We had a lovely stay at Jackie's B&B. The room as well as the bathroom were very clean and comfortable. Jackie and his wife Rose were super lovely and provided us with useful tips for restaurants. We asked for an earlier check-out time which was no problem at all.

Cove Rock Lodge on Cowrie, hotel in East London

Set in East London, 400 metres from Cove Rock Beach, Cove Rock Lodge on Cowrie offers accommodation with a private beach area, free private parking, an outdoor swimming pool and a fitness centre.

Our beds were comfortable and it was nice to have a lounge for all of us to be together. Bev was very sweet and obviously stressed about having to put us up in a different property due to issues with hers. She kindly gave us an early morning ride to the airport which is a good 25 minutes away - appreciated that. Good security. Convenient for the airport and for that reason alone I’d come back if we were guaranteed a stay at Bev’s house.

Absolutely everything. From check-in until check-out the host Sonja was extremely attentive and made an effort to go out of her way to make us comfortable. The room is beautiful - sparkling clean, spacious and beautifully decorated. Even better than it looks in the photos. Delicious breakfast and a nice set of options to choose from.
