für die Durchreise

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.
