We stayed in Bianca's home for 3 weeks over Christmas and New Year and we felt very much at home there. Bianca's communication leading up to our stay was great, and we were made welcome straight away.
We had my parents and our two young children with us and we were all very comfortably accommodated. The kids loved 'their' bedroom and adored the playroom - it was a revelation to stay in a holiday home so geared towards a family.
The house was more than just a 'base' for the holiday: with so much to do in Cape Town we found that we really needed to relax occasionally and kick back and do nothing - and this house was perfect for it with a swimming pool (sometimes used up to four times a day!), a lovely little play area and an outside entertaining area for relaxed, lazy lunches and BBQs. The house itself is lovely and comfortable - we enjoyed family meals and quiet evenings in.
I've known Cape Town for many years, but this was my first real introduction to Hout Bay. It's got some great restaurants, good shops nearby, close to some amazing wine farms and, very popular with my two, an amazing playground at Earthworx, just around the corner!
Bianca kept in touch throughout, answering any questions we had.
We have left Hout Bay with some fantastic memories, some lovely pictures and a determination to be back soon!
Thank you Bianca and family, for having us.
