Friendly and great hospitality. Comfortable, modern, clean and tidy accommodation. We had our own external doors so we could come and go without having to walk through the main house, but we were connected as wel with another door if we needed to. Our room came with a fridge freezer, kettle, coffee machine, sink and a microwave. Loved the swimming pool! Felt secure and safe. We had a car and the area was a perfect base and the driving distance to lots of different restaurants, and roads easily accessible to go to Cape Town Waterfront, Bloubergstrand, Cape Point or Winelands. It feels central to the whole area. Great accommodation and lovely hosts.

Jacques and Jenn are outstanding hosts. They put a lot of heart into the accommodation. It was as if they simply enjoyed being with people. They made us feel at home straight away. They gave us lots of tips for our stay in Cape Town and the rest of our route in South Africa. It was the best accommodation we have ever stayed in. The rooms were beautiful, clean and had a cosy bed. The whole house is very stylishly furnished. The breakfast is super tasty, healthy and prepared with lots of love. The surroundings with the vineyards are picturesque. Thank you very much for this great stay. We will come again!

The great breakfast, the view from our bedroom (see photo), the old movie feeling inside the estate, the eclectic decoration, the adorable “secret forest café” at the bottom of the garden. Simply fantastic. Everybody was so kind and helpful. This was truly a highlight during our trip to Cape Town.
