Pretty house in the clouds

Bancroft B&B is truly lovely, in a lush garden with an ethereal setting amid the clouds. The rooms were perfect, with crisp linens and fluffy towels. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and the warm welcome from Tina and Mandisa.

Perfect Gem in PMB

Stayed for a night with my girlfriend on the way back from the midlands. The owner Tina was an incredibly sweet and kind lady. With the property being nestled on its own serene little plot of land, I'd highly recommend it to any couple looking to unplug from the world for a little bit.

Home away from home

We travelled to Hilton for the Amashova and were greeted by a friendly, hands-on owner. The property was clean, room was spacious and the B&B is in a superb location to all amenities. This was truly a home away from home and we thoroughly enjoyed the personal service. The breakfast was delicious and top quality, a great start to each day. Overall, we loved our stay and this is our go-to place anytime we are travelling back to the area.

Wonderful place, amazing stay

Such an awesome bed and breakfast. Everything I needed and more. My room was beautiful and comfortable. Huge walk-in shower. Delicious breakfast. Lovely lush gardens. Excellent service and hospitality. I had not stayed in a Bed and Breakfast in a while and it was such a refreshing change of pace. I highly recommend it. Incredible value for the rate charged. Safe, quiet and convenient location as well. WiFi is great. If I do return to the area for work in the future, I would absolutely love to stay there again. A colleague recommended this place to me and I am very thankful she did. It was a pleasure to stay there.
