We really enjoyed our two nights as first guests here! Me and my friend made a late reservation but still were welcomed at the garden cottage only a couple of hours later. The cottage had everything we needed for our weekend in cape town, and was just like the pictures. You can sit in the garden just behind the glass doors of the cottage. The sweet dog walks around the house as well, but knows exactly where she is allowed to come and where not. Mariette is a perfect host: She showed us around in the neighbourhood and was available to help with all of our questions. Although the house itself is in a quiet street the restaurants, cafes and shops are just a 5 minute walk away. When we're in cape town again, we would definitely stay here again!
