We stayed in a lovely room up in the trees, clean comfortable and peaceful. Had everything you could need, nespresso machine, fresh milk and an honesty bar stocked with lovely wine and other things. The bed, pillows and sheets were luxurious. Lythia and Phil went out of their way to assist and make us feel at home. We will be back.

This place is beautiful and it seems like you are staying in a resort. The pool is big and the area around it has small lounges where you can just chill and enjoy your time off. You can park inside or outside the property , the area is very safe. The room where we stayed is really nicely done and has everything you need. Hosts are kind and ready to help you. You have options for breakfast and you can order it in advance. Definitely recommend.

The guest house is a somewhat boutique style guest house, with a nice rustic feel and South African themed. It is a small quiet area, but one gets to know the people, also meet other guests and get to know real people from South Africa. The location is in a quiet neighbourhood, but also central and within driving distance from connecting routes to get to Cape Town, beach areas and wine districts. The people at the guest house are very friendly and help out as far as they can.

The guesthouse was in a quiet neighborhood. The staff were friendly and helpful. Room and bathroom was spacious and clean. Climate control was perfect for the heat-wave we experienced. Breakfast was well hosted and beautifully presented with a large variety. The large pool surrounded by palm trees was our favourite area with comfortable deck chairs all around the pool area and beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. Pool towels were always fresh and conveniently located.
