"We could not have had better treatment anywhere. Bill and Melanie went out of their way to ensure the highest level of service.

First the complimentary airport shuttle ready for us on arrival and ditto on departure, then taking us to the Translux coach terminal for a trip to Grahamstown and meeting us off it some days later at no cost to us, delivering excellent breakfasts to our suite, plus helpful reading material. They took a genuine personal interest in our welfare and needs. Highly recommended - and all at very competitive rates."

"Thank you for the opportunity to enthuse unreservedly about the Farmhouse B and B. It is a truly delightful place to stay - very conveniently placed (a few minutes to the airport, a stone's throw to major access routes to various parts of the town) and in a pleasant suburban environment. The lovely spacious accommodation is a great treat - good sized bedroom, suitably separate fully-equipped bathroom, with a particularly well-designed shower. The open plan sitting room and well-equipped kitchen provide a real home from home atmosphere. The stairwell from the secure front door up to the attic apartment adds to the space and airiness. Heaters and fans are to hand if required. The decor is delightful, period pieces and ornaments create the impression of stability and being lived in. The linen etc are spotless and the overall impression is of a well maintained home.



The reception was warm and welcoming, and the generous parking area is convenient to the accommodation. The breakfasts were superb and extremely generous and presented with warmth and friendliness, served in a charming dining room. Very pleasant background music, with the CD cover handy to enable us to see details of the tracks being played.



Another indication of the care of the hosts was the appearance of an umbrella outside our door on a rainy morning, to ensure that the short walk to the dining room was perfectly dry.



The service provided by safari now was very good and efficient, and the online booking and payment system worked perfectly."

"The Farmhouse accommodation was really great. We had our own side entrance and remote for the gate, which allowed us to come in and go out without disturbing anyone else. The owner went the extra mile to serve us with kindness and warmth. There was a generous amount of coffee and tea and fresh milk as well as cleaning service on a daily basis. Soaps and shampoos, as well as liquid hand soap added the extra luxurious touch. The decor was tasteful with quality linen and DVD’s and television to make one's stay relaxing and fun. I would highly recommend the Farmhouse, which is also a reasonable rate considering the standard of the accommodation.
Thank you, we so enjoyed our stay.

"A little piece of heaven awaited me when I opened the car door...this most friendly lady came out, greeted me and immediately made me feel at home...I didn't expect it to be the owner, Melanie, wow
I didn't expect it to get better...till she walked me to my room...nice and clean beautiful garden path and she opened the door...I was amazed!
With recent back problems I wanted to go to a farm for a weekend never thinking that this atmosphere is within reach right here almost on my doorstep...the whole place stylishly furnished and everything neat and in its place, no closed up smells even...an inviting bed in which I had the best night rest in a long time even with battling with my back the previous night I slept like a baby...to wake up to the sounds of the birds and to be able to go out and see the beautiful garden...wow!
Melanie and Bill has made my weekend away worth it...with their hospitality, the nice clean room, there was not a single thing I did not have in my place or had to ask for but all other queries as to shops etc I was so kindly helped.
I want to thank them from the bottom of my heart for making this weekend a memorable one for me...I will definitely recommend them to anyone who needs a place to stay...
May God Bless your business and always Bless your customers as I've been blessed here."

"My wife and I absolutely loved our stay at the Farmhouse B&B. It started with a very warm welcome, pleasantly toward both my wife and I by the owner Bill. Then being escorted to where we will be staying.
The location is perfect as it is close to all the amenities. With a very nice restaurant within walking distance, and shopping centres within a 2km radius, everything is very accessible.
Bill is very knowledgeable on many things and astronomy in particular, the conversations we had were very fascinating.
We are definitely recommending this as a must to anyone looking for an ideal and very affordable stay in Port Elizabeth. Our stay at Farmhouse B&B was perfect as it truly felt like our home away from home.

Maak nie saak watter tyd in die oggend ons uit gegaan het nie, was Bill paraat om uit te vind of ons nog reg is en iets dalk nodig het nie.
Baie gasvry en aangename mense.
Die plekkie is pragtig ingerig en gee rerig daardie plaas/gesellige atmosfeer.
Ek moet se ons verwagting was oortref aangesien ons met 'n vorige plek iets anders gekry het as wat op die webtuiste adverteer was en eintlik vroer terug wou gaan huis toe.
Hierdie was andersom...die foto's lyk goed..maar om daar te wees..veel beter..was hartseer toe ons moes gaan :(
Nogmaals baie dankie, dit was great!

(RoomsForAfrica translated)
We have stayed a few times in PE but this was the best place ever.
It is definitely our first choice for our next visit and already we have recommended The Farmhouse B & B to our friends who also visits PE.

They give you your privacy but still make sure that as right.

No matter what time of the morning we went out, Bill was ready to find out if we are alright and if we needed anything.


Very hospitable and friendly people.

The place is beautifully furnished and really give that coy farm atmosphere.

I must say our expectations were exceeded because we stayed at a previous place than advertised on the website and actually wanted to go back home earlier.

This was the other way ... the pictures look good .. but to be there .. much better .. was sad when we had to go: (

Thanks again, it was great!

"Staying at the farmhouse was a lovely experience. I had a warm welcome and lovely, artistic surroundings. Bill and Melanie were caring and understanding- they soon made me feel as though I belonged.

They have three cats that also made me welcome, even though it was clear that they called the shots.

Their B&B has been decorated artistically with a bio-friendly face.

