5onwessels

Everything you need for a stopover in Smithfield. The host is extremely friendly and helpful. Bedding was warm and comfortable, parking secure and coffee and tea tray in the room was very welcome. Look no further than 5 on Wessels for your stay.

Nothing.

Gert was a great host, bed was very comfortable.

We booked 5onWessels on the way to the coast, and it turned out to be the perfect halfway point between Johannesburg and our destination in the Eastern Cape. The accommodation is authentic and full of character, set in an historical farmhouse with high ceilings, wooden floors and a welcoming stoep overlooking roses and the hillside. Inside, the space is clean, tasteful, and old-worldly, with thoughtful touches like a beautiful mohair blanket on the bed and original artwork. After a long journey, the hot shower was a gift, and the bed was so comfortable we found ourselves checking the label to see how we could get one for our own home. Our host, Gert, was hospitable and kind, embodying the warmth of the town itself. Smithfield is clean and carries a sense of pride. A restorative stopover. Highly recommended for anyone travelling through and seeking both comfort and authenticity.

Easy to get to and very convenient.

Unfortunately a power cut meant the owner had to switch on the generator very early in the morning which was quite noisey. But outside the establishmen’ts control.
