The Guardian Hermanus Luxury Self-Catering Hemel en Aarde Valley

What an amazing , relaxing stay! Derek and Sharon are really lovely , welcoming hosts. We didn’t want to leave. Such a beautiful place , will definitely book again. :)

very sweet hosts, beautiful view, very nice pool.

What a fantastic property - beautifully decorated, immaculate, clean and very comfortable. The owners have thought of everything (3 different ways to make coffee and even a Japanese tea kettle - I definately want one now!). Really comfortable huge beds, great shower, 2 bathroom sinks, an outdoor braai and amazing verandah with the most wonderful view. Oh and I didn't mention the gorgeous swimming pool too. The owners were really helpful and were around if you needed any help but discreet enough so that you were private at the house. It is a 20 minute drive into Hermanus so easy to get to restaurants, supermarkets, shops etc. Also close to 2 good golf courses. There is so much wildlife to spot from the verandah - Buzzards, Cape sugar birds, we listened to the call of a spotted eagle owl too. Hard to read a book because the view is so magical you can't tear your eyes away from it for long. We never managed to visit any of the wine estates that are so close by so that's another good reason to return. Thank you Derek and Sharon - we will be back.

Nothing - it is an amazing place

Outstanding weekend. I'll definitely be back. Beautiful quiet setting. Exceptionally attentive and organized hosts. Thanks!

home away from home

Sprinkler system came on in the evenings when we were outside

Stunning views from the veranda. Well equipped and nothing we needed- it was all there. Lovely hosts. Quality everything.

Nothing to not like really. Just maybe a bit of working farm noise, but comes with the territory.
