The Oak Cottage is a lovely home away from home. From the first moment you enter the property you feel like you've arrived at a familiar destination. The house is easy to navigate and finding your way around the kitchen is a breeze. Jane left clear instructions on how to operate some of the more advanced amenities like the washing machine and alarm system. The courtyard is the perfect spot to escape the Capetonian wind, and we spent nearly every night out there for dinner and snuggled under the blankets on the massive sofa. Newland is a lovely residential area, offering quaint coffee shops and shopping can be done on the main street or at Cavendish Square, which is a 5 minute drive. This home is truly magnificent, and we look forward to our next stay.
