What a house! Fantastic views of table mountain from the garden, spotlessly clean and has everything you can think of to make your stay comfortable and safe. We found this out ourselves by setting the house alarm off twice by mistake and armed response turned up in a few minutes! Fantastic location for a base for Cape Town, most places we went to were 30 minutes drive away or closer. Thami the housekeeper was fantastic - did all our ironing for us and kept the house in a lovely shape - Pumla was also great, but we were out most of the day when she was there for one of them. We had a braai 2 nights outside, plenty of wood for it and if it had been cold, the fire outside would have kept us warm in the lovely outside veranda. 6 of us stayed in the house, grandmother, myself and wife, sister, son and daughter - son and daughter spent most of the time in the pool or on the trampoline (or on youtube on their phones, as the internet was perfect for that). We all felt very safe and comfortable in this lovely house and hope to return in the future. Thank you Justin and Lisa - perfect hosts.
Cavendish Square shopping mall is only 5 minutes drive away and has safe parking and all the shops you need. Uber is great, and a trip to the waterfront (20/30 minutes drive) is around 180 rand in an XL - so very cheap - longest we had to wait for a cab was 5 minutes.
