The best BnB I have ever been to. Hosts were warm and welcoming. Definitely recommend. I have never met such amazing people. Netta was so attentive. We got to Grahamstown later than check-in time and they waited for us. Breakfast was served at your time, which is so amazing. She would ask the day before what time you would like breakfast. Breakfast was a range of stuff from yoghurts, cereals, bacon, eggs, the works. I will definitely be staying there every time I go to Grahamstown. We had no water at some stage, but that was the entire Grahamstown and no fault of the hosts. It felt so warm, like I was in my Gran's house.

Friendly good health and safe area. It was an excellent evening and we enjoyed it and met other people too. I would always like to be at home there when I travel to Makanda.

Pleasant stay. Pleasant stay, the bed was a bit uncomfortable and needs a new mattress. There was a lot of dust on the furniture and a mould smell. The host was lovely.

Hi Nerissa, We are sorry the guest/guests had a problem; however, these issues should have been brought to our attention immediately, not later as in this case. We could and would have acted on them immediately had we been made aware of them. We do not and have never had a problem with a guest/guests pointing out issues immediately. Kind regards, Netta & Rob is how we solve any problem. We are unable to act when a problem is drawn to our attention at a later date. By then it is too late to satisfy the guest/guests concerned. Kind regards, Netta & Rob

I will sadly not return. Photos are very deceptive in this instance. Unfortunately, this was quite a disappointing experience. After travelling for 11 hours, this was not the welcome I was expecting. Although nothing was wrong, it just did not feel at all like it's a place to relax and revive!
