Devonport House - Constantia

Devonport House is absolutely stunning, in a peacefull area of Constantia. The grounds and swimming pool are very well maintained. Our room, with a balcony, had beautiful views over the vineyards towards the Franschhoek and Stellenbosch mountains and surpassed our expectations. Jaques and Jennie were the perfect hosts. All of the staff were very helpful and friendly, meeting our needs entirely. The continental breakfast buffet was plentiful and the use of the honesty bar, with refreshments and drinks available throughout the day, was an added bonus. Having the use of a driver to take us wherever we wanted to visit was very useful.

There was nothing to dislike about Devonport House. It was a joy to walk through the vinyard at the end of the garden to the restaurants of the Groot Constantia Wine Estate, especially as the sun was setting. They even have their own resident Peacock, Louis, who regularly came up to the house and gave a magnificent display of his feathers!

Loved everything at Devonport House! Luxurious accommodation with thoughtful and comfortable facilities and exceptional hosts that made our stay blissful. Loved taking a morning vineyard walk through neighbouring Groot Constantia which was followed by a hearty breakfast at Devonport House. Jacques and Jenn catered so well for us with healthy vegetarian and vegan options which we appreciated, especially plant based milk. The little details and gestures such as the provision of an afternoon cake in the lounge and little chocolate at our bedside every night added a personal touch to an already lovely stay. The ambience of their Constantia home, their cute dogs, the magnificent peacock and the stunning garden is ideal for a peaceful and relaxing stay in Cape Town. Every interaction with Jacques, Jenn, Pinto and the rest of the Devonport House team has been so warm and welcoming and they really set the standard as hosts. We will definitely be back.... for longer!

Nothing at all!

Jacques is the perfect host. His staff was exceptionally kind and welcoming.

We picked this guesthouse to be able to stay within a short drive/walk from Constantia and the area. The owners were friendly and welcoming, we had a room with a nice outline, which had all we needed, incl. vanity set and hairdryer in the bathroom, nice courtesy tray in the room and enough space for our luggage. The breakfast was rather good, we enjoyed decent coffee - and there was a nice selection of wines for the evening. Would definitely stay here again.
