We loved our stay at Doug's house. We were met and welcomed by a lovely neighbor who was there when we arrived with her son and showed us around the house (even recommended a great pizza delivery for our first night). The location in Claremont was perfect for us - close to a great range of restaurants, great breakfast locations, shopping centre and easy to get around. The location made us feel like a local and not the typical tourist experience. The house is really beautifully renovated and has a pool, trampoline, lovely enclosed yard and a jungle gym which the kids loved. It felt wonderful waking up every day. Doug was great communicating up to and during the trip even though he and the family were away. Made our Cape Town experience very special.
