Definitely 5 star and can't wait to return. What a beautiful house, cottage and a very warm welcome from the owner. Marvellous dinner and breakfast.

Special accommodation. We had a wonderful stay. The silence we experienced here is special and it leaves a deep impression. Dee Dee is a wonderful hostess and her food is unbeatable. I have never eaten such fresh Filet. The room is tidy with a very comfortable bed and lovely hot shower. Even a gas heater for the cold evening and morning. If I lived closer to Smithfield, I would like to visit it often. Keep it up Dee Dee, you have a winning recipe!

Besonderse verblyf. Ons het heerlik gebly. Die stilte wat ons hier ervaar het, is besonders en dit laat 'n diep indruk. Dee Dee is 'n wonderlike gasvrou en haar kos is onverbeterlik. Ek het nog nooit sulke vars Filet geëet nie. Die kamer is netjies met 'n baie gerieflike bed en heerlike warm stort. Selfs 'n gasverwarmer vir die koue aand en oggend. As ek nader aan Smithfield gebly het, sou ek dit dikwels wou besoek. Hou so aan Dee Dee, jy het 'n wenresep beet!

Dee Dee delightful stay! Dee Dee was such a wonderfully hospitable hostess! Our booking was very last minute (booking confirmed on the day of check-in) and she was only too willing to accommodate us - she even made a plan to prepare dinner for us! We had seen on other reviews that her meals are amazing and it did not disappoint. We stayed in the separate cottage - love the layout and decor and we honestly had a superb night's sleep! It was my first time travelling through Smithfield and it's places and people like this that make exploring our off the beaten track small towns so special and rewarding. Highly recommended stay. And Buddy the Lab is so lovely.

A perfect half way stop between Joburg and Makhanda. We will be back! We were warmly welcomed by Dee Dee and had a delightful stay, including a great vegetarian evening meal (booked in advance) and breakfast.

We will return. Our little cottage was warm and cosy and had everything we needed, including underfloor heating and electric blankets. We had a three-course meal with the host, which was delicious!

Beautiful garden, stimulating conversations, you feel at home. We received a very warm welcome and were lovingly cooked for. The accommodation had everything you need for a stay.

Have a nice visit. We arrived in the early afternoon, Dee Dee met us, filled us in on what we needed to know, and we spent the afternoon relaxing and reading in a lovely space. Dinner is best described as a "lekker kuier", the food was delicious and the company engaging. We will be back.

An enjoyable stop over. We had a lovely mutton curry supper and a superb evening chatting with Dee Dee. I think our Airedale terrier enjoyed the stay more than we did.

Wonderful country hospitality and tranquility. Had a very good friendly experience. Clean and tidy and helpful.

Wonderlike plattelandse gasvryheid en rustigheid. Het 'n baie goeie vriendelike ervaring gehad. Skoon en netjies en behulpsaam.
