From the moment I made the booking, the process with Barbara has been very easy. We arranged in advance when approximately we would be arriving and Sandra was there to meet us and show us around the house.
We realised later in the afternoon that the internet was not working, but by 9am the next morning it was being fixed.
Sadly it was too windy for us to make use of the pool and spend a lot of time on the beach, but the house was so close to many other attractions that we were busy all the time.
There is a train and busses in the area, but to really explore you do need a car.
The kitchen is well equipped and Barbara had even supplied a cold bag and freezer blocks so we could pack up a picnic when going out for the day.
There are many great cafes, restaurants and shops in Simons Town all the way through to Kalk Bay and you are not far from the centre of Cape Town.
