We visited the Dias Quilters’ Guild Spring Show a few years ago and were impressed by the massive display of quilts and the intricate craft work:-  https://dempseys.co.za/gh/bowled-over-by-colour-creation-and-technique-at-the-dias-quilters-guild-spring-show/ This year the 19th SA National Quilt Festival takes place in Port Elizabeth from the 3rd-8th July 2017.

Andrew Liebrand:

We had a wonderful stay for nearly a week at Dempsey’s, after having major problems with our previously booked accommodation at another establishment. Jack and Kathy were very helpful, accommodating and friendly. We found the room very clean, spacious and comfortable. Dempsey’s is also very central, so travelling around PE from there was very easy. We would definitely recommend Dempsey’s, and will return in the future. Andrew Liebrand booked out of Dempseys on 30/01/2014. Place your Dempseys guest review here.
