    All good.

    My daughter has been for one night in the Farmhouse and the room was perfect. She loved the design of the house and the owners were so lovely with her. They cooked breakfast for her and it was really really good.

    There is absolutely nothing I can fault them on.

    Everything. The hosts Bill and his wife were accommodating and friendly. My unit was clean and comfortable. And lastly but not least I had breakfast and dinner there and it was devine. I couldn't have asked for anything better. I would recommend it to anyone who is travelling in the Eastern Cape.

    Very quiet and private room above owner's house, More like an AirBnB. It has a nice view of a tree-lined street and open bushy plot beyond. Very convenient location. I loved the farmhouse style. I'm just unsure of the breakfast situation. I didn't get any. Maybe because I had to leave early for the airport -- although they didn't mention breakfast. I don't know! It was fine though - no biggie. I would suggest that since it's called a Bed and Breakfast, maybe leave something like muffins, juice and yoghurt in the fridge for early risers? I imagine many people choose this lodge as it's 5 minutes from the airport. :)

    We stayed for 8 nights, so a slightly larger fridge would’ve been more convenient, but what was provided was sufficient

    Conveniently located nearby a number of quality restaurants offering various cuisine, as well as, other businesses providing general day-to-day necessities and services. Centrally located to shopping malls, major routes, the airport and the beach. The warm welcome received upon arrival was fantastic. Bills’ knowledge of the area and general recommendations were spot on and made our stay more pleasant. The housekeeping and overall cleanliness was superb, the facilities, excellent and the value for money, outstanding. We, a family of 5, really enjoyed every aspect of our stay. It felt like a home away from home. A customer for life. We will definitely be returning and undoubtedly be recommending The Farmhouse to others.

    The owners, Bill and his wife, are very kind. It was perfect for our overnight-stay. The farmhouse is just 5 mins by taxi or car to the airport and it is really cozy. We recommend the Farmhouse B&B.

    The supper and breakfast tasted excellent and were very well presented. I also enjoyed the comfortable feel of the house, and that the Oregon Pine staircase was a feature, not just a way of getting upstairs.

    The communal bar fridge didn't work for me. Free WiFi, but only in the bathroom! - I would suggest boosters within the property.

    Well positioned in the suburb, walking distance to most coffee shops and generally quiet from traffic in the evenings. Focus on security was appreciated and welcome. The owners were very friendly and accomodating.

    The host was communicative and made check-in easy. My room was clean, spacious, and well-maintained. Breakfast was delicious and exceeded my expectations. The location was conveniently included in the Bazbus drop-off point. Bill was very kind; he lent me binoculars and a bird guidebook for my safari trip.
