Description

Both B&B and self-catering accommodation in one, the good quality beds and linens, electric blankets, DSTV, Free WiFi, generous sized full bathroom, kitchen/lounge and dining area provide everything you need to have a comfortable night's stay. This accommodation is powered by solar energy, ensuring no disruptions from municipal power outages.

The Bluegum Cottage is set in a large private property with lots of secure off-street parking, it lies in a quiet and peaceful area of Smithfield which is also far away from the sounds of traffic on the N6 which passes through town. Privacy, peace and quiet ensure a good night's sleep.

There are three rooms, two bedrooms with queen size beds and another large room with the kitchen/dining/lounge area and two single beds. One bedroom is upstairs (steep stairs not ideal for the elderly, sorry) and has a large balcony with views all around Smithfield and our “mountain”! Large windows provide lots of natural light and views into the farm-like garden.

The owner Kitty Schneider was a jewellery artist whose quirky sense of decor made the cottage something unusual and unique. Hand-made steps with pieces of broken plates and mirrors at the entrance, the shower floor made from pebbles collected at the beach and the hand-forged burglar bars in the shapes of birds, fishes, cats and flowers, are some of the examples of attention to detail I have used to create this space. The cottage is also spacious, simple and uncluttered.

There are 2 dogs and 1 cat on the property, so pets are only allowed with prior arrangements. There is plenty of space in the garden for children to run around. There is free WIFI too. I do also make very delicious dinners for guests with prior arrangements. Cereals/tea and coffee are included in the accommodation price.