I must say that I slept like a baby and if there had been any way that I could have nicked my bed, I would have.

I would like to whole-heartedly thank Bill and Melanie for representing such kindness and safety to me.

Best wishes,
Michelle"

We have given 4 stars to the establishment but honestly feel that Melanie's breakfast and Bill's act of receiving us at the airport deserves five stars. It was simply wonderful to stay with the couple and it would be at the top of our agenda to stay there again when we visit SA next.

"Absolutely beautiful"

(South Africa) Mr Moodley

"Hi,

The place was absolutely beautiful. I was amazed as I did not realise that there was such accommodation in PE.

I will definitely stay there again on my next visit.

Thank you for the perfect service.

Take Care

"My wife, daughter and I found the Farmhouse B&B well priced a very well positioned and central to all amenities in Port Elizabeth. The Loft unit that we stayed in was extremely comfortable, neat & clean, with high quality linen and contained everything to meet our needs. Although we took the self catering option, we decided to have the full breakfast on our final morning, which was excellent. We had an extremely pleasant four nights stay and our hosts Bill & Melanie were always available to ensure that we were always comfortable. We will recommend the Farmhouse B&B to anyone going to Port Elizabeth and will definitely stay there again on our next visit to P.E."


"Great Hospitality"

(South Africa) Mrs Quist

"We arrived at the Farmhouse very late, approximately midnight and I can honestly say the greeting we received was excellent. Bill and Melanie were such good hosts, especially as we were a very last minute booking, we were made to feel very welcome. Breakfast was filling and tasty."


"Warm and welcoming"

(South Africa) Mrs Twani

"The Farmhouse B&B is managed by two lovely people who made our stay very pleasant and they were very welcoming to my family and I. I must say we had a lovely stay at Bills and Melanie's B&B. The decor is so beautiful it really has a farm touch to it. Will definitely go back there. "


"Farmhouse"

(Australia) Mrs Robinson

"We had a most comfortable stay at the Farmhouse B&B. Aptly named, the 'flat' was decorated with country style furnishings and was spacious enough for a family of 5. It is situated well in leafy Walmer with easy access to all areas and the shops in Walmer itself. Bill and Melanie were very accommodat..."

"Warm and welcoming Port Elizabeth guesthouse"

(South Africa) Mrs Mitchley

"To give The Farmhouse 4 stars almost sounds mean as in most ways this establishment rates a "5+" for attention to the client, but perfection applies to very few guesthouses and I believe there is always something more to strive for.

"To give The Farmhouse 4 stars almost sounds mean as in most ways this establishment rates a "5+" for attention to the client, but perfection applies to very few guesthouses and I believe there is always something more to strive for. In the case of The Farmhouse, only the parking was slightly problematic but Bill was always on hand to assist when reversing seemed a bit difficult.

The servicing of the unit was attended to with slick perfection and was never intrusive. The owners, Bill and Melanie, took note of their guests interests and always offered a bit more information or help. They definitely give "hands-on" management its full meaning.

The breakfasts were served punctually and were real farm-sized portions. Candle-lit, with soft background music and personally cooked by Bill; they were delicious and provided all we needed for most of the day!

We shall make a point of telling our friends and family about The Farmhouse - though in some ways we would like to keep this bit of "guesthouse serendipity" to ourselves!

"One is warmly greeted by Bill and Melanie. We stayed in the "Loft" as a Self Catering for the weekend. We cannot fault anything. There is amazing space and tranquillity in the "Loft". We had a very pleasant relaxing stay. Credit goes to Bill and Melanie on how they are restoring the B&B which is fitting to the name of "The Farmhouse". Continue with your hard work and we will surely visit again."


"Comfortable stay for short period not to child friendly"

(South Africa) Mrs Herbert

"The rooms were extremely neat clean and tidy. I was a bit nervous about the decor with having small children around, otherwise no complaints. Breakfast was well presented.

"Our Stay"

"We sincerely enjoyed our stay at The Farm House B&B. The establishment was in the classical form of an old South African farmhouse, and combined classical South African hospitality with the small town charm of Port Elizabeth.

Melanie was more than accommodating and welcomed us enthusiastically. The facilities were comfortable and offered a pleasant area to enjoy some respite from our busy schedule.

I would sincerely recommend this facility as being ideal for corporate travellers and holidaying families alike.

"A Great Overnight Stay"

(United Kingdom) Mrs Palmer

"We chose to stay here for one night only due to the location close to the airport for our 6.30am flight. We were very impressed by the spotless facilities, security, friendly welcome and 5am rising. The Farmhouse would make an excellent base for a much longer stay."


"Farmhouse delight"

(South Africa) Mr Bryant

"Spacious accommodation, good beds, good atmosphere. Outstanding breakfasts served by lovely hosts"

We actually couldn't bring ourselves to leave The Farmhouse yesterday. In fact we actually spent an hour just talking to Bill and sharing our interests in music. He made us feel really welcome and at home. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting PE."


"Fabulous"

(United States) anonymous

"We have stayed at many B & B’s. The Farmhouse B&B surpasses all of them. Decor, ambiance, attention to detail, delicious breakfast, friendly owners, welcoming wine and treats, and much more. We rate it first class. "

"What an amazing place! Warm and welcoming quiet "platteland" hospitality in the middle of the city.

Extremely comfortable stay in a loft overlooking trees with all the amenties, but reminiscent of a gentler time - a soak in the Victorian bath is a must and marvellous farm breakfast - more than a home from home.

We have promised ourselves to go back again, again and again."
