Guest Reviews
- David (6/5): - Home was nice. Location a little far from sites. Staff was friendly and helpful. Property was deserted most of the time.
- Stephen (10/5): - Great location. Delicious breakfast. Friendly and helpful staff.
- Catherine (10/5): Perfect in every way - Friendly staff, very comfortable bed with lovely crisp linen, lovely location. This, topped with an outstanding breakfast, make this place a winner
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Person minding the guest house was not present for check in despite having been told what time we would arrive and that time being within their check in window. We waited for close to an hour to get in. She was very sweet and obliging but we barely ever saw her after checking in. No help in terms of advice for our stay in Cape Town etc. Very comfortable accommodation though.
