We unreservedly recommend this guest house. You get exactly what the marketing blurb states, plus a bit... And that is the trick in the hospitality industry - to surpass expectation every time. Very comfortable rooms, little chalets with own verandahs overlooking lush green lawns and a large aviary. Great bird life. Airconditioned, ceiling fan, very nice bathroom, comfy bed with... More

For a two-night business stay, the Five Acres Guest House was completely adequate. Since the establishment doesn't offer dinners, just breakfast, the owner directed us to a restaurant in the town which did not disappoint.

We booked a room via e-mail with the establishment for one night, arriving 5 January 2011, departing 6 January 2011 for two adults and one baby.

I stayed in Five Acres Guesthouse for over 3 weeks and quite enjoyed the view, tranquillity of the garden and the rooms. The rooms open up to the garden and I found very relaxing to sit outside while working after hours. Rooms are well equipped and nicely decorated. Service is good and staff friendly. I would advice to have breakfast... More

This was a pleasant B&B. The rooms are well equipped with all necessary conveniences in good condition, a comfortable sofa and chair, kingsize bed, bath and shower and plenty of space. A small kitchenette providing microwave, fridge, crockery and cutlery allows guests to prepare dinners and snacks. The garden is lovely with big trees attracting birdlife. Breakfasts are adequate and... More
