    Lovely cottage for four, very clean and great value for money. Lovely introduction to Durban (our first visit there) as easy to travel to and from the cottage to the centre / beachfront etc. Shared grounds are lovely and the cottage has more than enough space for family / friends travelling together. Staff on site to help with any queries were very welcoming and helpful - thank you Virginia. Next time we visit Durban we will definitely book accommodation at Smith's

    Well sometimes you really don't have all the words to describe joy, Thank you to the hosts, such a clean and lovely cottage, the plants were beautiful, the view was amazing, value for money. The cottage had everything we needed and more. They placed treats for us and our daughter she wasn't part of our trip but due to inconveniences we had to come with her,the hosts catered for her.

    We have had an amazing time at Smiths cottage! Really comfortable bed and cozy rooms, kitchen and swimmingpool included! The hosts are amazing. They are so kind and really helped us planning our journey through SA and Lesotho and gave us advice about car rental companies! The location is good! Uber drivers were always available to drive you somewhere and it's a super safe area to stay at.
