We stayed at A Stone's Throw as a stopover on the way home. What a pleasure! It was so quiet, the room was very clean, the bed was amazingly comfortable and the room was well set up with everything we needed (fridge, microwave, kettle, etc). We'll definitely stay there again if we need a place to stay in Makhanda.

We were met by a very friendly Zoleka, who explained how things worked, and settled us in. The self-catering unit was lovely and had lots of old-world charm, albeit a little hot in Grahamstown in December. It was centrally located in a quiet suburb. Rooms and bathroom were comfortable, but the kitchen was not very clean.
